SECURITRON CONCRETE WOOD HEADER BRACKET MODELS CWB-32, CWB-62 AND CWB-82 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The CWB is a 1/2" [12.7mm] thick anodized aluminum concrete wood header bracket with three (3) individual designs for each of the Models M32, M62 or M82 Magnalocks. Installations that contain wood door type frames, steel frames and/or steel concrete filled header frames may require this type of special spacer/structural bracket. The purpose of the CWB concrete wood header bracket is to improve frame mounting strength, Magnalock/Strike clearances, alignments and ease of the installation. The brackets are available for all standard mount M32, M62 and M82 Magnalocks models.
2. PRODUCT OVERVIEW
All three (3) CWB, concrete wood header bracket, models are available separately in both clear anodized or black anodized finish. The illustration below in Figure 1 indicates the three concrete wood header bracket model types available. Along with these instructions, each model type contains one (1) model type bracket and the individually related model type hardware pack. Upon unpacking these products, an inventory should be made to ensure that the required bracket and hardware have been included.
3. RECOMMENDED TOOLS
Power Drill Drill Bit: 3/16" [4.8mm] Center Punch Drill Bit: 7/32" [5.5mm] 1/2" Wrench or Adjustable Phillips Screw Driver #2 or #3 3/16" Hex Wrench
4. WOOD FRAME MAGNALOCK MOUNTING
Mounting the CWB, concrete wood header bracket, onto a wood frame header requires the use of the #14 x 4" long wood screws provided. Figure 2 illustrates a visual concept of the parts that will be applied to secure the CWB, concrete wood header bracket, in an M62 Magnalock installation. The wood screws mount through the door frame and extend into the internal header to ensure a safe and secure mounting of the Magnalock reducing the possibility of becoming loose during regular use.
5. STEEL HOLLOW FRAME AND CONCRETE FILLED FRAME MAGNALOCK MOUNTING
Mounting the CWB, concrete wood header bracket, onto a steel hollow frame or a steel concrete filled frame header requires the #12 x 1-1/2" sheet metal screws provided. Figure 3 illustrates a visual concept of the parts that will be applied to secure the CWB, concrete wood header bracket, in an M62 Magnalock installation. The sheet metal screws ensure a safe mounting of the Magnalock reducing the possibility of becoming loose during regular use.
