Installation Guide
Align-Pilates recommend using a suitably qualified Tradesman to install this product. Such a Tradesman can
assess the suitability/strength of the wall to accept the unit and can select the appropriate wall fixing to
attach the unit securely to the wall. Align-Pilates does not supply wall fixings with this product as these are
dependent on the type of wall which the unit is being attached to.
Note before Installing: The Bottom Maple Frame bar & bracket are usually installed on the floor, however
where the floor is uneven the Barre bar frame can be installed off the floor. In these cases, please keep in
mind the Barre bar in its lowest position will be 12.5cms higher than the mounting position. Similarly if
there is a skirting board present you can either a) Install the unit above the skirting board b) Remove the
section of skirting board c) Make a timber spacer to place behind the top wall mounting plate, to be of
equal thickness to the skirting board.
1) Lay out the chrome uprights and the top and bottom Maple
Frames on the floor as in fig 1. The maple bar with the
Align-Pilates logo plate is the top and the eyelets should face
down toward the bottom maple bar.
2) The inside of each chrome uprights has only 4 holes.
Slide on one of the spring carriage holders and
then the Barre bar carriage holder followed by the
Gasket, black face first, onto the Chrome uprights from the
bottom as shown in fig 2.
3) Using the Allen key, loosely attach the bottom maple
frame using the 30mm Black Hex headed bolt to each of
the chrome uprights. At this point double check the chrome
uprights have 10 holes facing outward and that the
carriage holders are on correctly.
4) At the top of each chrome upright, slide a Black gasket, Black side face first onto upright.
5) Using the 2 remaining Black Hex headed bolts tighten the top Maple Bracket fully and then tighten
the bottom Maple Bracket fully also.
6) Take the frame to the wall and using a SPIRIT LEVEL, ensure the top of the frame is horizontal. Mark
this position and then set aside frame.
7) Remove the metal mounting plates from the Top Maple frame. Now affix this metal bracket using
strong fixings suitable for the your wall type (seek advice from a qualified Tradesman).
8) Insert frame over top metal mounting plate and slide into position. Check Horizontal again using a
SPIRIT LEVEL and mark lower wall attachment. Again affix as above.
9) Both wall mounting plates should now be correctly attached to the wall and in position to receive
the Maple frame. slide the frame over the protruding bolts. Add washer to bolt and gradually
tighten each of the 8 nuts until the Barre Bar frame is securely attached to the wall.
10) Insert the black plastic blanking plates that cover the bolt holes.
11) Remove the white self adhesive backing of each gasket and stick in situ to the maple frame.
12) Screw in the black Sprung Locator Bolts into the Spring and Barre Bar carriages.
13) Slide Barre bar through the metal rings on each side and attach into place using the twist knobs.
14) Clip double ended dog clips to each end of the purple springs. Clip a karabiner to each end of the
short yellow springs. Clip a handle or foot strap to each of the purple springs and then attach the
top end to the spring carriage. Clip the yellow spring karabiners to the left and right metal loops in
the top of the Barre frame and the bottom karabiners to the trapeze bar.
