IMPORTANT GENERAL PRINCIPLESThe Tie Bar Replacement Kit (TBRK) is the UK’s only effective

solution to traditional tie bars.

Tie bars have been an essential part of a conservatory installation since Victorian times andconservatory designers and installers are well versed in their fitment and fine-tuning. The TBRKfeatures new state-of-the-art technology. These notes are intended to make installation troublefree – please follow carefully to ensure a satisfactory installation.

Ensure alignment of side framesAll frames MUST be installedplumb – any frames that arenot will result in the ridge enddropping and the TBRK notworking effectively.

Correctly set the ridgeEnsure the ridge body sits onto the compression plate inbetween the 2 marked insertionlines – min. and max. Ifnecessary use aluminiumshims if the ridge compressionplate requires packing behind.Ensure the ridge is level, propit until all bars are installed. Ifnecessary over compensateand lift the finial end of theridge 10mm above level.

Check the condition,strength and type ofhost/contact wallThe TBRK MUST be installedagainst a sound wall e.g. ofmasonry construction and notshiplap boarding. Sleeveanchors are provided whichcover most site installations.For hollow bricks or blocksresin bonded anchor boltsMUST be used (not supplied).

Fit all cleats and strapsEnsure all cleats and straps arefitted as instructed, makingsure there are no open joints.

Use the fixings providedUse correct fixings, asinstructed. All relevant fixingsMUST be used

Fit 3 eaves to wall fixingsThe eaves MUST be fastenedto the host wall using 3 sleeveanchors – one through thealuminium eaves end mouldingand two through the reinforcedend of the starter bars.

Use resin anchors for hollow masonry in place of A1 andA2 sleeve anchors

STEP 05

On the ground, away from the conservatory, offerup the first starter bar. Fasten using the set screwsprovided (E - select 20mm or 25mm, dependingupon site conditions*) - do not over tighten.

STEP 04

Take the ridge hanger/compression plate.

7

STEP 06

Take the second starter bar and similarly offer thisonto the ridge hanger/compression plate assembly.

STEP 07

Lift the whole “A” frame assembly and get ready toinstall it in its final position.

STEP 01

Each eaves corner (90°, 135° and 150°) issupplied pre-fitted with two standard cleats(Georgian 90° illustrated).

6

STEP 02

Two pilot holes already exist in the next piece ofeaves beam – drill two more at 4.5mm diameterthrough the eaves beam and the cleat and thensecurely fit the four M5 x 12mm taptite screws (H).

STEP 03

Where the eaves beam sits against the hostmasonry wall, it has a structural moulding attachedto the eaves beam. This has three fixing positionscast into it to allow attachment into masonry –choose the hole that directly lines up with solidmasonry and drill a 10mm hole into the host wall.Attach the structural moulding using the M8x80mmanchor supplied (A1). Silicone seal the gap wherethe moulding attaches to the eaves beam.

STEP 08

Attach the starter bar using the nut, bolt and springwasher (B) (included in the kit) to the eavesstructural moulding. Finger tighten the nut totemporarily allow the assembly to hang.

*see step 12

If the masonry ishollow, use resinanchor bolts (not supplied)

Steps 1-20 are for

single ended

conservatories

(no box gutter)

STEP 15

Lay the butterfly cleat over the two captivatedroofing bolts. Lift on the Georgian hip bar at theeaves and lay it onto the slotted ridge end.

Note: A butterfly cleat is not required on 3 or 5facet fronts unless the eaves beam joins a boxgutter at the facet joint.

9

STEP 16

When using the Tie Bar Replacement Kit, Georgian barsneed to be attached with four roofing (30mm) bolts -these are generally fitted head down to prevent the boltsfouling the glazing material (washers are supplied andMUST be fitted). The tie bar itself is prepped with 4 holes.Dependent on pitch and bar orientation, one or two holes inthe bar will not line through with the slots in the radius end,so you will need to drill the solid part of the radius end. IT IS VITAL THAT YOU DO THIS AS ALL FOUR BOLTSMUST BE LOCATED TO GIVE THE ROOF THE DESIREDSTRUCTURAL STRENGTH.

