Aluminium Channel Fitting Instructions –English
Place the Base Shoes on the bottom of the glass spaced at approx
250mm centres as shown in the diagram.
Apply a little bit of washing up liquid on the inside of the channel
and on the ribs at the bottom of the base shoes.
Lift the glass into position and with a little pressure from above the
glass should drop into the channel.
Use extra base shoes on the edges of the glass panels to stop any
contact with walls or other glass.
Once in the channel you should be able to move the glass up and
down until in the correct position.
Insert the wedges at either side of the base shoes with the ribs towards
the base shoe.
Using a 4” bolster chisel knock the wedges down until they are approx
6mm (1/4”) lower than the base shoe (ensuring adequate protection
between the glass and bolster chisel).
Insert the finishing strip into the remaining gap at either side of the
glass with the lip facing the outside of the channel, do not stretch the
gasket or it will shrink back to its original size after installation (using
the sealent smother tool provided).
Please ensure there is no moisture/lubricant present on either the
glass, channel or finishing strip or it will not stay in position.
