ROLL-UP PANEL INSTALLATION (continued)

5.  Use the pipe diagrams on the End Framing diagram in 

Quick Start section to assemble the crank assembly. 

6.  Secure each splice using a Tek screw and cover the 

Tek screw with duct tape to protect the panel pocket.

7.  Insert the assembly into the panel pocket. Verify that 

the assembly runs between the guide post and the 

wooden support posts. Allow a few inches to extend 

beyond the panel opposite the crank handle to keep 

the conduit in place during operation.

8.  With the assembly in the proper position, flip up the 

skirt at the bottom of the panel and secure the conduit 

to the end panel using ten (10) CC6212 fabric clips and 

Tek screws. Space the clips evenly along the conduit.

9.  Trim the panel skirt if needed to achieve the desired fit 

at the bottom around the brackets.

10. Test the roll-up panel. 

 

NOTE:

 Verify that the 3/8" threaded rod that secures 

the customer-supplied end frame to the end rafter is 

sunk below the post surface (recommended) or has 

been cut off and taped to protect the roll-up panel. 

11.  Repeat the steps to install the remaining door panel.
12. Next, attach the end panel material to the end frame 

and end rafter. See next procedure and diagram below.

END PANEL INSTALLATION—Use DCC4931 Material

Consult the 

End Panel Location

 diagram near the back of 

this manual to view the areas that need to be covered with 

end panel material. Use these steps to cut and attach the 

end panel material to the end wall frame.
1.  Measure the area of the end wall that needs to be 

covered with end panels and cut a section from the 

bulk DCC4931 material. Allow extra material to achieve 

the best fit. 

 

NOTE:

 Due to differences in construction methods and 

customer-supplied support materials, the customer 

determines the best way to prepare the bulk material 

for installation.

2.  Set the prepared end panel in place and attach it 

to the end frame using FA4652 wood screws and 

neo-bonded washers, or Tek screws if the header kit 

was purchased. Attach the panel to the rafter using 

FA4482B Tek screws and neo-bonded washers 

(102921B).

3.  Repeat the steps to cut and attach the remaining end 

panels to cover the remaining end wall. 

4.  After installing all end panels, continue by installing the 

ribbon boards as described on the next page.

The shaded areas identify where to use the DCC4931 material. Material is cut to fit and attached to the wood 

frame using FA4652 wood screws and 102921B washers. (Use Tek screws if steel header kit was purchased.) 

Use FA4482B Tek screws and 102921B washers to attach the panel material to the rafters when needed. Roll out 

the material and use the building grid on the first page of the Quick Start section to estimate size. Measure actual 

space to cover so you do not run out of material.
