Installation Procedure

1. Ensure the polycarbonate sheet is clean and free from debris. 2. Carefully position the sheet at the desired location, aligning with mounting points or existing structures. 3. Secure the sheet using appropriate fasteners (e.g., screws with washers designed for plastic) ensuring not to overtighten, which can cause stress fractures.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to cracking or spiderwebbing.Use appropriate washers and tighten fasteners only until snug, allowing for slight thermal expansion and contraction.
Using standard drill bits without proper technique, resulting in rough holes.Employ a sharp drill bit specifically designed for plastics or use a standard bit at a slower speed with a brad point to prevent chipping.
