The aluminium bolster is already 

attached to the glazing bar, and 

is a little shorter than its host.

1

Next take each bolster end 

cap, simply plug into the PVCu 

bolster  cladding  –  one  at  the 

ridge one at the eaves.

This  is  how  the  finished 

arrangement should look.

Take the two part cladding, 

attach each piece carefully to 

the  aluminium  bolster  profile 

and ‘zip’ together.

MUNTIN BAR INSTALLATION

SECTION 15

IF YOUR SEALED UNITS HAVE BEEN SUPPLIED WITH TAPED EDGES, 

ALWAYS REMOVE THE TAPE PRIOR TO INSTALLATION.Take the muntin 

bar profile (top and bottom section) that matches its corresponding 

sealed unit. Take the lower section and allow it to span between the 

two adjacent glazing bars. Lower into position the up slope sealed unit. 

NOTE: MUNTIN SHOULD BE SAME WIDTH AS UNIT.

1

Now take the upper section and lay it face down onto a 

smooth clean surface. Using the relevant sealant (MS 

Polymer sealant such as Rotabond 2000 must be used on 

self cleaning glass), apply a generous bead to each side, 

immediately behind the gasket.

2

Now lift the sealed unit that goes on the lower slope into position, turn 

the upper profile over, place it into position and tap down the profile 

using a non marking plastic mallet. Wipe clean any sealant from the 

unit face. NOTE: WE RECOMMEND A SECOND PERSON TO SUPPORT 

THE MUNTIN FROM THE UNDERSIDE WHEN TAPPING DOWN.

3

Now, tap the PVCu top cap into position, which will ‘trap’ 

the muntin profiles.
