2.1a) Face of Wall Mount:

Hold the unit against the opening and determine the future fit. It is important to

ensure that there is an even plane on which to mount the Habitat Screen. Face of Wall mounted Habitat Screens

come with 7/8” build up for the guide rails and panel box top to allow for bottom profile clearance. Various

additional extruded build-up materials can be used to achieve such an even surface (below). This additional
build-up may be purchased from Talius.
