CAPPING
INSTALLATION
There are two types of panel capping options. You will have either have External Panel Capping (standard) or a Capping
Channel to give a flush finish look.
Both procedures are outlined below.
To fill the recess in a post where you are not inserting a
panel, snap in an end post infill.
NOTE:
-
These are designed to be inserted with a small
amount of force.
Where your wall is stepped, this insert can be cut to size
to suit the step and inserted in the exposed recess.
EXTERNAL PANEL CAPPING (STANDARD)
Firstly determine the correct length for your cap and
then cut to suit gap.
Apply ‘liquid nails fast grab’ or similar every 250mm.
NOTE:
-
The adhesive must be water based or it will
melt into the polystyrene.
Ease the wall capping over the panel starting at one
end and press down (see picture below). Once set, the
liquid nails will stop any unwanted movement.
CAPPING CHANNEL
Apply ‘liquid nails fast grab’ or similar every 250 mm
along both internal radiuses. This adhesive will contact
with the fibre cement sheets once the channel is
installed.
Start at one end approx 5mm in and carefully guide the
capping channel over the panel. Once fitted, tap the
capping channel to make sure it is seated correctly.
