IF YOU ARE FITTING BETWEEN THE
REVEAL UNDER A LINTEL, THE BOX
WILL NEED EXTRA SUPPORT TO ENSURE
CONTACT WITH THE CURTAIN DOES
NOT OCCUR.
BOX SUPPORTS ARE AN AIDE TO KEEP THE BOX FREE FROM THE CURTAIN
BEHIND A SUPPORTED LINTEL. THEY ARE NOT SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT
AND PROTECT THE BOX UNDER A LINTEL.
TOP TIP: MANY INSTALLERS USE A TIMBER HEADER ACROSS THE SPAN
OF THE OPENING AT THE TOP AND COVER WITH PVC AS A POSSIBLE
SOLUTION.
THE BOX SHOULD BE SUPPORTED AT THE FRONT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE
WITH THE AMOUNT OF EXPOSED BOX NOT EXCEEDING 100MM.

TOP TIP: MANY
INSTALLERS USE
PVC STRIP OR
PACKERS TO
SPACE GUIDES
& HEADPLATES
OFF THE WALL
TO ENSURE THE
CURTAIN DOES
NOT CONTACT
ANY POINT
OF THE LINTEL
DURING TRAVEL.
