FrameTec structural profile – for reliable stability at great heights
Is your FrameTec Select 2.0 system up to 4 metres high, or do you require additional stability? Then this structural profile is the ideal solution. It ensures a tested, secure anchoring of your system to the floor and ceiling – straightforward and reliable.Corner connector sets 1 (BO 5220921) should be used to connect the glazing profiles to the floor and ceiling. Corner connector sets 2 (BO 5220922) should be used to connect the frame profiles to the floor. The structural profile is positioned flush on the hinge side – this ensures a clean appearance whilst leaving sufficient space for the door hinges.Recommended accessories:Frame profiles: Pan-head screws 4.8 × 32 mm (DIN 7981)Glazing profiles: Pan-head screws 4.8 × 16 mm (DIN 7504)
Application note:
According to the structural analysis, stable anchoring to the floor and ceiling is required to ensure the structural integrity of tall FrameTec installations. The BO 5220921 corner connectors must be used to connect the glazing profiles to the structural profile, as well as to the floor and ceiling. The BO 5220922 floor mounting brackets must be used to connect the frame profiles to the structural profile and the floor.
Further recommended fastenings for the connection between the structural profile and the frame or glazing profiles:
Self-tapping pan-head screws.
Preparing the profiles:
Pre-drill the glazing and frame profiles every 300 mm.
Drill diameter: 6 mm.
If necessary, Deburr the rear of the drill holes to ensure a gap-free joint.
Advantage of pre-drilling:
Enables fine adjustment of the elements after installation.
Screw recommendation (example):
Frame profiles: pan-head screws 4.8 × 32 mm, DIN 7981.
Glazing profiles: pan-head screws 4.8 × 16 mm, DIN 7504.
