Installation Guide

Installation Tips
Dimensions plastic lattice can be cut and drilled using standard
tools. Use rustproof or rust-resistant fasteners to maintain the
beauty of your project over time. For a distinguished look,
frame panels with plastic caps and connect panels with plastic
dividers. Always allow a 1/4" gap between the lattice edge and
moulding for the panel to expand and contract with tempera-
ture changes. Lattice must be attached to a self-supporting
structure or frame. Suspend lattice from top row of fasteners.
•
Along the top, use a 1/4" drill bit to predrill oversized holes
every two feet through both the moulding and lattice.
Fasten with screws, taking care not to over-tighten. Along
the sides and bottom, predrill oversized holes every two
feet through the moulding only and fasten with screws.
Again, be careful not to over-tighten the screws.
•
Do not install lattice in a horizontal application.
Without proper support, lattice will be prone to
sagging, rippling and heat retention.
•
Standard Dimensions lattice is a nonporous
material. Coatings such as paint and stain do not
adhere well to the surface.
Paintable Lattice Painting Tips
•
Clean the surface of the paintable plastic lattice
sheet with a solution of warm water and dish soap.
Rinse and allow to dry.

over the entire surface, as instructed on the can.
Allow to dry between coats.
•
Once dry, apply a thin coat of any aerosol paint over
the entire surface, per product directions. Allow to
dry as directed. Apply a second coat of aerosol paint
over entire lattice sheet. Allow to dry as directed.
