Attaching the Fix Plates___
1. Make sure that the material and frame are both laying face down on a clean, dry and
non-abrasive surface.
2. Center the material inside the frame.
Please note the material will be noticeably smaller because stretching the material is required to
create a sufficient amount of tension for perfect material flatness.
3. Start in the center of the long horizontal edge and then alternate with the short sides as shown in
the diagram (fig.7). Numbers 1-8 indicate the recommended order that you should attach your fix
plates per section for an even tension distribution.

Please follow these instructions carefully to ensure proper maintenance and safety
with your EZ-Frame Screen
1. When hanging the screen up, please make sure that no other objects such as power switches,
outlets, furniture, ladders, windows, etc. occupy the space designated for your Fixed-Frame screen.
2. Regardless if the screen is hung on or installed into the wall, make sure that the proper mounting
anchors are used and that the weight is supported appropriately by a strong and structurally sound
surface just as any large and heavy picture frame should.
(Please consult a home improvement specialist for the best advice on installation)
3. Frame parts are made of high quality velour-surfaced aluminum and should be handled with care.
4. When not in use, cover over the screen with a furniture sheet to protect it from dirt, grime, paint or
any other impurities.
5. When cleaning, use a damp soft cloth with warm water to remove any marks on the frame or
screen surface.
6. Never attempt to use any solutions, chemicals or abrasive cleaners on the screen surface.
7. In order to avoid damaging the screen, avoid touching it directly with your fingers, tools or any
other sharp or abrasive objects.
8. Spare Parts should be placed out of reach of small children in accordance with household safety
guidelines.
