Installation Guide

Installation Faux wood Beams can be installed using standard woodworking tools.
Polyurethane foam will cut clean with the use of a table saw, miter saw, band saw
or hand saw. We recommend the use of a miter box to make sure your cuts are
straight. Because Polyurethane foam will expand and contract slightly with
temperature variations, it is important to acclimate the products to the location
of installation for approximately 10-12 hours before installing. All products should
be installed with an adhesive and screws. We do not recommend the use of nails
unless you use a small nail gun. Use of a hammer is not recommended under any
circumstances. Use a high quality Premium adhesive for Polyurethane such as PL
premium or Liquid Nails. It also allows the Polyurethane to expand and contract
as necessary over time. When installing exterior products, we suggest using non-
eroding deck screws, pointing screws in an upward direction so as to prevent
water penetration. If you are in high humidity location, you can opt to pre-drill
and fill holes with adhesive prior to inserting the screw. Patch all screw holes,
dings and dents with a non-shrinking wood putty or polyurethane filler. You may
want to tint the putty prior to application. The Polyurethane Beam products will
not provide any structural support and are decorative only. As with all plastics,
Polyurethane foam is flammable. As a general rule there are no restrictions
regarding the use of Polyurethane for residential applications. It is the consumer's
responsibility to abide by any local and/or state regulations. Tips Screw wood
blocks to the ceiling every 2-3 feet. Apply a Polyurethane construction adhesive to
the beam and hold the beam up to the ceiling over the wood blocks. Screw beam
to the blocks on both sides of the beam.
