The following instruction guide demonstrates how to get professional results from our made to measure Bolt-on, Soffit Fix - PVC strip curtains.

• Slide the M8 nuts into the centre slot and along the track
• Place the brackets over the M8 nuts and tighten into position using the countersunk bolts
• Place the brackets no more than 1200mm apart and no more than 200mm in from each end of the track
• The "L" shapes brackets should be arranged so that each alternate bracket is facing the opposite side of the track
• Slide the required number of M8 bolts down both sides of the track ready to receive the curtain strips
• Secure the brackets with track attached to brickwork and concrete with raw-bolts, to steelwork with high tensile nuts & bolts and to timber with coach screws or large gauge wood screws
• Push each pre drilled pvc strip over the bolts with the concave side facing the track
• Hold each strip to the track using the aluminium plate, thread the M8 nuts onto the bolt but do not tighten fully
• Slide the strip to the desired starting place before tightening the nuts

  For 50% overlap each strip should be placed at a distance from each other that it overlaps by a quarter of the width of each strip, like this:
• Finally trim the bottom of each strip to the desired length using a sharp knife
