NOTE: Please reference EFCO's "Understanding Condensation" brochure which can be obtained through your EFCO representative.
Condensation wil l form on any surface wh en unfavorable con di ti on s (i nt er ior temperature an d re lative humidity and exterior
temperature) are present. When the formation of excessive condensation is a concern, it is highly recommended that a design
professional is utilized to perform an analysis of the shop drawings to recommend the best installation methods. Please contact
EFCO representat i ve for information on EFCO's Thermal Analysis Servi ces.
Many current installation practices lead to an increase in the possibility of the formation of condensation. Though not all
inclusive, the list of examples below illustrates conditions under which condensation is likely to occur:
1. Bridging system thermal break with non-thermally broken metal flashing or lintels that are exposed to the
exterior.
2. System exposure to cold air cavities.
3. Interior relative humidity levels not maintained at recommended levels, see EFCO's "Understanding
Condensation" brochure.
4. Inadequate separation between system and surrounding condition at perimeter.
5. Product combinations during the shop drawing stage that result in bridging thermal breaks of one or all products
involved.

SECTION I - GENERAL NOTES
The "QUICK SET" storefront family is a ribbon window system,
having many advantages over other systems due to the minimum
fabrication and installation steps.
The Quick Set family contains primarily stock length systems with
in-the-field fabrication. Entrance doors are also a designed part of
these systems, utilizing frames that can accommodate many types
of doors and hardware combinations.
1.) Check the shop drawings, installation instructions, and glazing instructions to
become thoroughly familiar with the project. The shop drawings take precedence and
include specific details for the project. The installation instructions are of a general
nature and cover the most common conditions encountered.
2.) Check all materials on arrival and be sure you have everything required to begin
installation. See Section II "PARTS IDENTIFICATION" for parts cross reference.
3.) All work should start from bench marks and/or column center lines as established by
the architectural drawings and the general contractor. Installers should check building
construction for compliance with architectural documents to ensure the proper window
system foundation is available before installation.
4.) The term "sealant" as used in these instructions is defined as: A weather resistant,
gunnable, liquid filler which when dry provides a resilient, flexible air and water seal
between similar and dissimilar materials. Use Dow Corning 795 or equivalent when
silicone sealant is required, and PTI 707 or equivalent when butyl type sealant is
required.
All sealant must be compatible with all surfaces on which adhesion is required, including
other sealant surfaces. All frame surfaces should be clean and dry. All perimeter
substrate shall be cleaned and properly treated to receive sealant.
5.) All materials are to be installed plumb, level, and true.
6.) Protect materials after erection. Cement, plaster, alkaline solutions, and acid based
materials can be harmful to the finish. Clean exposed finished surfaces with a mild
detergent and water. No abrasive cleaning agent should be used.

A. Ensure that all tooling is correct before assembly. For each D.L.O. there
should be a deep pocket and a shallow pocket. If only one D.L.O. is required,
both pockets will be deep. The glass will not be able to be loaded with two
shallow pockets. Also, keep all deep pockets on center D.L.O.'s on the same
side of the D.L.O. See Fig. 1 below.

STEP 6) CHALK LINE FOR SUBSILL
Before installing the subsill, measure the distance from the exterior of
the condition to the desired location at the EXTERIOR of the subsill. (The
exterior of the subsill will be flush with the rest of the system.) Do this at
both ends of the condition. Snap a chalk line between the two marks to
align the subsill. If the condition is too wide for just two marks, measure
every 15 feet and snap a chalk line.

STEP 11) SUBSILL SPLICING
Verify that the subsill has been installed according to the instructions on Pages 9
through 14. Splice areas are to be centered at a vertical mullion only. Maximum
subsill length between splices is 20’. If a splice is required, leave a 1/4" gap between
the subsill ends at the splice area. Install and anchor the next run of subsill. Use a
silicone type sealant and a strip of, WM01, bond breaker tape 2" wide and
approximately 7 3/4" long to create the splice material. Apply silicone to both sides
of the subsill ends and fill the void between the subsills as shown in Figure 17.
Ensure that the bond breaker tape is centered over the 1/4" gap, and set the bond
breaker tape into the sealant. Tool the silicone over the bond breaker tape to create
a water tight seal. If more sealant is required to cover the bond breaker tape, apply
the required amount. Ensure that the splice joint does not interfere with the anchor
legs of the sill and subsill. This is done by making sure that the splice joint is located
at the center of the vertical mullions. Refer to the shop drawings or architectural
drawings for mullion center lines.

Determine that the subsill has been installed according to the instructions listed on Pages 13
through 20. Assemble the appropriate extrusions to create the required corner member.
Utilize the fasteners shown in Figures 19 through 21A on Pages 21 and 22. The fasteners
should be installed 6" from each end and 12" on center. Install the appropriate assembled
corner member into the subsill. It may be necessary to temporarily brace the vertical corner
member until the adjacent ladders are installed and anchored.
If door openings are required on a run that incorporates a corner member, begin at the door
frame and assemble towards the corner area with the required ladders. Unassembled
corner extrusions must be attached to the ladders, and the corner member must be
assembled after installation of both adjacent ladders.

