Fasten the Strip Holder to the underside of the handrail using #6x 3/8″ (9.5mm) self-drilling screws (provided) at the pre-drilled locations. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each railing section.

Secure the Hole-Drilling Guide against the post with the legs of the guide touching the underside of the post sleeve and the small hole in the guide on the side of the post that you would like to drill.
