To prevent permanent damage to the screen material, be sure your hands are clean for the next step.
Step 5. Carefully unroll the screen material face-down on, top of the assembled frame, from one side of the frame to the
other side as shown below.
Step 6. Insert the four horizontal and two vertical Tension Rods (I)into the corresponding sides of the screen material, while
keeping the material laying flat. Careful not to snag on the holes at the edge of the material during this process; forcing
the rods may damage the screen material.
Step 7. Insert the Springs (B)into the grooves of the frame. Line them up with the corresponding holes in the materials
edge. Be sure the shorter hook on each spring is placed in the frame's groove, while the longer hook attaches to the
material. For the correct amount of springs to place into the frame, please refer to the table listed below.
Step 8. With one end of the spring placed inside the groove of the frame, hook the Spring (B)through the hole located
on the screen material’s outer edge. Be sure to hook the Springs (B) onto the Tension Rod (I) to avoid damage to the
screen material. Use the Pull Hook (E)when necessary. Attach the four corners and center horizontal sections of the
material (1).

Step 9. Two people are suggested for this step. Place the Center Support Bar (J) into the top groove on the back of the
frame (not the one where the spring inserts) at the approximate center point of the frame. Carefully pull the bottom
horizontal frame outward and place the Center Support Bar (J) at the approximate center point of the frame. Carefully
release the frame once the bar is centered. (See illustrations below for details.)
Step 10. After the Center Support Bar (J) secure, connect the center of the vertical portions of the material (2). Be sure to
hook the Springs (B) onto the Tension Rod (I) to avoid damage to the screen material. Next, return to the vertical sides,
securing the remainder of the springs (3). Lastly, secure the remaining springs of the horizontal sides of the screen (4).

Installation
Step 11. Measure the overall length and height of the frame and drill holes for the Brackets (F). Line up the wall brackets
with the drilled holes on the installation location and screw them in using a Phillips screwdriver. If not installing into a

brackets are leveled.
Step 12. Position the fixed frame screen onto the wall Brackets (F) as shown below and push down at the center of the top
of the frame to secure.

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.

4. Frame parts are made of high quality velour-surfaced aluminum and should be handled with care.
