Glazing

Now complete the glazing by fitting the roof
panes. Slide these all the way up the glazing
bars, making sure they tuck into the groove in
the ridge. Slot 2 of the glass stops (diagram
26) on and lower the pane down onto the
eaves bar. This will now support itself while
you fix the capping in place. The capping for
the roof corners is wider than normal to cover
the join of the cover strip to the roof corner
glazing bar. The capping should also be
fitted flush with the bottom edge of the glass
at the eaves.
Important : Before fixing the capping at the
bottom of the roof glazing bar you should
pilot hole the glazing bar.
External
Capping flush with
the end of the glass.
Note : Use countersunk screws where a vent is to be used so as the head of the screw doesn’t prevent
the vent from closing properly.
If you haven’t already done so you could now install the louvre glass in the sides.
