STABLE PANEL INSTALLATION GUIDE

DurastallTM stable panel’s unique modular design allows a variety of size options.
By using a combination of the threedifferent modular panels (861mm,1236mm &1461mm)
panelsizes of up to six metres can be assembled.
 
1. DurastallTM stable panels can be installed by fixing to any internal structure
by using a variety of connection options.


A. Fix between columns using angle and end connectors (pic.6,42&44) refer construction notes included.


B. Free standing to wall frame or girt using end connector and end, double or triple connector (pic.1,10,30,43&45)


2. INSTALLING SIDE PANEL (partition)
Position first panel module into end connector and position spacer (pic.26) and fix using 12g x 20 hex tec screw (pic 15).


Position next module using spacer and fix
through 16mmholes using 14g x 22 hex tec screw
(pic.16)
Important note: Because of numerous panel
size options, not all panel modules are pre drilled with 16mm fixing holes, where necessary these holes should be created using a step drill. Fix additional panel modules to required size.


Fix connector to end of panel. This can be either angle connector(for fixing to column), double connector for free standing corner ortriple connector for free standing partition (pic22).

2. INSTALLING FRONT PANEL (Hinged Door)
The end panel modules should first be fixed to the connectorspreviously fixed to the side panels using 12g x 20mm hex tek screws (pic.30). e.g. for 3.6 std panels (3558mm) panel module DS400 (861mm) should be fixed to right side connector and panel module DS401(1461mm) should be fixed to left side connector, leaving door opening 1236mm.


Fix top rail to panels through 16mm holes in rail (pic.21) using 14gx 22 hex tek screws.
Note: Free standing panels should be checked on the
diagonal forsquare. Also check opposite corners of the stable box on thediagonal for square before fixing to slab
or pier. Note: Top rail may require cutting to length.


Panel Fixing Angles can now be fixed to slab or piers (pic.7&8) by drilling 6mm hole in slab and using metal pin anchor to fix. Fixangle to panel bottom rail using 12g x 22mm hex tek screws. It is recommended that ply or timber should be fixed to panel modules after assembly for ease of handling.


Door hinges should be fixed approx. 25mm from top and bottom edge of door frames (pic.1&9) using 14g x 22mm hex tek screws.


Fix stainless steel door catch (pic.19&20) approx. 25mm from bottom edge of top door and top edge of bottom door.

Door foot latch (pic.23) requires a 12mm hole to be drilled in the door frame approx. 100mm from bottom edge of door and secured by M12x 70mm bolt and M12 nyloc nut, the foot latch catch should be fixed to panel frame to suit. Fix cabin hook as shown using 10gx16 Hextek screw ( pic.48 & 49 )


3.FRONT PANEL (Sliding Door) For panel module assembly follow same steps as for hinged doors. Fix sliding door track to top rail by sliding the 3 brackets over rail and fix using 14g x 22mm hex tek
screws (pic.50).

Slide the two carriages into the track (pic.32).

Before hanging door fix 30x30 angle to underside
of door (pic.38) using 12g x 20mm hex tek screws.

Sliding door can now be positioned for hanging on carriages. Feed 8mm carriage adjusting screw through pre-drilled holes in top of door frame. Install adjusting nuts so the door slides freely.

The neoprene door guides (pic.46&51) are fixed to slab or pier using 6mm metal pin anchors at either side of door opening.

Install track stop (pic.52) to ensure door parks
inline with panel uprights when closed and parks within
the neoprene guide when fully open (pic.51)

Sliding door latch is fixed to panel upright by drilling 12mm hole in panel frame approx.100mm from centre horizontal rail and using M12x70mm bolt and M12 nyloc nut (pic.53) and catch positioned and fixed on door to suit using 12gx20 hex tec screws (pic.54).


Bar sections for sliding doors available as full bar, anti-weave and bar door combination, are fixed using 12gx45 hex tek screws
(pic.34).

Sliding door handle (pic.33) is fixed using 12gx20 hex tek screws at the preferred height.

4.FIXING PLY Position ply panel in panel module (pic.27)fix ply fixing angle using 12gx20 hex tek screws (pic.36) to mid rail and then to lower rail (pic.35).

5.FIXING HARDWOOD BOARDS Natural hardwood will expand and shrink according to the level of atmospheric moisture, therefore allowance must be made when installing boards. Using a board for spacing, position and fix hardwood fixing angles top (full angle) and bottom angle (with cutout) to form a channelwith the 20mm flap facing inwards (pic.13,14) using 12gx20 hextek screws, ensuring there is free movement of boards within the channel.


Slide tongue and groove boards (groove edge first) into channel (pic.24&25)final board will require cutting to size (pic5). Space tongue and grooves so they are at uniform spacing, this will allow for expansion.

Mark boards (pic.29) for drilling using cutout plate, remove plate and drill through timber and panel fin using 8mm drill bit (pic.3,4).

Insert 1/4x45 mushroom head screws and ¼ chrome dome nuts (pic.40&41)


6. Installing DurastallTM Rotating Stainless Steel Feed Bin
DurastallTM Stainless Steel Rotating Feed Bins are designed to be installed to panel module DS400 (861mm) but can be installed to DS401 (1461mm) and DS 402 (1236mm) using additional components.
Nominal height for fixing feed bin is 1m from ground to top of feed
bin frame, however, the bin can be installed at any preferred height.
Position and level feed bin frame and fix using 12g x 20 hex tek screws (pic.11). Ply will require cutting to size and fixed using ply fixing angles above and below feed bin frame. Fix ply to fixing angle and frame using ¼ x 40mm mushroom head screw and ¼ chrome dome nut (pic.17&18)
