Baluster Guard Rail Kit Post

We’ll provide all the fasteners you’ll need, including screws for attaching the posts to wood and plastic, as well as anchors for cement and masonry. The installation process will be easiest with a handheld power drill or hammer drill, and a set of screwdriver bits — but any set of screwdrivers will work in a pinch.

Cleaning your rails is easy! Our 5-layer weather-resistant coating already protects against most stains, and dirt is easy to clean off. Just wet a non-abrasive or microfiber cleaning cloth with water, and wipe the posts down to clear away any dust.

• Wood drill bit: 5/16” (M8) W x 3” (75mm) L
• Masonry drill bit: 5/16” (M8) W x 4-3/4” (120mm) L
• Wedge anchor: 5/16” (M8) W x 3-1/8” (80mm) L
• Lag screws: 5/16” (M8) W x 1.9/16” (40mm) L

When installing our posts on any type of flooring (e.g., composite wood) and it is too thin, you will need to purchase longer screws or anchors elsewhere in order for the products to be mounted properly on the inner floor.

Our railing kits come with the necessary drill bits and wedge anchors to secure the posts onto any surface, be it wood, concrete, or brick. If you are planning on installing the posts on harder surfaces like granite, you will need a diamond drill bit (5/16" x 3.5")—which provide for free. Send us a message if you need one.

To make the installation process seamless, we’ve also included a depth-measuring pencil, washers, and a hex nut driver.
