The system is glazed using standard glazing putty which can be aquired from any hardware store. No special requirents are necessary as glazing putty will not react to the powdercoated aluminium.
Ensure that you select a silicone which is arroved for aluminium systems as it is used extensively to ensure that the mechanical joints are correctly sealed.
Failure to seal the window will result in window leakage.
The preferred method of installation is to use seperate wall plugs and stainless steel screws. Nail in anchors may be used but can intefere with the glazing if the heads protrude too much into the glazing cavity. Please ensure that the screws used are no less that 50mm long and are stainless steel. Non-stainess steel screws can cause the aluminium to corrode.
This manual must be read in conjunction with the Installation, Cleaning & Maintenance Document and the Performance Certificates for the relevant system. The manual must also be used in conjunction with the design and cutting list from the latest version of StarFront.

The system can be assembled using domed head rivets on the frame and countersunk riv-ets on the hardware if preferred. (All aspects of assembly stay the same with just the final fastners changing)
A standard putty knife can be used in the glazing as long as care is taken not to scratch the powdercoated surface.
It is advisable to find a plastic putty knife or applica-tor to ensure that the powdercoating is not damaged during the glazing process.
Aluminium is a soft metal and can be easily cut witha framing saw or a hacksaw with a miter box. Better quality the cutting methods will result in better quality joints.
Use a fine tooth blade or a blade specified for aluminium cutting.
If you are using an electric saw, ensure that you are using an aluminium saw blade.
NOTE: Do not cut the profiles with steel cutting methods such as abrasive discs. This will result in the powdercoating melting and being permenantly damaged.
Always wear eye protection when cutting aluminium as slivers of aluminium can seriously damage the eye.Always wear eye protection when handling the glass.
Always gloves when cutting aluminium as the slivers are sharp and can cause splinters. Always wear gloves when handling glass.

It is advisable when calculating the outer frame size to leave a 5mm space all around the window to compensate for any building issues.
To ensure that your sizes are accurate, the profiles need to be cut to compensate for the outerframe corner connectors.
Cut Length = (Outer Frame Length) - (62mm)
Cut Length = (31mm) - (22mm)
Each corner block measures 31mm
The same calculation can be applied to the vertical cross members (mullions)

Before affixing the connector, ensure that the area is clear of debris and apply enough silicone to ensure a perfect seal between the plastic component and the aluminium profile.
Note: Do not assemble profiles into the Cross Connector until final assembly and checking is complete. The Cross Connector has small ridges which are designed to shear off when the profile is inserted to ensure a tight fit.Note: Prior to installing the cross member, ensure
that the cross connector is coated with silicone.
Note: Ensuring that there is adequate silicone between the outer frame profile and the cross connector is critical to the systems performance.

Slide the Outer Frame Corner Connector into the aluminium profile ensuring that it meets firmly with the connector block.
Note: There are two cylinders within the connector blocks. Drilling and the placement of the rivets must be through these items to ensure a solid grip.
Check that the corner is well seated and that there is no play. If necessary, add a small amouth of silicone into the joint and smooth to seal the slight gap between the pofile and the corner component.
Allow to cure completely before handling as silicone will pick up dirt.
Important Note: Cover the Corner Connector with Silicone prior to insertion to maximise the sealing of the joint.
With the outerframe extrusions cut to size ensure that the ends are clean and free of debris and burrs. Aluminium can be deburred using a sharp knife. Silicone the connector arms before insertion.

Prior to glazing, ensure that the spacer is in place as this will privent the glass from breaking during operation.
As with all aluminium systems, glazing spacers are a critical element in the window system. Do not glaze the window with them in place.
Ensure the putty is warm and well worked to make it pliable. Inert enough putty to ensure that when press in, it will also fill the cavity under the glass.
Ensure that the air under the glass can be pushed out through the spacers.
Skim the top of the putty to give it a smooth flush look.
The putty will harden over time according to the manufacturers indications.
TIP: Builders Acrylic Filler or silicone can also be used for glazing. This will allow your glazing to match the frame. Please note the correct drying times for using these products so as not to have any issues with glass moving.

Important Note: Location of the holes is critical to the integrity of the corners. Placing the holes in the wrong place can cause the corner block to crack and distort the frame. Measuring correctly and pre-marking the holes is critical.
Important Note: Do not over tighten the screw fixings as this will distort the frame. With correct packing and alignment the frame should be secure and straight. Too much pressure will cause the frame to flare and the system may fail.
