Keys and padlocks
Check for door keys and make sure they work properly. Keys are normally placed
inside the building by the toilet paper dispenser.
Padlocks should be placed on the cleanout cover to seal it. Padlocks may also be put
on toilet paper dispensers. Customers must provide their own padlocks.
Toilet paper
Check to make sure there is sufficient toilet paper in holders and that they are not
jammed. The toilet paper holders should arrive full and ready to use. Check for any
jamming that may have occurred during shipping.
Clean-out hatch
The clean-out hatch is designed so the customer can close the lid securely with a
lock. When locking the lid, it will be necessary for you to stand on the lid
(compressing the seal) to line up the holes provided for a lock.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I patch chips in the exterior of the building?
Chips may be filled using a latex grout mix. We recommend Burke-Krete with Latex mix.
Once mixed to compatible consistency, apply with a margin trowel then use the edge of
the trowel to cut in groves of barnwood or straightedge. Finish by re-staining with
appropriate color and sealing with graffiti sealer. The CXT “Touch-up Kit” is ideal for this
purpose and includes paint and sealer.
How do I adjust the spring tension on the doors?
First determine which type of hinges came with your building. Stanley hinges have smooth
barrels. World Class hinges have pins in the barrel.
To adjust the spring tension on
Stanley
hinges, remove the Phillips screw. Then, using an
Allen wrench tighten the spring by turning towards the arrow on the hinge. To loosen the
hinge, place the wrench in the slot and gently tap with a hammer until tension is released.
DO NOT turn the Allen wrench in the opposite direction of the arrow. When you tap down
on the Allen wrench it will release itself.
To adjust spring tension on
World Class
hinges, with the door closed, place a 5/32 hex
wrench in the hole on the hinge, turn hex wrench clockwise slightly to loosen roll pin.
Remove roll pin using a pair of needle nose pliers or a small punch. Turn hex wrench 90º
more and line up hole on hinge barrel with hole in tension adjustment pin. Insert the roll
pin all the way into the hole to lock tension adjustment pin in place.
DO NOT TURN
