Aluminium side profiles to BS1474. One main bar and one secondary
bar which, when linked, behave as one. Both profiles are complete
with water-managed systems and are designed to work in a format without
seals. Available in mill finish or powder coated white to RAL 9910
BS6496. Other colours are available on request. A high quality extruded
uPVC under-cladding profile clips to the main profile to enhance the
thermal properties of the assembly and reduce the possibility of condensation.
Fixings must be high quality stainless steel, of a type suitable for
the sub-structure to which the panels are being fixed. Stainless steel
greatly reduces the possibility of an electrolytic reaction at the
bar/fixing interface.

Xlok Express panels are delivered to site with a protective film
covering the glazing, which must be removed after installation.
Panels should be treated with care. Unloading and manoeuvring is
usually easiest by hand. Panels must never be exposed to weather
before installation and should be stored in clean, dry conditions,
protected against direct sunlight and in an upright position.
Polycarbonate rooflights should only be cleaned with copious amounts
of warm soapy water solution and a soft cloth. Never use solvents
or alkaline cleaners or thinners. Do not scrub with brushes or sharp
instruments, as these will mark the surface. If a rooflight is found
to be damaged it must be replaced. |
