INSTALLATION OF TIE-IN STRAPS

Roll-Thru Cabinets

If two cabinets are installed side-by-side, a Tie-In Kit with straps

and notched upper end panels is available to attach to the cabi-

nets for rigidity. Before installing Tie-In Strips, make sure the

cabinets are close together and each unit is properly leveled (see

Installing Roll-In and Roll-Thru Models).

Remove the front and rear grill from each cabinet, by lifting off

mounting screws on the back side at each end (screws may

need to be loosened, before grill will lift up). Remove upper end

panel on the side of each cabinet located next to an adjacent

cabinet, by loosening the mounting screws along the bottom.

Make sure the cabinets are pushed tightly together. Gap between

the cabinets must be no more ¼” wide. Position Tie-In Strap

as shown in Figure 15 across the top of the gap between the

cabinets. Re-check that the cabinets are aligned properly and

secure the Tie-In Strap to the top of each cabinet with self-

drilling screws. Position one of the notched upper end panels

as shown on the first cabinet, with the notch at the bottom, and

attach to the cabinet with sheetmetal screws at front and back

corners. Position the other notched upper end panel as shown

on the second cabinet, with the notch at bottom, and attach to

the cabinet with sheetmetal screws at front and back corners.

Reinstall the front and rear grills on each cabinet by inserting

mounting screws on the back side at each end into the keyhole

slots on the end panels. Check that the grills and doors are

straight and properly aligned. Adjust if necessary. Apply a bead

of silicone in the vertical seems between the cabinets at front

and back side.

NOTE: This is necessary to comply with sanitation

requirements and also makes it apparent that the cabinets

have been attached together.
