SIDING<br />
Various types of sidings can be attached to the <strong>Quad</strong>-<strong>Lock</strong> System. The <strong>Quad</strong>-<strong>Lock</strong><br />
FS Panel provides built in Fastening Strips, for a continuous vertical point of<br />
attachment every 12" [30cm] on center. Consult the siding manufacturer’s<br />
specifications for fastener spacing, and wind load requirements. Always be sure to<br />
use an exterior rated screw fastener that complies with the siding manufacturer’s<br />
information.<br />
Nailing into <strong>Quad</strong>-<strong>Lock</strong> FS strips is not an acceptable alternative, as the nails do not<br />
generate enough holding power in the FS strips.<br />
Alternatively, vertical or horizontal 1x4 furring material can be screwed to <strong>Quad</strong>-<br />
<strong>Lock</strong> Ties every 12" [305mm] or 24" [610mm]. Siding material can then be attached<br />
to these external furring strips.<br />
