SPACERS

Your post/panel layout diagram may indicate the requirement of spacers at certain locations.

Spacers are used to make up small distances in the overall rail length in order for the railing to fit properly on the deck.

Shown at right is an example of how spacers are identified on a layout. Below it is a picture of how the spacer looks after installation.

InvisiRail spacers for stainless steel connectors come in 3/8” (10mm), 1/2” (13m), 3/4” (19mm) and 1” (25mm) sizes.

Spacers for lite 10 nylon connectors come in 1/4”, 3/8”, 1/2” and 3/4” sizes.

When referencing the on-centre chart to position your posts be sure to aDD the spacer dimension where indicated.

(2) x 1/2” indicates that one spacer must be installed behind the top connector and one

behind the bottom connector.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Handrail brackets are installed between posts and glass connectors / angle brackets, replacing the backing plates packaged with the connectors.

Refer to post detail drawings to determine the type of handrail bracket required with each post.

HANDRAIL PIPE INSTALLATION

Install appropriate left / right brackets on all intermediate and end posts and corner brackets on all corner posts.

Remove the 1” bolt from the pivot and use the provided 1 1/2” bolt to connect the pivot to the bracket.

Carefully measure to determine the lengths of handrail required and cut your pipe to length using a pipe cutter or saw with a carbide-tipped metal cutting blade.

Joiners may be required for long spans requiring multiple lengths of pipe.

To maintain a seamless length with multiple pipe pieces use the “male” joiners at the un-cut pipe ends. Rough-cut pipe can be hidden with “female” joiners and/or in the “female” ends of the corner pivots.

Pre-drill pilot holes and secure pipe to inline brackets with tapping screws. 5/32” cobalt- tipped drill bit and screws are provided.

Secure pipe to corner brackets using set screws located on the underside of the pivot.

fixtures (joiners, pivots or domed ends) may be further secured to the pipe using provided glue.

Square post with ALX left and right brackets and pivot on inside 90-degree corner

Square posts on non 90-degree split angles can use left/right top rail brackets (shown at left) or a flange-

mount handrail bracket (shown above)

Transitioning from top rail to stair rail is accomplished with two pivots connected with

a male joiner or short piece of rail pipe.Optionally, you may terminate the top rail with

an end cap then install separate stair rail at the desired height.

NO representation is given that your particular application of these products complies with relevant building codes. All products installed without a top rail DO NOT comply with the USA IRC test report provided by Intertek. Therefore, consult with professionals AND local building officials before starting to ensure compliance in your area. The consumer or contrac-tor should take all necessary steps to ensure the safety of all involved in installation of the project, including, but not limited to use of safety glasses, work gloves and safety shoes. NO member of Liv Building Products, or Invisirail shall be liable for any loss, damage or personal injury due to the improper installation of products, or failure to use all items as per the USA-IRC test report . IN the unlikely event of any loss, damage or injury, the total aggregate liabilities will be limited to the retail purchase price of the products.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Only install the outer half of connectors to posts. The remaining half gets installed with glass panel.

Glass panels come with two top holes and two bottom notches. Four connector pins should be installed to secure glass to posts (minimum 1 per side must be used.)

Each connector uses a 1/16” backing plate.

Stainless Steel Connectors

Use two short pieces of 2X4’s or 4X4’s, sitting on edge of the deck between the posts, to support the glass panels while installing.

Door shims help with fine height adjustments. Connector pins need to be aligned with holes/notches in the glass.

locate correct glass panel to be installed (all panels are labeled.)

Carefully pick up panel and set into position with notches in glass at the bottom.

fasten top connectors first. Place pin through glass and slide remaining connector half into position. If required, shim panel until pin is positioned horizontally, aiding in alignment of connector halves.

Tighten screws enough to hold connectors together but not squeeze tightly on glass.

Once completed, check that all connectors are parallel to each other and tighten screws completely.

GLASS PANEL INSTALLATION

Lite 10 Nylon Connectors

locate correct glass panel to be installed (all panels are labeled.)

Carefully pick up panel and set into position above bottom connectors (notches in glass should be at the bottom) and push glass down into connector until it bottoms.

Take top connector half and slide it into position, then screw pin back in.

If pin does not screw in easily make sure there are no alignment issues. Possible sources of error are: out of plumb posts, posts not set at correct dimension, deck surface not level, connectors not located correctly.

If the connector halves do not slide easily onto installed sections, confirm that the connector has not been over tightened - this would cause misalignment of the two halves.

The back half of connector must be completely flush with the front half to ensure the pin is in the holes in both halves of the connector.

Once the pin is perfectly aligned, completely tighten screws.

STAIR GLASS and CUSTOM GLASS Stair Glass

Stair glass for InvisiRail is always custom cut and takes 3-4 weeks for production.

Each piece of stair glass will require a template.

Please ensure accuracy as your glass will be made to the exact size/shape of your template.

Install posts in positions indicated on your post/panel layout diagram, ensuring that they are completely plumb.

(TIP: Use 2” wood screws with washers when locating the stair posts for templating. When glass panels come back you can easily mi-cro-adjust post positions to accommodate glass connection. Once stair glass is installed, switch out the 2” wood screws one by one with the supplied gRKs.)

attach glass connectors to your posts.

Custom Horizontal Glass

Set posts in desired locations, ensuring that they are completely plumb.

Measure from inside post to inside post.

If there are any angled sections, the angle bracket must be installed and measurement must be taken from the face of the angle bracket.

On your order it must be indicated if the measurement was taken from inside posts or face of angle bracket anD the type of glass connectors used (stainless steel or lite 10.)

Use the Custom glass Order form at the back of this manual to complete your order.

Use the InvisiRail cardboard template/s provided to make a template of the exact size and shape of the glass desired.

Install the template into glass connectors and trace around all four (4) connectors for hole and pin location. Indicate the top/bottom orientation and write your name and return shipping address on each template.

Please include the store name and Invoice Order number (or Purchase Order or Estimate Number, if possible) with your templates.
