configured in a straight line intended to divide space.
It is usually longer than the panels used to stabilize it.
Return Panels - Panels attached to a parent run for
the purpose of stabilizing it.Return panels may also
have the effect of dividing space.
FOR ADEQUATE STABILITY of the Allsteel Stride
freestanding wall partitions, one of two methods of
stabilization must be used:
Method 1. - Refer to Illustration 1.A parent panel run
must have a minimum of two return panels extended
in opposing directions on each side of the parent run.
Notes: A single return panel (48" minimum length)
may be used with a Non-Rail Based Off-
Modular connector.The panel must extend at
least 22" from one side of the parent run.
Return panels must be no more than 30"
lower than the maximum height of the parent
panel run.
Method 2. - Refer to Illustration 2.A parent panel run
must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12 feet,
and must have at least two return panels totaling at
least 58% of the length of the parent run extended in
one direction.The minimum length of a return
panel(s) should total 60".

a straight line intended to divide space. It is usually longer
than the panels used to stabilize it.
Return Panels - Panels attached to a parent run for the
purpose of stabilizing it. Return panels may also have the

FOR ADEQUATE STABILITY of the Allsteel Stride
freestanding wall partitions, one of two methods of
stabilization must be used:
Method 1. - Refer to Illustration 1. A parent panel run must
be a minimum of 48” (1219.2 mm) , a maximum of 12 feet,
(3.657 meters) and must have a minimum of two return
panels (totaling 20% of the length of the parent run) extended
in opposing directions on each side of the parent run.
Note - A single return panel (48” (1219.2 mm) minimum
length) may be used with Non-Rail Based Off-Modular
connector. The panel must extend at least 22” (558.8
mm) from one side of the parent run.
Return panels must be no more than 30” (762 mm)
lower than the maximum height of the parent panel
run.
Method 2. - Refer to Illustration 2. A parent panel run must
be a minimum of 48” (1219.2 mm), a maximum of 12 feet,
(3.657 meters) and must have at least two return panels
totaling at least 58% of the length of the parent run extended

should total 60” (1524 mm).
Note - Return panels must be no more than 30” (762 mm)

STACKING TO DOOR HEIGHT
Refer to Illustration 5.To stack to the 87.5"
door height, some loss of hang slot
modularity will occur.
STACKING LIMITATIONS
Stack-on frames do not have a hang slot
at the bottom of the vertical tube.
Due to this absence, hanging
components that utilize multiple,
consecutive hang slots cannot span the
joint of a base frame and a stack-on
frame or the joint of two stack-on
frames.
If a 22.5" stack-on frame is used on top
of a 35", 50", or 65" base frame, or on
top of a 15" or 30" stack-on frame, a
shift will occur in the overall height of the
hang slots.This will result in a height
variation of adjacent hanging
components.
No hanging components can span the
joint of a base frame and a stack-on
frame or the joint of two stack-on frames
if a 22.5" stack-on frame is used on top
of a 35", 50", or 65" base frame or a 15"

Refer to Illustration 7.When a parent run is
supported with return panels on each side of
overhead storage units, a maximum of 5 units
can be suspended from each side of the parent
panel.
Refer to Illustration 6.In a panel run, only two
overhead storage cabinets or open storage
shelves are recommended per side, per panel.If
using a non-rail based off-modular panel
connector kit at one or both ends, do not
suspend more than one overhead storage unit
per side, per panel of the parent panel run.
When overhead storage units are suspended from
stack-on frames, the following guidelines must be
followed:
• Whenastorageunitissuspendedfroma
stack-on frame, all parent run panels and at least
the first panel of each return panel run must be
the same height as the supporting stack-on
panel, using base frames or a combination of
base frames and stack-on frames.
• Amaximumoftwooverheadstorageunits
should be suspended from each side of stack-on
frames on any given panel.

Step 1 - Place frames so that leveling blocks nest together.
To insure that the two panels line up, adjust the
leveling glides on the bottom of the panels.
Note: Refer to Detail 8A.Top View for alignment of
leveling blocks.
Step 2 - Install attachment screws through larger hole in one frame and into the smaller
mating hole of adjacent frame.Fully tighten screws.Start by installing attachment
screw through the top location in the frame and work down alternating left to right.

IMPORTANT: Tiles must be removed from stack-on
frame and base panel frame prior to
stack-on frame installation.
Step 3 - Install screws through base panel
and into attachment bracket (two
.75" screws if end of run condition,
one .75" and one 2.5" if inline
condition).
Step 4 - Position stack-on frame onto
attachment brackets.
Step 2 - Insert attachment brackets into base
panel (each side).Note bracket
orientation.
Step 1 - Remove top cap, top cap retainers, and
center clip block from base panel frame
and install on stack-on frame.Refer to
Illustration 34 for top cap retainer
removal.
IMPORTANT: .75" screws in Steps 3 and 5 must be
replaced by 2.5" screws for panel
connections if frames attached in an inline
condition (see Illustration 8 for guidelines).

Step 1 - Determine the configuration of the panels at the connector juncture and ensure that the connector block for
that juncture has the correct number of spacers.The side that has the outdent will always mate to a frame.
Any additional frames mating to the connector will need a spacer added to the connector block.

sure to place one at the highest position on the panel.Determine whether the left or right hole should
be used at each connector block position with the following rules:
- Where full data space is needed near a connector block, use the left hole at that connector position.
- 2 blocks: Use the left hole for both blocks
- 3 blocks: Use the left hole for two blocks and the right hole for one.
- 4 blocks: Use the left hole for two blocks and the right hole for two blocks.

Illustration 22. Low Profile Glass - Connector Block Pre-Assembly
When LPG is used at a connector block connection, it is necessary to
pre-assemble 1 or 2 LPG vertical rib components to the connector
blocks prior to LPG installation.
IMPORTANT - See Illustrations 24-27 for number of vertical rib
components to pre-assemble.Do not install more than
two vertical ribs to the subassembly.
Step 1 - Attach required number of connector blocks to
1 vertical rib using 1.5" screws provided (same as
above).
Step 2 - Attach a second vertical rib, creating an “L”
configuration (only if second vertical rib is required).

These instructions cover configurations with 1 LPG and 1 to 3 base panels at a connector block connection.
NOTE: If multiple base panels are already installed with connector blocks, connector blocks for LPG must be removed
prior to Step 1.
Step 1 - Remove vertical rib from one end and attach
connector blocks (see Illustration 22.)
Step 2 - Attach vertical rib subassembly to LPG reusing
screws from Step 1.
Step 4 - Secure other base
panels to connector
blocks.
Step 3 - Install LPG (see
