Fixed Aluminium Twin Track
  1. Lay out PVC strip on flat surface to allow material to return to pre-packed condition.  Check doorway dimensions agree with details shown on packing note.  
  2. If  track is in more than one piece, join sections with track joiners.  
  3. Fit hanging brackets to top groove of track, equally spaced.  
  4. Drill lintel and fix track, ensuring that it is horizontal. (If the track is fixed between walls it will be necessary to slide the strip clamping bolts into track before fixing track to lintel.  
  5. Starting with one coloured edge marker, attach each PVC strip to track by sliding clamp bolts into track and then securing strip and clamp with nuts. Ensure that each strip is hung with convex surface marked ‘F’ facing outwards, thus ensuring that the finished curtain appears.  
  6. Adjust strip positions to achieve uniform overlap across width of curtain.  
  7. When all strips are hung, there should be at least 10mm clearance between bottom of PVC and floor level.  Trim if necessary using sharp knife and a board.   


    Before leaving site - Check:-

    • Floor clearance
    • All strips hung right way round
    • Strips clear of obstructions

Strips arrive with plates already attached, they simply drop over the hooks to achieve the required overlap. Available in 304 stainless steel and galvanised finish.
