Glasdon ECLIPSE User manual

1. Firstly establish the location your Eclipse canopy
is to be sited. To install your canopy we
recommend installing from the upper left fixing
key hole. From the ground measure approximately
2330mm upwards on the wall and mark the centre
using a pencil/scriber (diagram A).
2. Using a 12mm masonry drill bit and a hammer drill,
drill the marked hole to a depth of 110mm (diagram B).
3. Remove the washer from one of the anchors and
hammer the anchor into the drilled hole making sure it
is fully inserted (diagram C). Tighten the anchor using a
17mm socket until it is firmly secure. Once secure, then
unscrew the bolt until it is around 30mm proud of the
wall (diagram D) for the canopy to be hooked onto.

4. Lift the canopy up and position the top left key hole slot on the protruding
bolt. Pivot the canopy up at the opposite side ensuring the canopy is level
with the mortar lines or by using a spirit level. (diagram E).
5. Mark the remaining 3 hole
centres of your canopy using a
pencil or scriber (diagram F). The
hole positions are indicated by the
arrows above and below the fixing
slots located in the recesses in the
rear of the canopy. Carefully
remove the canopy from the bolt
and place it down on the floor.

The canopy is supplied with wall fixings suitable for solid walls of adequate strength. Although most solid
and cavity walls can typically support the canopies, they should be assessed for adequate strength and
stability by a suitably qualified person. There are a number of other anchors and resin fixings that are
probably suitable for your particular site conditions, and the appropriate fixing type should be chosen.

6. Repeat step 2 with the remaining marked holes.
7. Insert the three remaining anchors into the pre-drilled holes and tighten using a 17mm socket.
When tightened fully unscrew all four bolts so only the anchors are left inside the wall.
8. A self-adhesive foam strip is supplied to provide a seal between canopies and/or the wall. Before
using the foam strip firstly clean the recess that runs around the top edge of both sides and the rear of
the canopy, ensuring it is free from dirt/grease. For single unit installations, adhere the foam strip to the
recess at the rear of the unit, cut to the desired length and discard the excess. Where multiple units are
to be sited side by side, the foam strip should be adhered in one piece to the rear and all adjoining
sides of the canopies. NOTE: both abutting sides of the canopies should be fitted with foam strip
providing a double layer for an improved seal.

NOTE: WHEN INSTALLING CANOPIES SIDE-
BY-SIDE, REPEAT THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR EACH ADDITIONAL CANOPY.
HOWEVER CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO
MAKE SURE THE CANOPIES ARE
POSITIONED SO THEY ARE AS CLOSE AS
POSSIBLE TO EACH OTHER AND
GENERALLY IN LINE SO THE FOAM STRIP IS
SUFFICIENTLY COMPRESSED TO SEAL.
11. Once secure, the security cover caps
should be pushed into the cover rings.
12. To complete the installation use the
remaining hole plugs and insert into the
unused fixing holes.
9. With all the anchors now inserted into the
wall, place each bolt through a cover ring and
a 50mm washer.
10. Using correct lifting procedures and
equipment, lift the canopy up onto the wall
to align the four fixing slots with the anchor
positions. Carefully re-insert the bolts
through the fixing slots so as to not disturb
the anchor or cross thread the bolt. Tighten
the bolts using a 17mm socket, adjusting
the canopy to level in the process

1. Place one of the posts onto a raised surface
around 100mm from the floor. Preferably a trolley
so the unit is easy to manoeuvre when assembled.
2. Position the canopy on its side and place
the post into the recess on the back of the unit.
Place a bolt through a cover ring and then
through a 50mm washer and keep to hand.
3. Place a bolt through a cover ring and then
through a 50mm washer. Insert the assembled
bolt through the hole in the canopy until it
protrudes through the post at the back.
4. Place a 50mm washer and a cover cap
over the bolt and secure with a nyloc nut.
5. Using 17mm sockets tighten the bolt until the
canopy is securely fastened to the post.
6. Repeat steps 3,4 & 5 for the second fixing
hole until the post is securely fastened.

10. Using correct lifting techniques pivot the
canopy up at one end where it is to be sited.
11. Once the canopy is upright make
sure the posts are perpendicular with
the ground and adjust if necessary.
NOTE:
LIFTING AIDS SHOULD BE USED TO LIFT THE CANOPY AND POSTS WHERE POSSIBLE.
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO POSITION A SPLINT/NOGGIN BETWEEN THE TWO MOUNTING POSTS
TO KEEP THE POSTS RIGID WHEN PIVOTING THE UNIT UPWARD.

2. Position the first canopy on its side
on a raised platform and place the post
into the recess on the back of the unit.
1. Firstly apply the foam strip to the rear of each
canopy inside the shallow recess as marked above.

3. Place a bolt through a cover ring and then through a 50mm washer and keep to hand.
4. Position the second canopy back-to-back so the post is sandwiched inside the recesses.
5. Push the bolt through the first fixing hole and the post until it protrudes through both canopies.
Insert a 50mm washer and a cover cap over the bolt and secure with a nyloc nut. Tighten the bolt
using a 17mm socket.
6. Repeat steps 3 & 4 for the second fixing
hole to secure the first post.
7. Using correct lifting techniques slide the
second post into the recess and align the holes.
8. Repeat steps 3, 4 & 5 on the remaining fixing

drilled holes and gently hammer them down
until they are flush with ground level.

5. Using a 17mm socket loosely tighten all
four bolts on each base plate before
tightening them fully.
6. Once all bolts are fully tightened, firmly
press the tamper-proof caps onto the bolt
heads to complete the installation.
1. Firstly establish the location your Eclipse
canopy is to be sited. Mark the 8 fixing holes
in the base plate using a pencil or a scriber.
2. Remove the canopy from the marked holes
and drill them using a 16mm masonry drill bit
to a depth of around 80mm. Remove debris
and dust from inside and around the holes.

ONCE THE CANOPY HAS BEEN PIVOTED UPRIGHT CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THE
POSTS ARE HORIZONTALLY LEVEL AND SECURE IN THE HOLES
ASSEMBLE THE CANOPY/ CANOPIES TO THE CONCRETE IN POSTS IN THE SAME MANNER AS
INSTRUCTED ON PAGES 3, 4 & 5 OF THIS MANUAL
3. Fill the holes with around 50mm of gravel
or similar material, then position the canopy
into the holes.
2. Insert the cross bar through the hole in
the bottom of each of the posts, these will
anchor the posts when concreted.
4. Ensure the canopies are horizontally
level and the posts are perpendicular to
ground level. To ensure the canopies stay
level it is recommended that chocks or a
stabilising frame is used to keep the posts
secure within the hole prior to concreting.

5. Once secure pour concrete into the hole
until flush with ground level. Allow concrete
to harden fully to complete your installation.
