Section 13 - Glazing Preparation
1. Depending on your specific installation sequence, it may me desirable to install temporary glazing retainers to hold the infill glazing in the opening. Apply the
retainers as needed: however, it is suggested that they be spaced no more than 30” apart. They are intended for short term temporary applications only and
are not to be left unattended, or overnight. {Temporary Retainers do not meet structural requirements and can fail under structural loads.}
Note: Temporary retainer clips are available from EFCO by request only and are NOT Included in the estimated cost of the materials for the
job.
