Large Handrail Installation Guide
We sell several components that make up our Large Handrail System. This guide will show you how to assemble them to get a beautiful ipe deck railing.
Our Large Decking Handrail System uses the following components, which can be found in our price lists:
- Rail Cap (Lg. Handrail)
- Subrail
- 2 X 2
- 5/4 X 4
Given the nature of ipe wood, we recommend predrilling all screw holes.
1. Attach the Subrail to the 2 X 2 balluster, screwing it in from the top.
2. Attach the 5/4 X 4 base rail to the 2 X 2 balluster, screwing it in from the bottom.
3. Place the Large Rail Cap over the Subrail. Screw the Large Rail to the Subrail from the bottom.
4. The completed railing should have no visible screw holes.
