HOW TO INSTALL TREX ® ALUMINUM ADA COMPLIANT HANDRAIL
90° Wall Return
4. Attach end cap to railing.
1. If required, cut railing to proper length based on location of wall return(s) or attachment to other components. 2. If desired, collar ring can be used to hide seam of wall return to rail. Slide over rail BEFORE inserting rail into wall return. 3. Slide rail onto wall return until it is fully inserted and seam is hidden under collar (if collar is being used). 4. Attach wall return to post using specific hardware provided (see chart on previous page) , ENSURING wall return is at proper angle of alignment to post. (Wall return is designed to have tight fit into rail, thus location of attachment is critical.) If using metal posts, pre-drill post prior to attachment of wall mount. Wall Mount NOTE: Refer to Rail-to-Rail Connections section if connecting two or more rails together to make continuous straight run.
Inline Bracket 1. If required, cut railing to proper length based on location of inline bracket(s) or attachment to other components. 2. Attach inline bracket to post using specific hardware provided (see chart on previous page) . If using metal posts, pre-drill post prior to attachment of inline bracket. 3. Slide rail onto inline bracket until it is fully inserted.
Rail-to-Rail Connections/Internal Connector NOTE: When rail-to-rail straight connections are use for longer spans, posts must be installed 6' OC max. In addition, a wall mount MUST be used at each seam of rail-to-rail connections as close to center of wall mount as possible. If collar is used, this can be offset slightly to allow for the collar to fi t. 1. If required, cut railing to proper length. 2. If desired, collar ring can be used to hide seam between rails. Slide ring over rail BEFORE inserting rails into internal connector. 3. Slide internal connector into rail end until metal spacer screw is touching either end of rail or collar, if used. 4. Slide second rail over opposite end of internal connector, until it is touching metal spacer screw. 5. Remove metal spacer screw using #2 square-head screwdriver. 6. Push second rail further over internal connector until it fits in the collar (if used) or fits tightly against rail. 7. Attach wall mount to post per previous instructions. 8. Attach rail to wall mount per previous instructions. 9. Use end caps where required.
1. If required, cut railing to proper length based on location of wall mount(s) or attachment to other components. 2. Attach wall mount to post using specific hardware provided (see chart on previous page) , ENSURING wall mount is at proper angle of alignment to angle of rail. If using metal posts, pre-drill post prior to attachment of wall mount. TIP: To help with angled attachment, place one screw into bottom hole of bracket and pivot wall mount to position required.
