4. Fabrication

4.1 Carpet fabricationFor PVC and aluminium a flat tooth saw blade Ø300 mm, n=3000 1/min is recommended for cutting to length.

4.2 Fabricate the aluminium grip sectionThe aluminium grip section must be notched for metallic-line 20, metallic-line 25 and E23 translucent tambour doors.Then insert the grip section.

Stick the carpet together

E23 + metallic-line 25Fixing with adhesive tape

metallic-line 20Fixing with adhesive tape. The adhesive tape must be pushed into the base with a wooden block.

Note: When using a GRL adhesive, no notching is required.

In the case of E23 translucent, weld the connections between the tambour door slats in the track area with a soldering iron. Adhesive tape not required..

Male and female connector are each welded on the face with a soldering iron. When doing this, the welding point must not overlap the respective slat ends.

5. Installation into the cabinet

In the case of a glued laminated carcass, insert the tambour door carpets at the same time as gluing. Alternatively, the carcass can be spread using a batten. Batten approx. 10 mm longer than the internal cabinet height. Pad the ends if necessary.

When using cabinet connectors, no spreading is required. If necessary, the centre panel must be fitted with cabinet connectors that go all the way through or are accessible from the inside.

6. Assembly procedure

1. Stick track or track + spiral together.2. Push in the tracks, screw in the spirals if required (can take place prior to assembly or gluing) 3. Fit the pelmet (push in, or screw in)4. Open or spread the cabinet5. Insert the tambour door carpet (together with the grip section)6. Close the cabinet connector, or remove batten7. Check the tambour door to ensure that it moves freely.

7. Centre stop

Centre stops are used in 2-door cabinets. The corresponding locating holes are to be positioned as follows:

8. Maintenance and care

The tambour door is almost maintenance-free in normal operation. The tracks should however be checked for dirt from time to time, and where necessary should be sprayed with lubricant spray in order to maintain the running properties in the long-term.Household cleaning agents without scouring additives or abrasive solvents can be used to maintain the surfaces of the tambour doors.
