• The 4 x 4 should be completely “boxed in” around all 4 corners of the
firmest attachment.
• Make sure posts are level and plumb.
• If post is twisted or oversized, trim as necessary so post sleeve slides
easily over post. (Do not force sleeve over post)
• Post sleeves may also be used over wood posts installed with Surface
Mount Bracket or over Tallboy Surface Mount Bracket.
• Post sleeves should not be notched for installation.
• If installing using a Surface Mount Bracket or Tallboy Surface Mount
Bracket, please refer to those specific installation instructions.
• IMPORTANT: Must check with local building code for proper installation
of wood post and decking attachment.
WARNING: Post sleeves are not designed to be used in
structural applications. Therefore, they should not be used
where they may be subject to weight bearing applications
such as supports for a roof of a porch or deck.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the
DRIVE TOOL/DRILL
is configured or set
to use the SCREW
setting when driving
and/or tightening all
FASTENERS.
