Glazing Bars, Magnetic Keeps & Finishing Up
15.1 Glazing bars are supplied as 10m bar lengths (2x5m) with 13m tape - the tape will need to be bonded to the lengths of the bar
15.2 Once the glass is fully installed, ensure the glass is clean (we recommend using a saline solution or glass primer)
15.3 Measure the gap between glass divides and cut the glazing bars to suit
15.4 Clean the underside of the glazing bar using a saline solution or primer
15.5 Place tape on the underside of the glazing bar, ensuring it remains central along the bar (we recommend that a roller is used for this to ensure strongest bond)
15.6 Before removing the red backing, offer the bars up to the glass and check for size, trim as required
15.7 Remove red backing of the tape and press bar firmly onto the glass
16.1 Open the lead door almost 180° until the handle is approximately 10mm from the adjoining door and hold in position
16.2 Position the complete magnetic keep up between the top of both doors and move along until it is wedged between them, as shown (FIG 16A) - ensure that the lead handles are fitted and there is a 5mm gap between the handle and sash style
16.3 Using a pencil, mark the magnet holder position on the lead door, and then close the door
16.4 Return the magnet holder to your mark and move up or down to position in the centre of the door profile - the centre of the hole should be 26mm down from the top of the door
NOTE: Magnetic keeps are only provided on configurations that have a folding back lead door, and as such are not available on Single Doors, French Doors, or Even Door sets. If the door is above 2,700mm, repeat steps 16.2 - 16.4 for the bottom magnetic keep.
16.5 Using a 3.5mm drill bit, mark the door through the hole in the magnet holder (FIG 15B)
16.6 Remove the holder and using the 3.5mm drill bit, drill a hole on the previously made mark through two skins of aluminium
16.7 Install the magnet and cover plate
16.8 Place the two halves of the magnetic keep together
16.9 Open the lead door against the adjoining door to locate the second half and mark with a pencil
16.10 Fix in position as previously described
16.11 Install cover plate
17.1 Check you have all the parts
Restrictor block x 5
Screws x 4 5.0 x 60mm
Screws x 3 5.0 x 45mm
Slider casing x 1
Restrictor bar x 1
Sash pivot x 1
17.2 Prop the door open to its maxium desired opening angle (FIG 17A)
17.3 Ensure the slider stop is engaged by placing (FIG 17B) against a hard surface and pushing down on the restrictor arm - this will require some force and should result in a click (the restrictor arm should no longer be able to slide up and down the slider housing once this step has been completed)
17.4 Fit the sash pivot to the top of the door 60mm from the end of the black polyamide strip on the hinge side using two of the screws provided - the sash pivot should be fitted onto the black polyamide strip tight against the aluminium on the inner side of the sash (FIG 17C)
17.5 Insert the slider casing into the top track making sure it is still connected to the sash pivot, it should only fit in one position (FIG 17D) Then, using a non-permanent method, mark the positions of the four screw holes in the slider casing, then move the slider casing out of the way.
17.6 Insert four of the restrictor blocks positioned at the points you have marked on the top track. Do this by using an 8mm Allen key to insert the block into the track and twisting 90° clockwise to lock it in to place. The 5th restrictor block is then inserted half way between the other blocks (FIG 17E)
17.7 Using one of the 5.0 x 45mm screws, secure the middle restrictor block as shown (FIG 17F)
17.8 Place the slider casing back into the top track at your marked position, and secure the last four restrictor blocks through the slider casing using the 5.0 x 60mm screws as shown (FIG 17G). It may help to disconnect the sash pivot at this point for ease ofinstallation. Once the screws have been fitted reconnect the sash pivot. Check the door for proper operation
18.1 Insert fixing plugs provided into the 13mm holes drilled into the jambs
18.2 We recommend you use expanding foam to fill the gaps between the outer frame and building on all four sides
NOTE: The weather seal around the outer frame to the building is the responsibility of the installer - sealant and trim kits are available to purchase from Origin
