7a. Remove Extruded Wall Connector and place onto the inside edge of the Right Side Panel as illustrated
(Fig. A). Note: Ensure the Wall Connector installs and fits correctly as illustrated (Fig. B & C). Butt the
barbed side of the Wall Connector against the Side Panel surface. Use tape to hold Wall Connector in
place, then pre-drill the Right Side Panel flange using an 11/64" drill bit through each pre-drilled hole of
the Wall Connector. Note: It is highly recommended that you drill a pilot hole for each screw as well to
prevent Extruded Wall Connector from shifting.
7b. Secure Right Side Panel and Wall Connector using GRK Cabinet screws
preferred. If using other type of screw, ensure it has a washer head of appproximately 7/16" diameter
and rated for exterior wet locations use. Note: It is not recommended to use a powered drill for the last
few turns of the screw; use a hand screwdriver instead to avoid possible distortion of the Extruded Wall
Connector.
7c. Once Wall Connector is securely screwed in place, complete the dry fit process of the Left Side Panel to
the Right Side Panel. Hold Left Side Panel up in position without pushing the side into Wall Connector
and check that it fits the same as during the dry-fit stage. Check that the Left Side Panel fits correctly
into the Extruded Wall Connector with no gaps. Note: Applying a small amount of water to the joint
of the Wall Connector will make inserting the Left Side Panel easier to do.
