Safety instructions

DANGER
Danger to life when fitting the steel frame
The steel frame and door can fall over during fitting and may cause injuries to persons.
Secure the steel frame and the door against falling over before and during fitting.

Scope of delivery

See Figure A
The double-shell steel profile frame with or without wall width adjustment is made for retrofitting in brickwork or partition walls.
The double-shell steel profile frame is suitable for rebated or flush door leaves.

The steel profile frame according to DIN 18111 consists of:

hot-galvanized sheet steel, 1.5 mm or 2.0 mm
marked at 1000 mm from FFL
without floor recess and seal
with welded trapezoidal anchors in the rebate shell
and holding clips in the rebate counter shell.

Screw fitting in the base of the groove is made with Torx drilling screws T 20 / self-tapping screws 3.5 × 38 mm with cross recessed head. The steel profile frame is prepared for on-site door hinges from series VS 8900 VN/160 3D, VX 3D or concealed hinges.

For plug-in / screw-in mitred area:

Screws with hexagon socket 6 × 12 (4 × )

Not included in the scope of delivery:

Door hinges
Timber door leaf
2C fitting foam, art. no: 588133
Fitting set A6, art. no: 588210
Fitting set B6, art. no: 588211

Fitter qualification
Fitting and maintenance must be performed by a competent specialist based on the instructions.

Fitting

For additional notes and information, refer to the TTZ document “Guidelines for fitting steel frames” online at:

http://www.hoermann-docs.com/208092

Check the delivered parts for completeness prior to fitting the frame. Compare the profile geometry, as well as the width and height with the specifications of the building owner (metre line). If necessary, align the steel frame at right angles, e.g. by carefully tilting the right or left side part (see Figure 3.1).
Adjust for even spacing between the frame overlaps and the walls on each side.
To observe the frame hold dimension and reveal dimension, widen the steel frame with with a light preload (see Figure 3.5).
To ensure simple and correct fitting, carefully follow the work steps in the illustrated section.
Use fastenings and fittings or plugs / screws recommended for the conditions on site.
If necessary, fix the frame at all prepared fixing points.
Make sure that the partition walls and partition wall profiles can withstand the loads during use. Consider the load values of the doors.
Observe the centre line and edge spacing for the plugs required for the wall type. Follow the fitting information and processing guidelines of the plug manufacturer.
Backfill the fixing points so they are resistant to pressure and torsion with suitable materials such as hardwood or sheet metal. This allows you to compensate for unevenness in the wall (see Figure 3.3).
Slide the counter-rebate shell onto the rebate shell. Make sure that the trapezoidal anchors engage in the retaining brackets.
Put the shells together without wall width adjustment and gap-free (see Figure 3.5). Connect the two shells non-positive with the unscrewed drilling screws.
If necessary, remove the catch recesses and the bolt recesses with light hammer strokes (see Figure 4.1).
In case of changes to standard components, such as electric strikes or hinges with single cladding.
If necessary, open the wall in the area of the hinge reinforcement / lock protective boxes. Chisel the brickwork or notch the gypsum boards for partition walls. If necessary, notch the dry construction structural post. Reinforce the structural post as required.
In case of on-site wall unevenness or due to hygiene reasons, seal the transition between the frame overlap and the wall with elastic sealing compound (see Figure 4.5).
When fitting the frame with break-in-resistance, observe the additional measures in the product-specific instructions. For this, please contact the owner of the approval.

Acoustic insulation requirements

In case of acoustic insulation requirements, fill the rebate shell cavity with mineral wool on site. You can use 2C fitting foam as an alternative to mineral wool.
When using fitting foam, you also have to seal the hinge reinforcement and the wall protective caps.
Seal the transition between the frame overlap and the wall with elastic sealing compound (see Figure 4.5).
Tested acoustic values

Component| Acoustic insula- tion value (labor- atory value)| Acoustic rating cat- egory
---|---|---
Frame| ≤ 46 dB| 4
Standard seal| ≤ 35 dB| 2
Seal for acoustic insula-

tion requirements

| ≤ 42 dB| 3

The acoustic insulation values for internal doors include a fully tested door set. The door set consists of a frame, door leaf and seals (door leaf seals, retractable bottom seals).
The test values / expert opinions and instructions for the door set (door leaf manufacturer) are decisive.

Cleaning and care

Primed in an electrophoresis process or colour treatment

Sand the priming with a fine sand paper, e.g. 240 grain size, without fully abrading the coating. Then remove any abrasive dust. The frame must be free of:
- Oiling
- Lubrication
- Tensides
- Fingerprints
- Abrasive residues
Repair transport or fitting damage.
Use standard coating substances for the finishing coat or intermediate coat. Paints based on acrylate resin are recommended. Paints based on alkyd resin are generally unsuitable.
Observe the product information sheet of the paint manufacturer.
Perform a test coat.
Only fix the seal once the paint coating has fully dried.

ATTENTION

Aggressive solvents
Aggressive solvents or harsh paint materials can damage the priming and the sealing profile.

Only use standard coating substances. With professional application, this ensures faultless adhesion.
Always take note of the manufacturer information for the paint.
The warranty for the surface ceases to apply if a powder coating is applied on-site.

Powder coating

ATTENTION

Packaging, handling
Improper storage can result in damage to the final powder coating. The packaging acts as a means of transport protection.

Protect the frame from the effects of the weather such as sunlight, rain, wet, and high and low temperatures.
Store the frames in dry rooms.

The polyester-based final powder coating is the ideal, high-quality finish for interior use. The coating is UV- and corrosion-resistant and environmentally friendly.

Cleaning powder-coated surface finishes

Remove minor soiling using just a sponge and neutral cleaning agents.
Never use strongly alkaline or acidic substances or substances with an abrasive effect.

Stainless steel surface

ATTENTION

Packaging, handling
Improper storage can result in damage to the stainless steel surface. The packaging acts as a means of transport protection.

Protect the frame from adverse weather effects such as sunlight, rain, wet, and high and low temperatures.
Store the frames in dry rooms.

Inspection and maintenance

The operator is responsible for the perfect condition of the door set (frame, door leaf, fitting components and other accessories).
Only commission qualified and trained fitters with maintenance work.
Only use original spare parts from the manufacturer

Dismantling, recycling and disposal

Dismantling the steel frame is done in the reverse order of the assembly.
After dismantling, separate the steel frame into individual components. Recycle or dispose of the components in accordance with local official regulations.
