PRODUCT INSTALLATION GUIDES

Snap'n Lock Baluster Instructions

Save time and effort by using our Snap’n Lock Baluster Kits for your next railing.

Whether you’re retro-fitting or starting a new project, they’ll make building your railing a snap, even by yourself. 

SNAP'N LOCK BALUSTERS ARE PERFECT FOR RETROFITTING OLD WOOD RAILINGS

Replace old worn 2×2 wood pickets with Snap Lock Balusters without having to dismantle the entire railing. 

Sideways installation makes this possible!

With traditional plug systems, you have to take down the entire railing and rebuild from scratch.

Make sure to measure the gap between your upper and lower 2×4 rails and pick the 25″ or 31″ and then cut them down to your specific gap less 1/2″ for the thickness of the base connectors.

Aluminum is so easy to cut and is not subject to oxidization the same way ferrous metals are.

This saves you a lot of time and money. But the best thing is that you just gave your old worn out wood railing a brand new life.

FAST AND EASY MAINTENANCE

POP COLLAR UP

The collar releases using a slot screwdriver.

STAIN OR PAINT

Stain or paint around the base quickly and easily.  No need to use tape.

LOCK COLLAR DOWN

Just slide and lock the collar down when you are done

INSTALLING A COMMON 36" TALL STAIR RAIL

Here is one way to build your stair rail using Snap’n Lock Stair Adaptors and Shadow Rail Connectors.

The elevation contact points for the 2×4 rail connectors depict one possible configuaration resulting in the top rail meeting the newel post at 36″ above the deck surface.

The gap between the underside of the lower rail and the surface of the treads may permit a 6″ ball to fit underneath but never greater. The bottom rail may be set lower to the nosing of the tread if desired.

The angle of typical code compliant stairs ranges between 34°-35°. Baluster lengths shown here assume the Snap’n Lock connector and stair adapters are used. Baluster lengths may vary if the angle changes but rarely exceed 25″.

HANDLES A RANGE OF RISE AND RUN ANGLES

The adapters are set at 35 degrees to match the common rise and run for stairs under the residential code. 
 
But sometimes you might have a slightly shorter rise and a longer run.  This changes the angle slightly and can differ from the 35-degree default.
 
Don’t worry. They have enough flex to accommodate stairs from 33 to 38 degrees.

Easy and Good Looking

I have built many decks in my time but this system has to be the best baluster system ever. The setup is easy and the installation is fool-proof. So far it has survived 2 Ottawa winters and it still looks like new. The only minor point was that each box contained balusters of uneven lengths. Some were 31 inches and some were 32 inches and the 32-inch ones had black painted ends. Was easily fixed by cutting them to 31 inches. I would definitely recommend this system.

Great looking railing system

Needed to build a railing for safety, and this system allowed better lighting and was more visually appealing than a normal wood railing. Great service.

Easy

So much easier than trying to match up 13 traditional balusters all at the same time!
