FRAME CHECK
Before you attach the drop-down curtain, inspect the frame
for sharp edges or fasteners that could damage the curtain
or kit components.
1. Verify that all frame members are properly secured.
2. Verify that all bolts and clamps are tight.
3. Recheck the frame assembly for sharp edges or
clamps and bolts that may interfere with the installation
of the curtain. File or tape sharp edges as needed.
4. Reposition clamps and bolts as needed and tape all
rafter pipe joints with duct tape to protect the curtain.

adequately anchored.
Do not attach the drop-down curtain to an unanchored
