Installation of Lyssand Windows and Doors

 

Windows and doors must be stored undercover avoiding any water penetration.
     
Before installation begins, all windows and doors must have at least one base coat of stain or paint. (This applies to all edges of sash and frame)  
     

Windows

   
     
  Place window in opening on packers at maximum 1200mm centres. A packer must be placed at each end and under any mullions. Place packer behind each fixing point (1No. 100mm from top and 1No. 100mm from bottom and at centres no more than 1000mm) on the vertical frames. Side frames must be straight.
     
  All windows must be level
     

 

On deadlights the packers must be placed 100mm from the outside of the frame.

Windows wider than 1800mm and windows with multiple sashes must have a fixing to the frame head of each sash. Never fix through the vent slot.

     

  Before the window is firmly fixed ensure the sash is centred within the frame.
     
After final fitting and also prior to hand over to client open and fully reverse the window. Ensure the window reverses smoothly and locks in the cleaning position.  
     
  If foam is used to seal around windows, the frame must be braced. Also the correct quantity used and the correct temperature in accordance with manufacturers instructions.
     
     

Doors

   
     
  Ensure the surface the door is to be placed upon is level and flat.
     

 

 

Place packer behind fixing points above top hinge, below bottom hinge and in the centre of the doorframe. If an extra fixing is required, this should be placed above the middle hinge. Place packer behind fixing points, 100mm from top, 100mm from bottom and above or below the lock keep.

N.B. Doorjambs must be straight and plumb.

     
Before the door is firmly fixed ensure that the margins are even down hinge and locking side.  
     
To the head of the doors the margin must be even or slightly smaller at locking side.  
     
After final fixing and prior to hand over to the client ensure that doors open and close freely, locks, handles, espagnollette, stays and shootbolts are in good working order.  
     
For correct fitting of french door handle please refer to separate fitting instructions.
     
  If foam is used to seal around doors, the frame must be braced. Also the correct quantity used and the correct temperature in accordance with manufacturers instructions.
