Secure the post onto the base plate. Use the included Allen key to ghten both sides of the
post into the base. If the post will go up against a wall, make sure to use a small base plate.
Refer to page 12 for the installaon of an end panel.

LOWER STRETCHER
UPPER STRETCHER
Before connuing and building wall secons, please read the following instrucons
thoroughly. It’s important to start building walls at the highest oor point, and you must
insert and secure all upper and lower stretchers before pung in any panels. Once the rst
2 posts are assembled, place them where you want to assemble the rst wall secon. Begin
wall assembly with the lower stretcher.
For stability, have one person hold the post while the stretchers are being installed. To
install the lower stretcher, insert one side into one post and then the other side into the
next post. Push down unl it clicks. Make sure it’s level and seated correctly.

4.
Use a level to check alignment and connecon of the stretchers, making sure all stretchers
are fully seated and secure before installing any panels. Base plates can be adjusted to
level if necessary.
If you’re creang a corner with your panels, you will need to change the posion of the side
caps to ensure that you can seat and secure your stretchers. For an easier me moving the
frame before compleon, ensure the whole wall frame for the enre conguraon is built
and leveled before installing panels.

All panels should be installed with one person on each side of the wall. For walls with
upper and lower panels, align the channel on the lower panel with the lower stretcher and
then push the panel in unl it clicks in place. We recommend pung all lower panels in rst
before moving to upper panels.

To install the upper panel, ensure there is one person on each side of the panel. Similar to
the lower panel, align the boom channel of the upper panel with the lower panel and push
in while pressing the top spring unl it latches in.
Once the panel has securely clicked into the boom of the upper stretcher, push up on the
draw latches to lock the connecon in place. If the upper panel isn’t ng properly or the
draw latches aren’t locking in place, check the seang and alignment of both the stretchers
and the panels.

Once all panels are installed, install the stretcher covers on both sides of the upper and
lower stretchers. Align the cover with the stretcher and slide down to clip in place.

Remove the side caps at the boom of the post. Push the post brace in and up to lock on
both sides of the post. Adjust foot height to level. The post brace can be used against a
wall in conjuncon with a wall anchor for addional stability (see page 39 for anchoring
instrucons). Check level and connecon of stretchers, making sure all stretchers are
fully seated and secure before installing any panels. Base plates can be adjusted to level if
necessary. For an easier me moving the frame before compleon, ensure the whole wall

For kits designed to have a doorway with no door, install the small panel next to where the
doorway will be. Install the upper stretcher between the doorway posts, and add the door
stretcher cover on the door stretcher.
Users with no door are now nished with their installaon.
For kits with a door to install, you will need to install the frame into the doorway. The
door and frame ship aached but should be installed separately. Remove the door before
mounng the frame. With the door and frame resng on the oor, swing the door open and
then pull the door up and o the hinges.

Install the frame into the wall system by aligning the door frame with the post. Insert into
one post and then the other. Push down on the stretcher and then push up on the draw
latches to secure the frame in place. Once installed, check the level and spacing of the door
frame. Adjust the base plate on each side to ensure the frame is level.
To reaach the door, align the door rst with the top pin, then with the lower pin. Slide the
door onto the brackets. Install the door at a 90-degree angle from the wall system to avoid
pinching hands in the frame.

To install the door handle, use the 3-piece handle plates included. You can also use any
standard door handle and follow the manufacturer’s installaon instrucons. To use the
included handle, pull the door lock mechanism to full length before inserng into the lock
cutout shown in Step 5A. Screw in the lock mechanism with the included screws. Do not
over ghten. Push the handle pieces onto each side of the door exterior. Use a screwdriver
to secure screws on each side. Tighten the lock plate screws.

NOTE: Four-way cradles need to be installed when a short stability rail is used, at the ends
of a long stability rail, and any points of intersecon. Two-way cradles are only used in the
center of the long stability rails.
Insert the four-way cradle into the post, aligning the set screw with an open and accessible
face. Insert the provided Allen key through the post and into the set screw, then turn the
Allen key counter-clockwise to back the set screw out and secure the cradle. Repeat for all
open sides.
Insert the two-way cradle into the top side of the post, aligning the set screw with an open
and accesssible face. Insert the provided Allen key through the post and into the set screw,
then turn the Allen key counter-clockwise to back the set screw out and secure the cradle.
Repeat for all open sides.

cradle, and insert the stability rail.
With the rail in place, insert the draw latch through the slot on the four-way cradle. Pull
the draw latch back to tension the rail to the four-way cradle. The two-way cradle will snap
around the stability rail.
