Installation Tips
- Fastener Requirements: Requires four 3/8-inch x 3-inch stainless steel lag bolts with flat washers (sold separately).
- Structural Placement: Secure at least two of the four fasteners directly into a structural joist or beam rather than just deck boards to prevent loosening over time.
- Spacing Constraints: When installing multiple units, separate the cleats by at least 6 feet to ensure the light sensors do not interfere with each other.
