Assembly Instructions for Datchet Glass Balustrades

1. Erect Wooden Newel Posts.

2. Measure distance between posts.

3. Deduct 5cm from the distance between the posts to calculate the width of the glass. (This allows a 2.5cm gap between the edge of the glass and the post. This gap is required for the glass clamps.)

4. Please note: the glass clamps have lugs in them. These are not required unless the glass overhangs the decking. In the event of the glass slipping, it will only slip to the deck level. We do not supply drilled glass for overhanging balustrades.

5. Measure height of glass that you require.

6. Place your order for Glass Clamps and glass.

7. The glass and Glass Clamps will arrive separately. You should allow around 3 weeks for the receipt of the glass as it is cut to your size and then tempered.

8. Remove the lugs from the glass clamps.

9. Screw the clamps to the wood post. In placing these clamps ensure that if the glass slipped to the deck level, that the top clamp will still support the glass.

10. Assemble the glass between the posts.
