Section 9 - Channel Adaptors
(Optional Hardware)
If opening is not suitable for direct
mounting due to uneven surfaces,
stonework, trim, or other irregular
element, use Channel Adaptors to
build in or fur out an opening for Side
Channel or headbox attachment.
Channel Adaptors can provide a
mounting surface for both the Side
Channels and headbox. If necessary,
installer can "stack" a sufficient
number of tubes to bring the opening
flush from floor to ceiling.
Use and configuration of Channel Adaptors
is site dependent: Each installation may
require different adaptors or a combination of
adaptors. Installer is responsible for safely and
securely attaching Channel Adaptors to prepare
each opening for best installation of the product.
