The Right Tools for the Job

This kit includes a 3/32" Allen Wrench or 6" Hex Socket Head Power Bit with the Magnetic Multi-Bit Screw Driver to advance the set screws that tension each cable run. PLEASE NOTE: The set screws that tension each cable should be advanced by hand, not with a drill/impact driver.

On Summit Series railing, the 3/16 x 12” drill bit, 3/16 Allen, and T30 power bit are used during the post mounting process.  The #25 drill bit will be used to install level sections of railing along with the 3/32 Allen, and 3/32 power bit which will also be used for cable installation.  During installation on stair sections, you will use the 5/32 drill bit, 5/32 Allen, T20 power bit, #10-24 tap and handle, and Summit Series Stair Template.  The ⅛” Allen will be used to secure your stainless steel support bars, and the multi-bit screwdriver can be used with any of the provided power bits.  We’ve also included some spare set screws for peace of mind and a #10-32 tap in case of marred threading.
