ACTIVAR FIRE-FX2 Installation Instructions

1. NOTE that trimless cabinets for drywall are designed to be installed after the first layer of drywall, but prior to the second layer. 2. Remove all hardware and glazing, unlock cabinet if lock provided. 3. Install a framed opening above, below and at both sides of cabinet opening at specified location. Wall opening width, height and depth must correspond with dimensions indicated in catalog or detail and submittal sheet. 4. Cabinet must be installed after the first layer of drywall has been put up. The cabinet wall flange will lay on top of that layer of dry- wall. 5. Use holes provided in cabinet tub for attaching to stud or substrate material. If wall configuration does not allow for that, then follow step 6 below; otherwise, skip to step 7. 6. [Drilling  Additional  Holes  in  Tub]  Drill  (2)  1/8”  (3.2  mm)  holes through tub on each side of cabinet. 7. Place cabinet in position and attach with Universal # 6 x 2-1/2”  (6.4 cm) self-drilling screws. Be sure not to over-tighten on either side, which could pull the cabinet out of position in the opening and result in an exposed gap between the cabinet frame and wall opening. 8. Start the screw without completely tightening; then start a screw on the opposite side of the tub. One all screws are started, tighten  each  screw  in  a  “criss-cross” pattern. A torque setting of 4-6 is recommended if using a screw gun. 9. Once screws are fully tightened, check cabinet for square and plumb. Adjust if necessary. All interior sides should be straight with no bowing or warping. 10. Check cabinet door assembly for freedom of movement. If it binds, shim as necessary to remove any racking of tub at attachments of stud. Cabinet will need to be removed temporarily in order to add shims. 11. Finish wall construction and install final top layer of drywall. The opening left in this layer of drywall for the FIRE-FX2™  cabinet  should  be  2”  less  in  width  and height  than  the  opening  originally  made  ins  in  step  3  above;;  or  1”  all  around.    The  top  layer  of  drywall  will  therefore  cover the cabinet wall flange, resulting in a “trimless”  appearance. 12. Remove protective plastic from acrylic or glass and install decal if intended for glass. (Panorama Models Glazing is Pre-Installed) 13. Align glazing on inside of door, holding in place while installing glass mounting clips on inside of door. Do not over-tighten. 14. Install handle and roller catch or SAF-T-LOK™  in  door.    Check  alarm  if  provided. © Activar Construction Products Group, Inc 2015 FIRE-FX2™ AND SAF-T-LOK™ ARE TRADEMARKS OF ACTIVAR, INC.

NOTE these trimless cabinets are designed to be installed in plaster/stucco wall conditions prior to the application of lath and plaster/stucco. 2. Remove all hardware and glazing, unlock cabinet if lock provid- ed. 3. Install a framed opening above, below and at both sides of cabi- net opening at specified location. Wall opening width, height and depth must correspond with dimensions indicated in catalog or detail and submittal sheet. 4. Use holes provided in cabinet tub for attaching to stud or sub- strate material. If wall configuration does not allow for that, then follow step 6 below; otherwise, skip to step 7. 5.

Cabinet will need to be removed temporarily in order to add shims. 10. Finish wall construction. Lay metal lath material over substrate and fasten securely. Ensure that lath extends over the wall flange at the perimeter of the Fire-FX2™  . 11. Apply  plaster  and/or  stucco  over  metal  lath  as  per  manufacturer’s  instructions  and  job  specifications.    Use  the  forward-projecting edge of the FIRE-FX2™  cabinet as a “plaster  stop”,  for  a  smooth  and  flush  final  installation 12. Remove protective plastic from acrylic or glass and install decal if intended for glass. (Panorama Models Glazing is Pre-Installed) 13. Align glazing on inside of door, holding in place while installing glass mounting clips on inside of door. Do not over-tighten. 14.
