Installation Instructions
The installation of the PrivaSEE System requires a
working knowledge and experience in the use of tools,
equipment and methods necessary for the installation
of aluminum doors, storefronts and/or partitions. This
practice assumes a familiarity with preparing a proper
and structurally sound opening, proper structural support
for stacking bays, proper anchorage, waterproofing,
caulking and sealing and assumes an understanding of
the fundamentals of building construction that affect the
installation of large horizontal single track sliding systems.
A crew of at least 2 persons is needed. These systems can
be heavy. Use safe lifting techniques to avoid injury and
product damage.
Highly recommended is using a NanaWall certified
independent installer, if available, or, at least, an installer
who has some experience in installing NanaWall
systems.
IMPORTANT:
READ COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION. INSTALL AS
RECOMMENDED; OTHERWISE, THE UNIT MAY
NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY AND ANY WARRANTY,
WRITTEN OR IMPLIED, WILL BE VOID.
CAUTION:
As regulations governing the use of glazed windows,
doors, storefronts and/or partitions vary widely, it is the
responsibility of the building owner, architect, contractor
or installer to ensure that products selected conform to
all applicable codes and regulations, including federal,
state and local. Nana Wall Systems, Inc. can assume no
obligation or responsibility whatsoever for failure of the
building owner, architect, contractor or installer to comply
with all applicable laws and ordinances and safety and
building codes.
Please pay special attention to the thickness of glass.
The NanaWall glass thickness for the panels is based
on the Glass Association of North America (GANA)
recommended minimum glass thickness for fully
tempered Interior butt glazed fixed glass panels.
The PrivaSEE system is shipped with all necessary
components. However, not included are screws, bolts,
shims, etc. to anchor the unit to the opening. The frame
is shipped knocked down and needs to be assembled.
Panels are pre-assembled with glass, ready to be attached
to the installed frame. In most cases, all rollers, pivots,
brushes and lockings are pre-attached to the panels.
DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIED PARTS
First look for an envelope in the shipment, which contains
drawings of the elevation, the layout of the unit and an
Installation Manual. This information together with the
Custom Product Drawings provided by NanaWall at the
time of order will be needed for a successful installation.
As there is
no “standard” configuration
for PrivaSEE
units, see
Diagram 1
which shows the elevation and layout
of a 3 panel unit to illustrate the installation process.
Some items may not be applicable for your unit. Inspect
the custom product drawing, indicating size, configuration
and labeling of the unit ordered.
Check all parts carefully before assembly. Depending on
the unit ordered, some of these parts may already be pre-
installed on the panels.
Check that the sizes of the frame
components and panels match with what was ordered.
The elevation drawing shows the sequence and number
of panels, which depends on the model ordered.
The drawing is always viewed from the outside, but
the locking shown is what is on the inside.
The panels
are pre-assembled with two upper carriers for each
sliding panel and with specified locking.
The sequence
of labeling of panels starts from the left looking from
outside with the left most panel labeled Panel #1.
