Safety Information
Warning
Before beginning installation, make sure that the wall and floor backing are adequate to support the mounting of the toilet
compartment units.
Partitions are extremely heavy and may require more than one person to position and install.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in personal injury and/or property damage and will void the warranty.
Caution
Personal protective equipment (PPE) is required during the installation and maintenance of this product.
Notice
To prevent warping, always lay the material flat. Do not lean the material against the wall or stack unevenly.
Make sure all floors and walls are clean and smooth. Remove loose impediments, such as protruding nails and other debris which
could affect installation.
To minimize break-out, always use a support block when drilling through the material.
Carefully remove components from skid, do not drag.
Important
Review your partition layout drawings and verify the number of stalls and components before beginning installation.
Read this installation manual completely to ensure proper installation, then file it with the owner or maintenance department.
This installation manual provides instruction for the assembly of normal partition configurations and standard components.
Non-standard configurations or components including but not limited to curved or angled walls, partial walls, oversized panels, or
modified hardware are not covered in this manual. Compliance and conformity to local codes and ordinances is the responsibility
of the installer.
Separate parts from packaging and make sure all parts are accounted for before discarding packaging material. If any parts are
missing, do not begin installation until you obtain the missing parts.

Bradley • AD3-FLOAT_Install Rev. A 12/10/2021
When installing the partition components, consult the
applicable Bradley Partition submittal drawing specific to this
job for compartment layout dimensions.
If the centerline dimensions are not specified, the
cubicle is divided equally according to the dimensions
for the front side.
1Marking & Installing U-Brackets
From the accompanying production drawing, use the
centerline plus overall dimensions and the dimensions
of the front wall. Transfer these measurements to the
floor and appropriate walls.
A
Be aware of your surroundings and avoid obstructions.
Number the wall U-brackets while laying out the stalls.
Use the laser level to locate the drill points for each
U-bracket. Mark and then drill the locations.
B
Using the 4D laser level, locate the centerline of each
U-bracket. Measure up from the floor 100 mm and
mark the bottom of the first U-bracket. Use the first
bracket base location as a guide to locate and mark the
remaining bracket locations using the laser level.
C
Mark the drill holes for the wall connection U-brackets.
Hold the numbered brackets at these locations, line up
the U-bracket pre-drilled holes at laser centerline, and
mark the screw hole locations on the wall. Be sure to
keep the numbered brackets straight.
E
D
Drill the marked holes using an 8 mm drill bit, and
then mount the U-brackets using 8 mm x 51 mm
plastic anchors and 5.5 mm x 60 mm countersunk
screws with 6.4 mm washers.
F
The dimensions from the floor for the remaining
U-brackets may vary depending on any slope in the
floor.

2Making Notches (if necessary)
This step may not be necessary, depending on the layout.
Determine whether the shelf is at a right angle.
If several notches are required, align the height of the
U-brackets using a laser level.
Measure the height of the shelf on the back wall and
subtract the specified ground clearance at that location
from this dimension.
A
Shorten the mitered pre-cut U-bracket to the correct
size. Place the U-bracket with the miter end up,
making sure that it is flush with the top of the shelf.
B
Adjust the remaining piece of the long U-bracket to the
height of the system, and then attach the U-bracket,
setting it perpendicular to the wall.
C
Transfer the notch dimension with the addition of
0.20" clearance to the partition panel, and then use a
circular saw to make the notch.
E
Adjust the short miter U-bracket, and then attach it to
the shelf.

3Installing U-Bracket on Middle Pilasters
Verify the correct pilasters are selected by matching
the label on the pilasters with what is indicated on the
submittal drawings.
Pay close attention to the latch side versus hinge side,
in addition to the in-swing or out-swing.
Determine the centerline of the pilaster and then draw
a full-length line along the pilaster. There may be a
custom dimension indicated on the submittal drawing.
Place the U-bracket on the interior pilaster flush with
the bottom, and then mark the drill holes.
A
B
Using a 4.2 mm drill bit, drill the holes through the
surface of the first panel only, and then attach the
U-bracket using 5.5 mm x 25 mm pan head screws.
Make sure the lower hole catches part of the interior
aluminum frame at the bottom edge of the pilaster.

4Mounting Middle Pilaster to Partition Panel
Position the partition panel on its rear edge.
A
Install the middle pilaster with profile in the front
groove of the partition panel.
C
Using the T-connector as a template, mark the drill
holes on the bottom edge of the middle pilaster.
D
Using a 4.2 mm drill bit, pre-drill the marked holes.
E
Secure the T-connector to the partition panel
and middle pilaster using three 4.8 mm x 50 mm
countersunk screws.
F
Put silicone on the interior of the middle pilaster.
B
Be sure to use padding to protect the edge of the
partition panel when placing it on its edge.
When securing the T-connector, be sure the middle
pilaster is at an exact 90° angle to the partition panel.

Mark the drill holes for the top brackets. Place the
brackets flush with the lower edge of the retaining
block.
G
Using a 4.2 mm drill bit, pre-drill holes through the first
panel only.
H
Tightly secure the heavy brackets (105/60/30/8) using
4.8 x 32 mm countersunk screws.
I
Place the upper retaining heavy block against the
brackets and push onto the upper edge of the
middle panel, and then secure the block using a
4.8 mm x 70 mm countersunk screw.
J
L-bracket holes are offset so the screws do not
interfere with each other.
