Installation Tipshttp://geodeck.com/Sat, 26 May 2012 20:48:35 GMThttp://backend.userland.com/rssRSS.NET: http://www.rssdotnet.com/<img alt="" src="http://geodeck.com/images/tips/tips1.jpg" />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<img alt="" src="http://geodeck.com/images/tips/tips2.jpg" /> <p>Railing post positions can sometimes cause the base to extend beyond the width of the perimeter strip. This creates a gap the same height as the perimeter board between the decking and the base trim. A common practice is to scribe the base trim to profile around the perimeter board. However, this can pose safety issues.</p> <img alt="" src="http://geodeck.com/images/tips/tips3.jpg" />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<img alt="" src="http://geodeck.com/images/tips/tips4.jpg" /> <p>To fill the gap, cut a rectangular, same-color piece off the lip of the perimeter or feature board and slide it underneath the trim collar at the base of the post. This will result in a picture-frame look with a flush profile at the bottom of the post.</p> http://geodeck.com/RSSRetrieve.aspx?ID=6404&A=Link&ObjectID=95898&ObjectType=56&O=http%253a%252f%252fgeodeck.com%252f_blog%252fInstallation_Tips%252fpost%252fFill_Gap_Between_Decking_Base_Trim%252fhttp://geodeck.com/_blog/Installation_Tips/post/Fill_Gap_Between_Decking_Base_Trim/Thu, 29 Oct 2009 21:25:00 GMT
