INSTALL END FRAMING FOR OUTRIGGER FRAMES
With the frame properly anchored, install the end wall frame
for the outriggers. All end walls are framed the same.
Required parts:
• 2" x 2" Square Tubing (105328)
• 105087 Connection Plates
• 105088 1-Way Connectors
The steps below describe how to assemble the end wall
frame for all outrigger end walls.
1. Move to one end of an outrigger frame and measure
the distance between the base rail of the main frame
and the base rail of the outrigger.
2. Take one 2" x 2" square tube (#105328) and
cut the
tube 1/4" shorter
than the length determined in Step 1.
NOTE:
The 1/4" accounts for the 1-Way connectors
that are inserted into the tube and used to secure the
base rail to the frame of the building.
3. After cutting the tube to the required length, insert a
1-Way connector into each end (as shown) and secure
the base rail to the frame.
4. On the back (or inside) surface of the base rail, install
a Tek screw through the base rail and into the 1-Way
connector at each end to secure the connector to the
tube.
5. Repeat the steps to cut and install the base rail for the
remaining three ends of the outrigger frames.
6. Once all base rails are installed, complete the next
procedure to frame an opening for the sliding doors.
FRAME THE OPENING FOR THE SLIDING DOORS
The rough door dimensions shown in the diagram to the
left are measured inside-to-inside. Complete the following
steps to complete the end wall framing.
1. Take a 2" x 2" tube (#105328) and cut it to 72" for the
vertical door frame tube.
NOTE:
The tube is 1/4" shorter to account for the
1-Way connectors that are inserted and secured to
each end of the tube.
2. Insert a 1-Way connector into each end and secure
each connector to the tube using a Tek screw. Set the
assembled tube aside.
3. Measure 46 1/2" along the end wall base rail and mark
the location on the front edge of the base rail. This
mark identifies the inside edge of the vertical door
frame tube. See the diagram to the left.
4. Take the vertical tube, align the inside edge of the tube
with the mark on the base rail (Step 3), and secure
the vertical tube to the base rail using Tek screws. The
inner flange of the 1-Way connector will extend to the
inside of the door frame. The measurement from the
main frame rafter leg to the vertical door frame tube of
the end wall will be 46 1/2".
5. Measure the header length needed and prepare
another 2" x 2" tube. Attach one end of the header tube
to the end rafter leg of the main frame using a 1-Way
connector as previously described.

6. Secure the outer end of the header to the outrigger end
rafter using two (2) plates (#105087) as shown above.
7. Repeat the steps to install the end wall frame for the
remaining end walls and continue by installing the stay
rollers for each sliding door.

105087 plate on both
sides to secure the
header.
