Installation
See all our installation videosDescription
The panels are installed in a sequential order from bottom up. The panels are held in place using cleats which can be stainless steel, zinc or galvanised steel.
For larger panels galvanised steel cleats are recommended. The cleats should be fixed at a maximum of 330mm centres. For small diamond shaped panels the hems should be slightly notched thus allowing the cleat to sit securely. When installing large rectangular panels the short side should be fixed with a long fixing strip. It is recommended that screws be used to secure the cleats.
The use of nails offers significantly less resistance, but in the event of using nails, contractors are advised to use ring shank nails. The panels should be installed with the protective film in place.
