Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Before installation, ensure the opening is prepared according to the project specifications. The supporting structure must be level and capable of bearing the load.
  2. Lifting: Use appropriate lifting equipment, as the lintel's weight can vary depending on its size. Always handle the lintel with care to prevent damage.
  3. Positioning: Carefully position the lintel over the opening, ensuring it is level and properly supported. The lintel should extend beyond the opening on each side, as specified in the project plans.
  4. Support: Use appropriate support methods, such as temporary props, during the installation process to ensure the lintel remains in place.
  5. Mortar: Apply a suitable mortar to the bearing surfaces to ensure a strong bond between the lintel and the supporting structure.
  6. Compatibility: This lintel is compatible with standard construction materials, including bricks, blocks, and mortar. Use complementary padstones if required.
  7. Care: Once installed, protect the lintel from excessive loads or impacts during the construction phase. Regular inspection for any signs of damage is recommended.
  8. Storage: Store the lintels in a dry place to prevent moisture damage before installation.