STEP 8) SNAPPING THE EXPANSION MULLION
(CAPTURED SYSTEM SHOWN, STRUCTURAL GLAZE D SYSTEM SIM IL AR )
To snap the expansion mullion together, line up the mullion halves and
gaskets. See Figure 39. Place one clamp at the bottom of the expansion
mullion using wood blocks to protect the extrusions. Tighten the C-clamp until
the expansion mullion halves begin to snap together. Place another set of
wood blocks and a C-clamp at the middle of the expansion mullion and tighten
it. Then repeat the same process on the top. Tighten the C-clamps until the
sight line becomes 2 1/2". It may be necessary to work from one clamp to the
next several times, or move the clamps, to ensure the mullions are snapped
together evenly. S ee Fig ure 40 . DO NOT try to hamme r the expansion mullio
together! This will dent, bend, scratch, or deform the expansion mullion and
may cause it to leak. Anchor the head using the requirements on Page 27
before installing the next ladder using the requirements on Page 30. If this is
the last ladder, anchor the jambs as required on Page 28 and proceed to the
perimeter sealing process, Step 11 on Page 33.

STEP 6C) GLASS INSTALLATION (STRUCTURAL GLAZED)
- For the followin g steps, use Figures 64 and 65.
A) Make sure the setting blocks are placed at 1/4 points in each D.L.O. or as required on the
architectural drawings. (See Figure 57 on Page 41)
B) Position the glass at the exterior of the framing with the head and sill face covers removed.
Lift the glass into the frame and onto the setting blocks.
C) Shift the glass into the poc ket in the perimeter jamb until there is the correct glass bite on
both edges of the D.L.O. (7/16" captured vertical or 7/8" SSG vertical)
D) Install the appropriate covers. Place temporary pieces of the glazing gasket along the head,
perimeter jamb, and sill. Place the temporary glazing clips in the structural mullio n r a ce a n d
rotate to hold glass at the structural mullion. See Figure 64. Install all glazing gaskets. See
Step 8 on Page 45. Install the next lite before filling the structural glazing gap. See Step 9 on

STEP 7) FACE COVER SPLICING
Splicing of the head and sill face covers can be accomplished at any place along the horizontal
span. Splicing of the intermediate horizontal face covers must be done at the center line of a
vertical mullion. Ensure that the face cover end cuts are square, clean of burrs or sharp edges,
and clean of all cutting oils or other contaminants. Space the face covers 1/4" apart at the
required splice area. If necessary, use small diameter backer rod to support the splice joint
sealant. Fill the splice joint gap with a silicone type sealant, and tool smooth to create a
weather tight and cosmetic seal. See Figure 66.

STEP 8) INSTALLATION OF GLAZING GASKET
INSIDE GLAZED
Install W160 gasket at the vertical members. See note below. Install W160 gasket into the
horizontal members so th ey fit tightly into the vertical gaskets. (D.L.O. + 2%)
OUTSIDE GLAZED
Install W160 gasket at the vertical members. See note below. Install W160 gasket into the
horizontal members so th ey fit tightly into the vertical gaskets. (D.L.O. + 2%)
STRUCTURAL GLAZED
Install W160 gasket at the vertical members. See note below. Install W160 gasket into the
horizontal members so they run c ontinuously from perimeter to perimeter across the structural
glazed mullion.
NOTE: To install W160 gasket, start by pushing the gasket in place at the ends. Move to the
middle, then to quarter points and work the "WAVES" toward the ends.
DO NOT STRETCH
THE GASKET OR IT WILL RETURN TO ITS ORIGINAL FORM, CREATING GAPS AT THE
GASKET INTERSECTIONS.

STEP 9) FILLING TH E ST RUCTURAL GLAZI N G GAP
- THIS PROCEDURE APPLIES TO THE STANDARD STRUCTURAL GLAZED
VERTICAL AND THE STRUCTURAL GLAZED EXPANSION MULLION. -
After the int erior sealant has cured, typically an overnight setup is required. Mask off the
glass edges with masking tape to minimize cleanup and provide a professional
appearance. Then remove the temporary glazing clips and proceed with filling the void
between the glass units at the exterior with backer rod and structural silicone sealant for
a weather tight seal. At the horizontal members, fill the cavity with sealant to fill th e vo id
out to the gasket. See Figure 68. Tool sealant using a putty knife across the glass
edges. Remove excess silicone from the glass surface by rem o vi n g the ma ski n g tape
before a skin begins to form. Any ex cess sealant on the glass units can be removed with
a razor blade.

STEP 1) DOOR STOP CUT LENGTH AND INSTALLATION
DOOR STOP
Install the applied door stop into position on the door frame by spacing it off the exterior face of
the door frame at the appropriate dimension, depending on door thickness. Using STT6
fasteners, 3" from each end and 12" O.C., fasten the door stop to the door jamb and door header.
After determining that the door stop is in the correct position, apply the door stop cover by
snapping it into the door stop raceway. See Figure 69.

STEP 2) TRANSOM GLASS STOP CUT LENGTH AND
INSTALLATION
TRANSOM LITE GLASS STOP
Install the transom lite glass stop with the long glass stop leg flush to the exterior of the door
framing at the transom area. Use a silicone type sealant the full perimeter of the transom lite
glass stop in the sealant raceway and at the ends to provide a water tight seal. Make sure that
all horizontal members run through. This will ensure that a water dam is established. Using
STT6 fasteners, 3" from each end and 12" on center, fasten the transom glass stop to the
appropriate door frame member. Drill 1/4" diameter weep holes 6" from each end in the face of
the transom lite glass stop or in the face of the transom lite door header, whichever is applicable.
In concealed overhead closure applications, install a transom lite glass stop horizontally on the
door header. See Figure 70.
