BGD36 NAILING TAB INSTALLATION

5.4.1 Attach the nailing tabs to the
corner posts using the 2
sheet metal screws supplied.
Secure through the centre of
the top and bottom slots in
the nailing tab and then
through the existing holes in
the corner posts.
If there are no existing holes,
follow these instructions:
Position the nailing tab so
that the front face is offset
with the front edge of the
corner post (approx. ½").
Centre the nailing tab
vertically on the corner post.
Drill through the centre of the top and
bottom slots in the nailing tab. Secure using the
two sheet metal screws supplied. This allows the
nailing tab to slide back and forth for desired
framing.
5.5.2 To determine the fi nal location of the nailing tab
you must fi rst determine the thickness of your
fi nishing material (i.e. drywall). This will determine the dimension from the front edge of the corner post
to the nailing tab. Once the nailing tab is in the desired location, drill through the centre hole of the
nailing tab. Secure with a sheet metal screw*.
* Additional set screws may be installed.
