Assembly and Installation<br />

Glazing of Frames<br />

When producing silicone glazing the actual glazing of the<br />

frames has to be carried out under factory conditions so<br />

that the sealants are given time to cure to produce a<br />

strong bond.<br />

Once the frame is constructed the double glaze panel can<br />

be installed.<br />

Apply the high bond glazing tape to the four sides of the<br />

frame as shown cutting the joints at 45º so that they<br />

match the mitred corners of the frame.<br />

Fit the double glaze unit into the frame with the larger<br />

pane to the outside ensuring that the frame is square and<br />

equally spaced around all four sides.<br />

Apply the black silicone sealant into the recess as shown<br />

below ensuring the sealant goes into the corners and<br />

completely fills the recess. This must be carried out<br />

around all four sides of each individual frame.<br />

Clean off any excess sealant from the frame and glass.<br />

Leave the frames to cure in accordance with the sealant<br />

manufacturers instructions before transporting to site.<br />
