How to Install a Rope Handrail Along a Stair Wall · Step 5 of 7

Beginning with the top set of holes, thread a new length of rope through the first hole on the left side post, across to the right side post, and then through the corresponding hole. Secure the rope by tying a knot on the outside of each post to keep it in place. Then, using plastic attachment pieces (gray in the video) that act as connectors, thread the rope through them where they intersect with the vertical ropes. These pieces typically have a small screw hole. Insert and tighten a screw through the attachment piece and into the rope to secure the intersection. Repeat this process for all subsequent horizontal ropes, working your way down the posts, creating a grid-like pattern.
