Installation Notes

1. Do not drop, roll or drag boxes of aluminum framing. Move and stack boxes with proper support to prevent distortion. If fork lifts are used be especially careful about striking the boxes when lifting or moving.

2. Store in a dry, out of the way area. If rain exposure, condensation or any water contact is likely, then all packaging material should be removed. Wet packaging materials will discolor and may stain aluminum finishes and paints.

3. All materials should be checked for quality and quantity upon receipt, YKK AP must be notified immediately of any discrepancies in shipment. Check to make sure that you have the required shims, sealants, supplies and tools necessary for the installation.

4. Carefully check the openings and surrounding conditions that will receive your material.

Remember, if the construction is not per the construction documents, it is your responsibility to notify the general contractor in writing. Any discrepancies must be brought to the general contractor’s attention before you proceed with the installation.

5. Gather your shop drawings, materials, packing list, and this installation manual. Carefully review parts location, the sequence it goes therein, when you glaze it and how you seal it. Installation instructions are of a general nature and may not cover every condition you will encounter. The shop drawings and/or installation manuals were prepared specifically for the product.

6. Any material substitutions must be of equal or greater quality.

7. Make certain that material samples have been sent for compatibility testing for all manufacturer’s sealants involved. Make certain sealants have been installed in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations and specifications.

8. Remember to isolate, in an approved manner, all aluminum from uncured masonry or other incompatible materials.

9. System-to-structure fasteners are not supplied by YKK AP. Fasteners called out on shop drawings are to indicate minimum sizes for design loading.

10. Entrances are to be installed plumb, square, level, and true.

11. If any questions arise concerning YKK AP products or their installation, contact YKK AP for clarification before proceeding.

12. YKK AP storefront and/or curtain wall framing is typically completed before drywall, flooring and other products which may still be in process. Take the extra time to wrap and protect the installed material.

13. Cutting tolerances are plus zero (0”), minus one thirty second (-1/32”) unless otherwise noted.

14. Check our website, www.ykkap.com, for the latest installation manual update prior to commencing work.

Frequently Answers and Questions

What is the minimum shim requirement for the sill flashing?
The minimum shim requirement for the sill flashing is 3/8”.
What is the maximum fastener spacing for anchoring the sill flashing to the structure?
The maximum fastener spacing for anchoring the sill flashing to the structure is 18” to 24” on center.
What type of sealant should be used to seal the flashing at the splice location?
A compatible silicone sealant should be used at the splice location. Compatible silicone sealants include Tremco® Spectrem 2® and Dow Corning® 795.
What is the minimum glass size required for the system?
The minimum glass size required is determined by the daylight opening (D.L.O.) plus (+) 3/4”.
What is the purpose of the anti-walk block?
The anti-walk block helps to prevent the glass from moving or slipping out of place during installation and use.
