Diet Panel Gap Filler Installation
The Diet gap fi ller is installed into the groove between panel’s aluminum vertical frame
member and extruded PVC end trim. It is the same gap through which panel hinge
connectors protrude. The gap fi ller fi lls the gap between Diet panels, from the bottom
edge of the top hinge connector to the top edge of the bottom connector. If there are
more then two hinges connecting the two adjacent panels then trim the length of the
fi ller so that it fi lls the gaps between top and the middle hinge and, again, between the
middle hinge and the bottom hinge.
STEP 1: Hold the fi ller so that one arm of the ‘arrow’ is engaged behind the front edge
of panel’s aluminum vertical frame member.
STEP 2: Snap the extruded PVC end trim onto the panel’s vertical frame member while
ensuring that the second arm of the ‘arrow’ remains engaged behind the extruded
PVC trim.
STEP 3: Connect panels with connector pins.
STEP 4: Arrange the opposite end of the fi ller so that one ‘arrow’ is engaged along the
full height between the aluminum vertical frame member and extruded PVC end trim.
STEP 5: Proceed from top of the fi ller and tack the other ‘arrow’ behind the aluminum
frame member and the extruded PVC end trim.
