NOTES: » TREX SELECT 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. » P OST TO POST SPAN WILL BE LESS THAN 6'. PRIOR TO INSTALLING POSTS CALCULATE POST TO POST SPAN USING A MAXIMUM RAIL LENGTH REQUIRED AND THE ANGLE (32°-37°) AT WHICH THE RAILS WILL BE INSTALLED. DO NOT INSTALL STAIR POSTS AT 6' SPAN, AS STAIR RAILINGS WILL THEN BE TOO SHORT. » IF INSTALLING STAIR RAILING OVER 6', THE TREX ALUMINUM RAIL STIFFENER MUST BE USED TO MEET CODE REQUIREMENTS. » Trex Aluminum Rail Stiffener is not included in 8' horizontal kits. Care and Cleaning Maintaining the appearance of your Trex Select 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. » For detailed cleaning recommendations, please refer to the Trex Railing Care and Cleaning guide found on www.trex.com.
