Series 5600 Inside Glazed Installation Instructions
Section IV: Perimeter Application
Determine Installation Method
A.) Two types of perimeter applications are possible, including “F” perimeter anchors
or mullion anchors with continuous pressure plate pocket fillers. “F” perimeter
anchors should only be used in small “punched” openings that can be assembled
on the floor and set into the opening. Mullion anchors are generally used in
situations where mullions are erected one at a time, in sequence with
corresponding horizontals. Regardless of the installation method selected, the
remaining installation instructions are consistent between the two systems.

Fill gasket raceway in top and bottom of
each vertical mullion with sealant to

*Note: Perimeter caulking of the primary
seal must be done prior to glazing
when using this application.
