8. Installation Instructions for VISTAMATIC® Glazed Secure Vision Panel
Wood Bead Fitting
Pre-Installation Fitting Check
1. The panel is the correct size to the order placed
2. When the panel is standing on the bottom edge (the handle is at the bottom) the panel functions smoothly. DO NOT
install if the handle mechanism is not functioning correctly.
3. The aperture is 1/8" overall larger than the panel as it should not be a tight fit.
Installation Instructions
1. Fit the hardwood fixing beads to one side of the aperture. This can be achieved by screwing or nailing whichever is
suitable for the project. Fit intumescent material if required for fire rated door.
2. Offer the panel into the aperture use packing wedges to make sure that panel is sitting square in the aperture.
3. Fit the hardwood fixing beads to the reverse side of the aperture as described in part 1. Fit the fixing beads top and
bottom first and check that the VISTAMATIC® Glazed Secure Vision Panel is functioning correctly and the fixing beads
are not too tight. It is VERY IMPORTANT that you DO NOT pinch the panel, as this will stop the VISTAMATIC® Glazed
Secure Vision Panel from functioning and cause scratching. When you are sure that all is correct fit the side fixing
beads in the same way.
Hollow Metal Frame Fitting
Pre-Installation Fitting Check
1. The panel is the correct size to the order placed
2. When the panel is standing on the bottom edge (the handle is at the bottom) the panel functions smoothly. DO NOT
install if the handle mechanism is not functioning correctly.
3. The aperture is 1" (if HMF is purchased from Vistamatic®) overall larger than the panel as it should not be a tight fit. If using
your own framing, the VISTAMATIC® Glazed Secure Vision Panel shoule be sized as the glass size to fit.
Installation Instructions
1. Fit the Hollow Metal Frame to one side of the aperture. This can be achieved by screwing or nailing whichever is
suitable for the project. Fit intumescent material if required for fire rated door.
2. Fit the fixing screws top and bottom first and check that the VISTAMATIC® Glazed Secure Vision Panel is functioning
correctly and the fixing beads are not too tight. It is VERY IMPORTANT that you DO NOT pinch the panel, as this will
stop the VISTAMATIC® Glazed Secure Vision Panel from functioning and cause scratching. When you are sure that all
is correct fit the side fixing beads in the same way.
