NOTES: » TREX SELECT T-RAIL RAILINGS ARE DESIGNED TO BE INSTALLED OVER THE DECKING FRAME OR ON INSIDE OF RIM JOIST. NOTCHING OF PRESSURE-TREATED POSTS OR POSTS INSTALLED ON OUTSIDE OF RIM JOIST IS NOT ALLOWED. » All Select T-Rail Railing lengths are manufactured at CLEAR SPAN dimensions (spanning between space of posts): 72" for 6' and 96" for 8' clear span. Note that railings are designed to be slightly longer than required to allow for very slight play in post placement – trimming may be required.

Care and Cleaning Maintaining the appearance of your Trex Select T-Rail railing is important. Occasional washing is recommended. Over time your railing may show signs of weathering as a result of exposure to the elements. The frequency of cleaning will depend on the environment and exposure to various types of elements. » Clean railing with standard cleaning vinegar or mild soap and water. » For more detailed cleaning recommendations, please refer to the Trex Railing Care and Cleaning guide found on www.trex.com.

HOW TO INSTALL STANDARD HORIZONTAL RAILING TREX SELECT T-RAIL®
» Ensure pressure-treated posts are installed at proper heights so when post sleeves are installed, both the PT post and post sleeve are flush at the top. » If using 48" post sleeves, measure carefully to allow for clearance of both rail attachment as well as clearance for post cap attachment, and trim these before installing over pressure treated posts. For 36" rail height, post and post sleeve should be cut at minimum of 40".
Read all instructions BEFORE installation. Installing Pressure-Treated Posts 1. PLEASE REFER TO LOCAL BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTS PRIOR TO ATTACHING PRESSURE TREATED POSTS.
NOTES: »
Posts are to be installed 6' or 8' clear span to accommodate appropriate railing length.
