Before you begin, note the following…
• Caution, safety first! Be certain to have and use the proper safety gear.
• Structural support in the walls, floors and/or ceiling is not supplied by Metpar. Verify that
adequate blocking has been installed where necessary before you proceed.
• This installation manual is intended to be used in conjunction with the layout drawings
prepared by Metpar. Refer to the layout drawings for further information such as; product
style (ie: The Corinthian FP-500 Overhead Braced), stall width and depth, ceiling height (for
ceiling hung or floor-to-ceiling), individual component sizes (ie: panels, stiles &/or doors), etc.
You will need the layout drawings to determine the centerline markings for drilling locations.
• When the material is shipped to you, an Initial Release (packing list) is included. Be certain
that all items you need have been ordered and shipped properly.
Suggested Tools…
For your convenience, we recommend that you have the following tools;
Tape measure, chalk line, pencil, masking tape (to help you layout drilling locations), electric or
battery operated drill, drill bits including torx pin head T27 bit, screwdriver (slotted and phillips
head), center punch, plumb-bob, level, hacksaw, hammer, shims, support blocks (12” high).

Metpar tips…
1. Plan ahead… coordinate all of the materials and hardware for each specific layout. Study
your layout drawings and evaluate any special conditions that may require custom size
materials, unique hardware or special tools.
2. When you determine the centerline dimensions, refer to the stall depths shown on your
layout drawings. For Powder Shield, Stainless Steel and Plastic Laminate pilasters, the
centerline is 5/8” less than the stall depth. Solid Phenolic pilasters are 3/8” less.
3. Read all of these instructions carefully and thoroughly. Reading this manual first will better
prepare you for the entire installation.
P1
? Hardware Nomenclature…
What does “P1” mean? What are all those little circles on my layout drawing? These indicate
the hardware to be used at that location. Each one is an abbreviation for the bracket type.
Each hardware package is marked with the same notation for easier identification.
• P1 = One ear panel bracket
• P2 = Two ear panel bracket
• P3 = One ear Alcove panel bracket
• PF = “PF” Screen with panel and post
• WH = Wall Hung Urinal Screen
• S1S = Stile one-ear short bracket (2” stiles only)
• S1L = Stile one-ear long bracket (3” & up)
• S3S & S3L = Same as S1S & S1L with 3 brackets
• S1LP = Stile one-ear bracket against panel
• S3M = Post one-ear mini bracket (3 per)
• EHR = End HeadRail brackets
• DB1 = Door Bumper
• H-1 = Inswing Door Hardware
• H-2 = Outswing Door Hardware
• H-3 = Entry Door Hardware
• P-S-1 = Inswing Post to Stile Door Hardware (post on hinge side of door & stile on strike side)
• P-S-2 = Outswing Post to Stile Door Hardware (post on hinge side of door & stile on strike side)
