9.  At the unrolled screen surface, peel back the protective paper 

approximately 3/4” on all sides. This will allow the frame to be 
attached easily to the screen surface. 

 

NOTE: 

 Do not remove the protective paper completely.  This 

will be done at the end of the screen installation in order to 
protect the surface during the hanging process.

10.  Center the first rubber gasket on the screen surface edge and 

press it into place starting at one end. Repeat this step for the 
three remaining sides of the screen. 

Installation (continued)

11.  Place the frame sections around the screen surface. Attach to 

frame over the rubber gasket with set screws facing upwards. 
Use a rubber mallet to gently tap the screen frame into place 
if needed (See Figure 5)

12.  Starting from the center on each side, tighten all set screws 

on all four sides of the frame using the 1/8” hex key. 
Approximately two threads should be visible on each set 
screw when properly tightened.

13.  Place the hoisting bracket in the center of the top and bottom 

sections of the screen frame. Attach to frame using the 
provided cap screws and a 3/16” hex key.
