Part 01

⚒ BRACKET INSTALLATION

1. Clean the surface on which the copings will be fixed

Remove dust, debris and loose material. The surface must be clean and sound before any fixing.

2. Position the coping angle and mark the ends

Position the coping angle at the end. Mark the bracket positions along the parapet with a pencil.

3. Bracket positioning

Position the grooved brackets according to the markings. Check alignment and plumb before drilling.

4. Drilling brackets and wall

Drill through the bracket and wall simultaneously using a bit suited to the material (concrete, block, brick).

5. Insert rawlplugs and screw

Insert rawlplugs into the drilled holes. Secure the grooved brackets firmly with stainless steel screws.

💡 Practical info — Grooved bracket spacing

► Every 1.50 m for copings of 3 m in length

► Every 1.00 m for copings of 2 m or less

🏠 COPING INSTALLATION

6. Clipping the coping

Engage the coping onto the first bracket starting from one end. Clip firmly onto each grooved bracket until the click of engagement. Use a rubber mallet if necessary to avoid deforming the piece.

7. Installing a second coping

Position the second coping ensuring sufficient overlap with the first (minimum 30 mm recommended). Check alignment before clipping onto the next brackets.

8.1 Adding an external joint cover

Place the external joint cover over the junction between two copings to ensure waterproofing and conceal the expansion joint.

8.2 Internal joint cover (alternative)

Alternative to the external cover: inserted inside the profile for a more discreet appearance from outside.

9. Adding end caps

Finish the ends with closure end caps to prevent water infiltration and insect entry. Push together until fully engaged.

✅ Summary — 9 installation steps

1. Cleaning the parapet surface

2. Positioning the coping angle and marking the ends

3. Positioning the grooved brackets

4. Drilling the brackets and wall

5. Inserting rawlplugs and screwing brackets

6. Clipping the first coping

7. Installing subsequent copings with overlap

8. Fitting joint covers (external or internal)

9. Fitting end caps at the extremities
