Today, we're going to talk about replacing wood balusters with some solid, steel Fortress Face-Mount Balusters. The stuff that you will need obviously are the balusters. A quick way to find out how many balusters you'll probably need is to count the amount of balusters that you have. Just be sure that that spacing is under 4 inches. That's usually pretty common code. The nice thing about those balusters is that they will come with the proper hardware, so you don't need to worry about that. But other items that you will need to make sure that you have is a tape measure, a pencil, some scrap wood which we'll get into later, a drill or an impact driver and a T25 bit. And then something that you might need, depending on how bad these balusters are and especially the hardware that attaches them, is you may need a Sawzall. But if you have all this stuff, we're ready to go! Alright, so right now, we're gonna just take these balusters off. So we're just gonna pop this off. Alright, guys, so now we have all the balusters removed, so the next step is to get these steel balusters attached. To do this, you want to find center, just to verify more than anything. You're going to take this tape measure and run it from post to post, you're gonna find out that you're at 72 and about a quarter inch. You're gonna run it back and find that your center should be at about 36 and an eighth of an inch. Which it is. You're gonna take this tape measure and make a quick mark to verify that line. On that mark, you're going to mount your center baluster. Just like that. After that, this one has a drink rail that we didn't take off. So, we're gonna use a simple jig basically that will line these up continuing all the way left or right. You can go either way just as long as you start going one way and then continue on the other way. This will keep these separated perfectly and keep them level throughout without having to pull out a level every time. If you're in a situation where you don't have this on the top or maybe you're replacing these rails, that's when you can make a more complex jig that'll just slide right over the top. I'll just demonstrate on the bottom here. Just like that. You can rest on there, you can line it up and make sure that everything is square. Zip it in. Go to the next one, pop this off and go to the next one. Continue like I said all the way to left and then finish all the way to the right. Or start all the way to the right and finish all the way to the left. Alright guys, as you can see, I've only done the top one and the very bottom one. We still have all of these other holes to go through, that's the next step is to just go through and make sure that all these are tight and up against the wood. Now that you're done you have the strength of steel with a nice modern look to make all of your neighbors jealous.
