CLEANING &
MAINTENANCE
OF COMPACT
LAMINATE
Compact laminate is engineered to last for many years.
We provide a 10 year guarantee on panel integrity.
It is resistant to everyday wear and tear but needs some
attention for harsh conditions and staining.
Never use any of the following on
Compact Laminate:
•Abrasive cleaners such as Jif Cream Cleanser, Ajax (powder
or liquid), Chemco, Brasso, Mr. Muscle oven cleaner,
Scrub free.
•Neat Janola or other equivalent brands of bleaches.
•Scourer pads, Wire wool or Sandpaper.
•Any strong mineral acid such as sulphuric acid, Battery acid,
hydrochloric acid, nitric acid or phosphoric acid.
•Any product containing strong mineral acids such as
commercial toilet cleaners, grout removers, descalants,
rust removers, etc.
•Care must be taken where cleaning agents or solvents are
highly acidic or alkaline as these may permanently damage
the surface.
Other Tips:
•In challenging environments, the use of CRC or equivalent
on hinges and indicator bolts is recommended as required.
• Anoccasionalre-nishoftheexposededgeswithan
“off the shelf” wood-polish will rejuvenate the original
polished seen edges.

NOTES
•When screwing into compact you must
pre-drill.
•Use low setting on your drills when
screw fixing into Compact Laminate.
Compact Laminate can break screws or
damage the head if your drill is
too powerful.
•Don’t use hammer drills when installing into
Compact Laminate.
•Compact Laminate and Aluminium can
damage if not stored or treated properly
– take care when you are moving sheets.
Larger sheets require 2-man lift.
•The system will be packed so division panels
are at the top and the doors are
at the bottom.
•Use Diamond tip drill bits for drilling
into tiles.
•Oversize Fascias – rivet infill in the middle
(of the 2 other rivets on the other side)
of the pedestal at the opposite side to
ensure that the infill can’t be moved.
Sit in place and ensure that all the doors are
perfect before final rivet. Therefore you can
adjust. Ensure plumb both ways.

From the plans mark Datum on relevant walls.
Ensure that the lowest point in the floor is used for
datum line otherwise posts could be too long,
the system could be on an angle, or the Headrail
height could be too low.
Note: on our proprietary system the Datum
is normally 1960mm.
RETURN VERSION
From the plans mark the distance from the back wall
to the front of the cubicles.
From the plans mark the division centers on the
back wall.
a. Check location of toilets and ensure
centered (these are sometimes fitted
different to the plans).
Fix back U-Channels (1748mm) centered on your
marks, 52mm below the Datum line.
a. The U-Channels are predrilled.
Ensure screws go into wall frame.
Use (A) 8GA x 32 screws (with a (F) plastic
anchor if required).
Leave fixing of ‘Return Wall’ and ‘Side ½ Stiles’
until after ‘Headrail’ in step’.
Hold Headrail in position to find where ‘side and
return (1795mm)’ ½ Stiles go.
Balance the difference (if any) between both ‘side
½ Stile’ and ‘return ½ Stile’ and mark centers to
ensure perfect mitre cut.
Note: This adjustment allows for walls that are not
at right angles and Headrails are often supplied
oversize to allow you more adjustment if required.
Adjust ends so
that the corner
mitre is perfectly
square with
the walls.

c. Click the ½ Stiles on to the brackets
with the top flush with the Datum-line.
d. Finish fixing ½ Stile through marked holes.
Use (C) 8GA x 50 screws.
Note: If ½ Stiles have hinges, hold the ½ Stile in
place, at Datum, and mark on wall the centers
of the hinges.
Attach brackets at marks to wall, then attach
½ Stile through the center hinge holes, 3 per Stile.
Screw fix ½ Stile through
centre hole in bracket.
Clip ½ Stile in place.
Place MS Polymer adhesive along the ½ Stile back
and the side as shown. Only on the Return ½ Stile
at this stage.
Keep
adhesive
away from
extrusion
edges.

Step 7
Place return panel on blocks, flush with the bottom
of the ½ Stile. Screw fix in place, ensuring you leave
a 2-3mm gap for the Aluminium bead to slot in.
Use (1) 10GA x 25 screws.
a. Plumb and Fix in place at ½ Stile.
Counter sink screws through panel into
½ Stile 30mm and 600mm from the top and
the same from the bottom.
b. Clip ½ Stile bead in place.
Use Silicone to hold in place.
c. Then fix corner channel to division panel
with 4 rivets.
Use 3.5mm drill bit with (D) Stainless
Steel Pop Rivets 30mm and 600mm from
the top and the same from the bottom.
RETURN VERSION
Insert end Fascia in place with rounded edge at top
and screw fix using 1¼” countersunk screws.
Ensure that you leave a gap of 2-3mm behind the
screen for the aluminium bead to slot in to.
Quickly, before the Polymer dries, clip
the corner bead in place.

Mark a ‘front face’ chalk line on the floor.
a. Chalk line from the center of the ‘side wall’
½ Stile to the center if the corner channel.
b. Place division panels into rear U-Channels
with 4x2 blocks underneath to make them
level (wedges will be required).
c. Adjust division panels so they are 10mm
from the chalk line and aligned with the top
of the U-Channel then fix.
Rivet through one side use 3.5mm drill bit
with (D) Stainless Steel Pop Rivets.
Note: Sometimes the back wall is not straight.
This can be ok as you can either trim the division
panels as required, or adjust the front face.
Just ensure you remark the chalk line and that it’s
straight, fits and looks good.
From the plans mark the floor Angle Brackets
centers on the chalk line.
Note: Make sure to leave enough pencil mark along
the chalk line to be seen from under the Full-Stile
footprint – this is so you can ensure panels will
be centered.
Drill holes for the floor Angle Brackets.
Use 5mm masonry drill bit in concrete
floor and 3.5mm drill bit in wood floor or
a diamond drill bit for Tiles.
Place (F) plastic anchor in hole.
Secure Angle Bracket with the back facing
AWAY FROM THE DOOR, using (A)
8GA x 32 screws.
Note: If the wall, with a ½ Stile, that has a door
attached, is not straight – there is no way to adjust
it to be perfect.
In order to plumb system, place Headrail in position
and using the predrilled holes in the head rail, use
the laser level to locate the Full-Stiles Angle Bracket
locations. This will mean the rest will be perfect.