STEP 09

Using an “angle fix” check the starter bars are atthe correct pitch. Chalk/pencil a line on to the wallto mark the pitch line.

8

STEP 10

STEP 11

Loosen the “crocodile jaw” bolts (C) on theunderside of the main ridge body – ensure it issupported at the front whilst it is gently guidedonto the top half of the ‘crocodile jaw’.

Note: The starter bar is NOT attached (bolted) tothe ridge body.

STEP 12

The ridge body should ideally sit 20mm back from thehouse wall (or 12mm from the front plate), this allowsthe compression plate to evenly distribute ridge loadsinto the host wall (max tolerance50mm). If the host wall is out of plumb,pack out behind the starter bars anduse the longer bolts provided. Thisensures the starter bars are at 90° toridge body (and not tapering).

STEP 13

Next, to support the ridge at the front, attach thetwo bars nearest to the front end. Also, take thecentre bar, if one is supplied on this design, andattach it to the slotted ridge end.

STEP 14

Take the centre bar which is attached at the ridgeend only and is suspended over the eaves beam.Take a firm hold and pull it down, shaping theslotted aluminium end as you do so – fasten at theeaves in the normal way.

Attach the ridge hanger/compression plate to thehost wall. Drill the plate with 2 x 9mm holes, thenthe wall with an 8mm masonry bit and fasten intothe masonry using the two M6 x 65mm sleeveanchors (or resin anchors) provided (A2). Ifnecessary, use aluminium shims to pack out behindthe plate. Check the plate is vertical and securelyfastened. AT THIS STAGE IT IS ADVISABLE TO CHASE OUTFOR CONSERVAFLASH /LEAD FLASHING.

Check the ridge is level. If in doubt, over compensate and lift the ridge +10mm above level

135° eaves and box gutter assembly

Place the 135° butterfy strap (SES004) over theroofing bolts. Offer the glazing bar on to the bolts,align and secure. Once in position fix the strapdown with the two fixings supplied (UZBGF001-D).

11

180° inline eaves and box gutter assembly

Place the inline cleat (SES002) over the butt joint.Fix down either side of the joint with the two fixingssupplied (UZBGF001-D).

Note: Only two of the four holes need to be used.

90° eaves and raised back box gutter assembly

Place the inline strap (SES005, 165mm / SES006,265mm) over the single roofing bolt on the slopedgutter. Temporarily fix the bracket to the host wallusing three M8 sleeve anchor bolts (SAB001)supplied. Fit the starter bar. Secure the strap to theeaves with the two fixings supplied (UZBGF001-D).Finally, fix anchor bolts.

180° inline eaves to box gutter joint

Place the inline cleat (SES003) over the butt joint.Offer the glazing bar on to the bolts, align andsecure. Once in position fix the cleat down with thetwo fixings supplied (UZBGF001-D).

Note: Only two of the four holes are used.

10

STEP 19

Drill an 11mm hole through the aluminium starterand its factory inserted reinforcement. Then use a10mm masonry drill bit for the host masonry.

STEP 20

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT AN ANCHOR BOLT GOESINBOARD AND OUTBOARD OF THE EAVES BEAM.

IMPORTANT NOTE: WHEN USING GLASS CLIPS ON THE STARTER BAR YOU WILL NEED TO‘REAM OUT’ THE BOLT HOLE TO 8MM. ALTERNATIVELY USE GLASS PACKERS ON THE SIDE OF THESEALED UNIT WHERE IT ABUTS THE STARTER BAR.

STEP 17

Drill a 5.5mm hole and then fix the ‘butterfly’ cleatinto the head of the eaves beam at the 90 degreecorners using the fixing (D) provided.

STEP 18

Ensure that the fixing on the eaves moulding andthe nuts on the ‘crocodile hanger’ are tightened up.Also ensure the bolts (E), at the top of the starterbar, are tightened up.
