Installing Assured Bull Nose Edge Steps
To Reach Your Assured Deck
Carefully plan the area checking all measurements. Measure and cut deck boards where required.
Fix starter clips to the edge of the step at every 300mm max intervals centre to centre. Screw through the hole on each starter clip with the screws provided ensuring that the screw is fully screwed into place to prevent catching on the deck board underneath.
Fix the bullnose edge by clipping into the starter clip. Check the bullnose edge is securely in place before continuing.
Where deck boards/bullnose edges meet leave an 8mm expansion gap.
Fix metal clips to the bullnose edge at every joist with the screws provided. Place the metal clips into the deck board groove and screw the other side down through the hole.
Fix the inner deck board as normal into the metal clips. Pre-drill holes and screw through the face of the deck board avoiding the groove. Start at 80mm approx then at every 300mm max intervals.
Assured deck boards or Assured Fascia can be used for the risers.
Fix the inner deck board by measuring from the bullnose edge the width of a deck board and a 6mm gap and mark. Fix the starter clips at every 300mm max intervals. Screw through the hole on each starter clip with the screws provided ensuring that the screw is fully screwed into place to prevent catching on the deck board underneath.
Fix the inner deck board by clipping into the starter clip. Check the deck board is securely in place before continuing.
