NOTE: If, for some reason, conditions on the site prohibit the
installation of the walls and ceilings in the recommended order,
install the wall and ceiling panels in a logical sequence that will
permit accessibility for installation of the last panel. Remember to
schedule ceiling panel installation at the proper intervals to serve as
supporting ties between installed wall panels.
Locate the plug buttons which were packed in the hardware bag
and, after checking to make sure that the hex wrench comes to a
full stop on each section latch, insert a plug button into every latch
access hole.
SLAM BRACES
The door/door section frame on most floorless walk-ins will be fitted
with slam braces, one on each of the interior, vertical frame members.
These braces will require attachment to the building floor.
Their purpose is to positively locate the lower extremities of the
door frames and prevent any movement that might occur at the
point where the door frame rests on the floor sealer (screed).
When 1" vinyl floor sealers are furnished, they will be notched to
accommodate the slam brace location.
The slotted holes in the vertical leg of the slam brace permit adjustment in either direction to allow the slam brace
to contact the building floor properly. Fasteners suitable for securing the slam braces to a concrete building floor
are packed in a bag and attached to one of the slam braces. For other types of building floors, the appropriate
fastener must be provided by others.
IMPORTANT! Make sure that the door/door section is PERFECTLY PLUMB before attaching the braces to the
building floor. The holes in the slam brace for attachment to the building floor are intentionally round so that no
shifting can occur after they are secured. Make sure the slam braces have been secured to the building floor.
