A. FRAME ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
Since there can be an infinite number of variations of
stacking options and configurations, it is not possible to
have step by step specific instructions that will apply to all
units installed. Below are general instructions that focus
on the installation of a 3 panel unit as shown in
Diagram 1
.
This may not exactly apply to your particular unit. Please
refer to the Custom Product Drawings for your specific
project.
The key to having a properly installed and
operating PrivaSEE system is to install a
perfectly plumb, level and square frame at
the correct height from the level finish floor,
then after the panels are installed, install the
adjustable floor sockets such that they are
precisely aligned to the panel locking.
Step A1
Look for the labels on the different upper track segments,
side jambs and sill segments and set them on the floor as
per the layout on the product drawing.
Step A2
Attach as many of the upper track pieces together that
could be supported and installed easily as one piece. Use
the connectors and set screws provided.
See Sheet 5 of
the Installation Manual.
Make sure that the correct angles
between segments are maintained and that the transitions
between the track segments are perfectly aligned and
smooth.
Step A3
Add the top connector pieces for the side jambs on both
ends of the top track. Add some caulking to the top cover
plate and fix it to the top track from the side.
Step A4
The roller access head track section is a removable
section in the head track (RHT). This section will need to
be later removed when the panels are installed.
Step A5
The head track is pre-drilled in the factory with anchorage
holes at spacing’s of about 10” (250 mm) for 5/16” (8 mm)
diameter screws or bolts.
See Sheet 3 of the Installation
Manual.
The correct fastener spacing in the support structure
within the opening depends on substrate material, design
windload pressures of project, panel height and other
requirements of the project.
All anchoring details and
requirements should be determined and verified by the
project structural engineer
. Please pre-drill any additional
anchorage holes as needed.
The spacing of anchorage devices in the stacking bay
should be every 4” (100 mm) and in the stacking route
every about 10” (250 mm). Please pre-drill any additional
anchorage holes as needed.
