Instructions on secure transportation
Transport blocks
To prevent damage to installed locks during transport of the door, transport blocks must be inserted between the sash and the frame, for fastening the airgap. In the event that PVC-U, aluminium, or timber doors have a euro groove / euro rebate, an all-round airgap of 11 to 12 mm should be available. This is 4 mm in the case of timber doors with a 4 mm airgap. These transport blocks may only be removed immediately before the door assembly.
System-compatible transport protection may be available from the profile manufacturers (PVC-U) or accessory retailer (timber).
