How to Install Combo Brackets
- Measure the length of the joist, then cut the Combo Bracket 1" shorter than the joist length.
***NOTE: To ensure a straight clean cut, place a scrap piece of 2x4 wood inside the Combo Bracket. Cut with a miter saw.
- Slide each Combo Bracket over the joist bottom. Make sure the integral V-Panel Brackets on the outside of the Combo Bracket overlap the Ledger F-Bracket. Slide the lower leg of the Ledger F-Bracket into the Combo Bracket outside V-Panel Brackets. Align the top edge to the pitch chalk line
- Nail the Combo Bracket in place with 1" hot dipped galvanized roofing nails (or deck screws) in the provided nail slots. Nail both sides of the Combo Bracket.
***NOTE: Nail tight, but do not overdrive the nail.
- For double joists use DrySpace Double Combo Bracket and follow steps above. Outside Combo Bracket installation.
- For the two outside deck brackets, the outside integral V-Panel Bracket must be removed. Trim what will be the outside portion of the Combo Bracket by making a score line under the V-Panel Bracket with a utility knife, then snap off the section with the integral V-Panel Bracket. Install the trimmed Combo Bracket for the inside portion of the bracket. This piece can be trimmed with a piece of lumber.
Custom Double and Triple Combo Brackets
- Remove any nails or obstructions that might be in the bottom 1-3/4" of the doubled joist. Make a 1-1/2" deep saw cut along the entire bottom of the double joist. Trim what will be the inside leg of two Combo Brackets just below the brackets for V-Panel installation.
***NOTE: Notch (with a utility knife) 1-1/2" of both Combo Bracket legs near each end. Notching the legs will help lock the combined Combo Brackets in the saw cut at both ends of the cut. Check the fit of the trimmed Combo Brackets.
Tape the two cut legs together with butyl rubber tape to create a sealed joint, then install into the saw cut. Make sure the Combo Brackets follow the chalk pitch line. Nail in place.
*** NOTE: Decks with a triple joist can be covered using the same method only with three Combo Brackets.
- Apply butyl rubber tape to the following areas:
- Corners where the F-Brackets overlap
- Along the top edge of the Ledger F-Bracket (making sure to cover the F-Bracket nail slots)
