End Panel Installation
END PANEL INSTALLATION (continued)
Locate and mark the center of the end wall and set
4.
the first prepared panel,
with the UV-protected side
facing to the outside
, in position. Align the center of the
H-channel with the center of the end frame.
ATTENTION:
Consult the diagram in the Quick Start
section for your end wall.
For the 30' wide frame
, trace
the end cap profile location on the panel, remove the
panel, and cut to fit. See lower-right diagram below.
Verify that the panel is square on the frame in the
5.
desired position with the UV-protected surface toward
the outside. Attach it to the end frame using Tek screws
and washers (see photo to the right).
Install the Tek
screws through the panel and into the brace every
12" on-center.
Do not overtighten screws!
NOTE:
Install Tek screws in the channel of the
aluminum H-channel. Do not use washers.
With the panel attached to the end frame, repeat the
6.
steps to install the next panel. See diagrams on this
page.
For the 30' wide frame
, install all remaining panels
and continue with Step 16.
For the 35' wide frame,
continue with Step 7.
Diagram below shows the 35' wide end wall.
Actual end frame and panels may differ from frame
shown. The installation of doors also will affect
panel installation and position. Consult the panel
diagrams located in the Quick Start section for the
end kit ordered.
ATTENTION:
Installation of doors
and other accessories in the end wall may result in
leftover panel material and fasteners.
