Eclipse BI-FOLD Installation Instructions

7. HANG PIVOTING PANEL(S)
First, insert the bottom pin into the bottom
pivot bracket. Push the top door plate onto the
adjustable nut of the top pivot. To plumb the
panels, loosen the set nut on the top pivot. Move
the panel until plumb then tighten set nut. The
bottom pivot is also adjustable as necessary.
8. HANG REMAINING PANELS
Hang the next panel by connecting the top door
bracket to the wheel carrier. Then, align the hinges
of the two panels and insert the hinge pins. Adjust
the wheel carrier to level by using the enclosed
wrench. Repeat this process for all remaining
panels
9. SNUGGERS
The snuggers are used to provide tension on
Bi-Folding panels, so that the panels remain in
position when closed. Once the panels are fully
installed, loosen the set screw of the snugger and
position so that the wheel carrier will slightly press
against the rubber bumper
10. BI-FOLD PANEL GUIDES
It will be necessary to apply bi-fold panel guides
on all one-way close bi-fold track systems with
side frames. The panel guides will be applied to the
non-pivot side frame. Apply the first panel guide
2" up from the bottom of the frame. The second
panel guide is located at the divider rail location or
in the center of the side frame. A single #6 x 3/4"
screw is used to attach the guides to the frame.
The guide sits in the corner against the lightblock
as shown below.
11. ATTACH VALANCE
Attach valance brackets to the front of the frame
using the included #6 x 3/4" screws, the installation
holes should be pre-drilled. Once all brackets are
secure, position the channel on the back of the
valance so that it rests on the bracket. The valance
will need to be on a 45 degree angle, with the
bottom of the valance farther into the room. Rotate
the valance down to a vertical orientation until
locked into all brackets
12. VALANCE RETURNS
Depending on application, there are two installation
methods:
1. If the returns will contact or come too close to
the wall, install front valance then attach returns.
2. If there is sufficient room, attach returns to front
valance and install as an assembled unit. If the
returns are longer than 2 3/4", then a frame corner
key can be used to help locate the return. Glue the
corner key into the return, then attach the return
to the front valance. To attach, use Loctite 414 and
apply a thin line of glue around the walls of the front
valance. Position the return against the front valance
and hold until dry. If the bottom of the valance with
returns tilts upward, then add hinge shims behind
each valance bracket. Loosen each bracket and
position a shim behind the bracket, above the screw
and re-tighten screw.
