Step 8 - Installing Windows (see pre-installed door window as an example): 

INSTALL THE EXTERIOR SHIELD TRACKS: 

On each of the 8” sides, measure over 1-7/8” at the top and bottom corners. Be sure to mark all four spots. 

Using the marks as a guide, position the fi rst exterior shield track along one side of the window opening. Raise the channel about 1 /8” above the top of the 
window. Use one (3/4”) green screw to hold the exterior track in place. Repeat step on the opposite side. 
Make sure each track is aligned at the top and bottom of the window opening. Use a total of three (3/4”) green screws to fasten each track in place. 

INSTALLING THE EXTERIOR SHIELD:

 Drop the exterior shield into place behind the exterior shield tracks. The cord hole should be on the bottom of the 

shield. 

INSTALLING THE EXTERIOR DRIP CAP:

 Begin by making guide marks 1-9/16” above the window. Secure the drip cap on the right side with one (3/4”) 

green screw. Then, make sure the drip cap is level and rests on the marks. If so, secure with another (3/4”) green screw. Use fi ve evenly spaced (3/4”) green 
screws to fi nish securing the drip cap. Use a total of fi ve evenly spaced (3/4”) green screws on the gun window to fi nish securing the drip cap.  Use 3 on the 
bow window cap.

INSTALLING THE INTERIOR DRAW CORD CINCH LOCK:

 Pull the shield up and down a few times to center the cord in the window. Once you have found 

the center. let the shield down. Measure 15-1 /2” down from the center and mark the position. Peel the tape protection off the back of the orange speed 
cinch and secure the top of speed cinch to your mark. Make sure you set correctly with the notch at the bottom (as shown in picture) as the tape is very 
aggressive and diffi cult to remove once adhered to wall. Secure the cinch with two (1”) washer head screws. Run the cord through the speed cinch tube. Then 
thread the cord through the rubber shield stop. Tie a knot at the end of the cord directly beneath the rubber stop. You may need to adjust the knot to make 
sure the shield is at or just below the window. Note: If the shield does not slide down smoothly with cord, from the outside of blind, lightly bend out the 
exterior shield tracks until shield slides smoothly. 

Step 9 - 

INSTALLING THE INTERIOR LUAN, STRIP, TRACK AND GLASS: 

Install the luan wood strip even with the side of window opening and even with the top j-channel (see pic).  Use staple gun and a minimum 3/8” staple to 
hold in place.  Slide the plastic glass tracks onto each side of glass panel fi rmly. Hold the glass and tracks over the window opening, making sure it is even on 
both sides and on top of wooden luan board strip. Using (1”) washer head screws, secure one track on the right side of the window (top and bottom). On the 
left side of the window, place one washer head screw in the top hole of the opposite track. Lower the glass to make sure it is level and will slide smoothly. 
Then fasten the remaining three (1”) washer head screws. Secure the half piece of glass track in the middle of the window of the side walls, back wall and 
door wall making sure it is even with the top of window opening.  Secure with two 1” washer head screws.  This will hold window in place when in upright 
position.
