The next step is to install the corner brackets into the posts. The corner brackets have 
pre drilled holes to allow for the bolts to be screwed into the post & the corner bracket. 
Note that the bolts should be tightened with care to avoid damage to the inside thread  
of the bracket. The same process applies to the beams. The beams are then positioned 
into the corner brackets. Tighten the bolts with care.

The corner brackets have plastic colour matching covers that are then positioned and 
fixed into the top and side of the angle bracket. The screws provided only need to be 
tightened slightly to avoid the corner covers from separating. The end of the beam has a 
plastic cover that is pushed into the beam. Check that all the bolts have been securely 
tightened and proceed to the next stage.

Refer to the manufactures installation for the correct description of the bolts
and fixing screws that are required. The cantaport unit is pre cut and pre drilled 
and does not require any modification unless the posts have been 
positioned outside the recommended set out positions. When undertaking 
the tightening of any screw or bolt, care must be taken at all times. Aluminium 
is a soft metal and does not require a lot of force to tighten the fixings.

The next stage is to install the surround of the roof perimeter. The small stainless steel brackets are
fixed to the end of the both sides to the beams. The fascia is then placed against the brackets and
fixed into place. The same applies to the gutter. The pre drilled holes to the gutter and fascia 
should match up to the holes on the stainless steel brackets. No new holes are required unless the 
posts have been installed outside the standard set out .

The plastic corner fittings are placed into the cavity of the long fascia & gutter. The short fascia on 
each end slides into the plastic corners. It is recommended that the inside joins of the gutter are 
filled with silicon to eliminate any leaks. The small side fascias look identical but are manufactured 
specifically for each side. The same applies to the plastic corners. They all fit into place without any 
modification. 

Try to avoid direct pressure onto the frame during installation. The aluminium
parts when fully installed can withhold 135km winds and 20cm of snow over 
the entire roof.
All care must be taken during installation to  minimise any damage to the 
aluminium parts. Always refer to the installation manual for specific parts & 
fixing details.
