System Components
Do not step directly on the sheets between the purlins!
When installing SUNGLAZE or doing maintenance work,
always consider the sheet to be unt to support a person’s
weight. Always use stepping ladders or crawling boards,
supported by minimum three roof structural elements,
when working on a glazed roof of any kind.

Create a spacer bar as a jig to easily measure the distance between aluminum proles during

The spacer bar should be 565mm long.
Make sure the edges are perfectly square cut.

Use a drop saw or angle grinder to cut each prole component to the exact length required.
• Make sure your cuts are straight; exactly perpendicular to the prole.
• Smooth rough edges with a metal le as needed.
Measure and cut all aluminum Bottom, Middle and Top Caps to correct length if required.
The proles should be at least 1cm longer than the panels.
NOTE: The aluminum proles are already in the required length to suit the supplied sheets length.
Measure twice, cut once!
Always orient the cut edge of each
aluminum prole toward the top of the roof.

Measuring & Cutting Aluminum Proles
Drilling Holes in the Proles
56
Before drilling holes, place the Bottom & Edge Bottom Glazing Bars over a strip
of wood. This will protect the end of the drill bit as it penetrates the proles.
• Measure, mark and pre-drill 5mm screw holes in each Bottom Glazing Bar.
• Follow the hole spacing guidelines below for rafter or purlin installation to match your roof support
structure.
• Make sure all holes are centred along the notch in the middle of each Bottom Glazing Bar
Here’s how to measure the proper Prole length:
• ADD – Roof overhang (50mm minimum to 100mm maximum) (A)
• PLUS – Length of roof run (B)
• EQUALS – Total length of each Bottom, Middle and Top Cap.

• Flush End Caps are to be xed using the supplied 10g x 25 mm Self Drilling Screws to the Bottom
& Edge Bottom Glazing Bars at the end which will be located at the top of the roof closest to the
building or home before the Glazing Bars are xed to the structure. (Note the Standard & Edge Cap
will be xed at the spouting end of the roof).
• Out of the box, the Roof Panels and Prole parts are
already cut to the proper size to t together.
• If cutting Roof Panels is required, here’s how to measure
the proper Roof Panel length:
• A – Length of aluminum Prole
• B – MINUS 3mm for every 1.0m of aluminum Prole
• EQUALS – Total length of each Roof Panel
• For example, if your aluminum Prole is 4 meters long, then your Roof Panel will be 3.988m long.

• After two adjacent Roof Panels are in place, install a Middle Glazing Bar over the Bottom Glazing Bar
between them. This will secure down two adjacent Roof Panel edges.
• Fasten the Middle Glazing Bar at 300 mm centres using the 12g x 20mm xings.
• Start fastening the Middle Glazing Bar at the bottom of the roof line, and work toward the top.
• Use adjustable impact driver or cordless drill and avoid over tightening so the screw will not strip the
threads out.
• Add another Middle Glazing Bar in between every two new panels.
