How to Insert Your Board Into the Frame
Bottom Rail Alignment
Insert the communication board into the bottom horizontal post using a scissor-like motion. Ensure the board slides fully into the bottom sleeve before moving on to the next step.
Top Rail Secure
Place the top horizontal onto the substrate as pictured, using the same scissor motion. Press down firmly to ensure the board is fully inserted into both the top and bottom horizontals.
Vertical Integration
Insert the board into the vertical post sleeves using a firm sliding motion. Ensure the board is fully seated into the vertical posts on both sides to secure the board in place with no gaps.
Frame Closure
Insert the remaining vertical post by aligning it with the horizontal pieces. Use a firm sliding motion to ensure the board is fully seated, securing all sides of the frame tightly.
Hardware & Finish
Secure the frame by inserting the screws into the posts. Next, install the post caps. The caps fit snugly, but you can add a couple of drops of PVC glue for extra security.
Final Installation Tip
Before screwing, ensure the rails are fully inserted and snug against the inner wall of the posts. Center the screws horizontally on the posts and vertically on the bottom rail for maximum stability.
