Installation Instructions
This product has been tested, and is only intended for use on a wood deck where the joists are located
16” on center. Modification of the deck may be required. Do not use this product for situations it was not
intended for.
For commercial applications, refer to the required clear deck space and other measurements in FIG 2 at the
bottom of the page.
Refer to FIG 3 on the next page for the following step-by-step instructions:
1. Find a location between two joists to safely drill a 2 1/2” to 3” hole for the main anchor assembly. Mark
the center of the hole.
2. Before drilling the main hole, measure 5 1/4” over and 5 1/4” down (See FIG 3 on page 4) and mark the
5/8” hole center for the fixing anchor.
3. Drill the holes through the deck surface.
a. The fixing anchor hole can be done in the next step if you prefer to allow for better alignment of
the holes. Mark the hole from the bottom and drill up instead.
4. Adjust the width of the bracket to fit snug between the joists and push the anchor assembly up through
the main hole. Make it fairly tight so the anchor assembly stays in place while the next holes are
marked.
5. Mark the center of the six (6) holes for the mounting brackets.
6. Remove the anchor assembly and drill the holes with a 1/2” drill bit.
7. Re-insert the anchor assembly and secure in place using the 3/8” stainless steel bolts, washers and lock
nuts sourced locally.
8. Bond the anchor according to local code requirements.
