Installation Instructions
Standard, Ceiling Hung and
Floor to Ceiling Plastic Partitions.
Partition Layout
Use floor plans to measure out from both ends of unit ½” less than overall depth to determine centerline of pilasters. Strike a chalk line at this location. (Figure A)

Pilaster Shoe Installation
Determine Drilling Locations: Use floor plans to determine the exact location of pilaster
shoes. All pilaster widths and door opening sizes are measured from the inside edge of
the pilaster shoe to the inside edge of the next pilaster shoe. Carefully mark the center
of the elongated holes located on the bottom of the pilaster shoe. ( Figure C)
Figure C
Drilling and Shoe Mounting:
After removing pilaster shoe from
chalk line, drill two 5/16” Dia.
Holes with masonry bit as
marked along the chalk line. Insert the #14-16 plastic anchor in
hole. Place the pilaster shoe in
location and attach to the floor
using #14- 1 ½” screws and 1/4”
stainless washers.

Continuous Wall Bracket Installation
Place continuous wall brackets (Double Ear or Single Ear) at their appropriate locations.
Using each individual continuous wall bracket as a template, align the hole pattern
between the flanges of the bracket with the previously marked panel centerline.
Important! Do not flip or move continuous wall brackets from
original marked locations as the hole patterns may not match.
Mark the wall bracket hole patterns. Drill holes with a 5 /16” glass and tile bit for
ceramic tiled walls or a 5/16” masonry bit for block walls. Insert #14-16 plastic anchors into holes and attach the wall bracket with #14- 1 ½” Torx head screws.

Panel Installation
Note! Heat Dissipation Strip is to be installed at the bottom of panel.
Locate a 14”x14”x 14” block at the midpoint between the pilaster shoe and wall. Place the panel
on the block and into the flanges of the continuous wall bracket. Make sure to leave a ½” gap
between the panel and wall ( ½” std. gap may vary).
Next, make sure the panel is level and plumb.
If using sex bolts, drill ¼” holes through the panel and opposite holes in flange of the wall
bracket. A 3/16” pilot is to be used.
If using 3/4” #14 screws, Be careful not to drill through panel. This hole is only a pilot hole.
Fasten the panel to the wall bracket with the sex bolts provided or 3/4” #14 screws.
