| HOW TO INSTALL
OUR ALUMINIUM POLE INTERIOR |
|
FITTING THE POLE INTERIOR
Firstly, mark the position
of the of the pole height and width spacing. The height
of the connection of pole to wall is 2182mm (assuming
that the overall pole height is 2200mm). The spacing
will depend on the interior configuration.
Poles should start and finish 25mm in from the wall(s)
or end panel which should allow for a drawer to pull
out clear of any side frame.
The centre of the first pole is located 25mm+17.5mm
from the wall/ end panel. To calculate the positions
of the rest of the poles, simply add 53mm to each shelf
or drawer unit width or 47mm to a rail width if it is
a rail only section. |

Standard shelf and
interior unit widths are 400mm, 600mm, and 800mm. However,
shelves can be used in a variable width up to around
approximately 1200mm,
Poles are supplied fully assembled and a bag containing
a connection disc, wall plug, fixing screw, Allen key
and grub screws is taped to the pole. At the pre- determined
points, drill and plug the wall and screw on the pole
connection discs (See fig 2).
Locate the short leg of the pole assembly on to the
connection disc and do up the grub screws with the allen
key provided. The final height/level of the poles can
be set by raising/lowering the adjustable feet.
Once the poles are in place, simply decide the position
of shelves/units and rails, and fit shelf/rail connecting
blocks and shelf/unit supports to the poles see (fig
3). Position and secure shelves and units and cut to
size and fit rails (fig 4). The hanging rails are supplied
oversize, but are easily cut with a hacksaw.

A full width top
shelf can be rested on and connected to the top of the
poles (fixings not supplied).
Extra wall to pole legs are available to make the pole
uprights more rigid, if required.
We recommend that a small metal angle bracket is used
under a drawer unit to connect the unit to the wall
for extra rigidity. The rigidity can also be achieved
by using extra wall to pole legs in the area close to
the unit, however, this will add to the cost!

| Our standard pole
to wall leg depth is 223mm which, when used with our
standard shelf depth of 458mm will leave an 11.5mm gap
between the back of the shelf and the wall. On the same
basis, the hanging rail centre will be 241mm from the
back wall. |

Use a lever such
as the allen key supplied, to raise or lower the stud
in to the ceiling see (floor to ceiling poles only)
(fig 5).
When designing your own pole interior layout, ensure
that drawer units are not placed behind door over laps
on 2 or 3 door sliding systems this also applies to
pull-out tie & belt racks etc.
Where the floor to ceiling pole is used, the standard
pole height overall is 2500mm. The pole can be re-sized
as required using a medium tooth hacksaw.
The connection to the ceiling is by way of a pointed,
threaded stud that can be wound up in to the ceiling
for a firm fixing. It is advisable not to use this pole
type on old, poorly adhered lath & plaster ceilings.

| As a general tip,
try to compartmentalise the interior and keep the pole
uprights on or close to the door overlap points (where
possible) |
