GENERAL INFORMATION:
The Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope PW 90 and PW 180 sliding mall
fronts represent the latest in product development technology
complemented by glazing contractor on-the-job input and
experience. Proper use of these systems will assure optimum
results in erection and long term performance.
Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope does not control the application nor
selection of its product configurations, sealant or glazing materials
and assumes no responsibility thereof. It is the responsibility of
the owner,architect and installer to make these selections in
strict compliance with applicable laws and building codes.
PROTECTION AND STORAGE:
Handle the material carefully. Do not drop from the truck. Stack
with adequate separation so that the material will not rub together. Store material off the ground. Protect against the elements
and other construction hazards by using a well ventilated covering. Remove material from package if it is wet or is located in a
TM
TM
damp area.
CHECK MATERIAL:
Check all material upon arrival for quality and to assure against
shipping damage. Any visible damage must be noted on the
freight bill at the time of receipt. If a claim is required, then the
receiving party must process a claim with the freight company.
Completely check construction which will receive your materials
against contract documents. Notify the general contractor by letter of any discrepancies before proceeding with the work.
Failure to do so constitutes acceptance of work by other trades.
Check shop drawings and installation instructions to become
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. Due to varying job conditions, all sealants used
should be approved by the sealant manufacturer to insure they
will function for conditions shown on instructions and shop
drawings. They must be compatible with all surfaces in which
adhesion is required including other sealant surfaces. Use
primers where directed by manufacturer of sealants. Be sure to
properly store sealants at recommended temperatures and
check sealant for remainder of shelf life before using.
FIELD CONDITIONS:
• Not recommended for exterior use where door must be watertight.
• All materials to be installed plumb, level, and true. Aluminum to
be placed in direct contact with the masonry or incompatible
materials should be isolated with a heavy coat of zinc-chromate
or bituminous paint.
• Coordinate protection of installed materials with general con-
tractors and other trades.
CLEANING MATERIALS:
Cement, plaster, terrazzo, alkaline and acid based materials used
to clean masonry are very harmful to finishes and should be
removed with water and a mild soap immediately or permanent
staining will occur. A spot test is recommended before any
cleaning agent is used.
MAINTENANCE:
Keep tracks free of debris, including areas where panels stack.
Wax tracks periodically using wax stick. Actual waxing schedule
depends on door use factors, including traffic, season and climate, but once a week in high traffic areas should keep panels
operating smoothly.
