DT-E 1.3: SUN PROTECTION SCREEN – VENETIAN BLINDS C80P and C80L
Issue 3 / April 2017 / EN
page 34 / 62
Guidelines for installation of mounting profile:
Length of mounting profile equals total height of venetian blind minus 50 mm.
Installation of the profile is shown in Fig. 2.
Profile must be secured firmly to the base (cannot be loose) and be in linear and perpendicular position in relation
to the blind. In case of the base not being stable enough, it is necessary to provide supporting substructure that
will provide stability and correct profile alignment.
Profiles must be mounted parallel to each other in all planes.
Profile must be positioned in the way that its upper edge is on the same level with plane of the plaster/ insulation
or other finishing material, and in the same level with upper plane of the cover panel.
Mechanical anchoring of the profile is acceptable in a way that the anchor doesn’t protrude more than 4 ÷ 5 mm
over the inner wall of the profile, Fig. 3.
During installation of the profile, you must protect it against damage or dirt from the finishing construction works.
