Veranda Key Frame Accessory

Ground & façade

• A good flat stable surface is required for construction of the veranda.
• The location where the roof will be placed must be construction-ready and free of obstacles (garden furniture, flower boxes, etc.) so installers can perform their work without hindrance.
• Any obstacles, including utility lines (such as power cables, etc.), roots and debris, must have been removed from the ground.
• The façade must be free of sun shades, etc.
• The place where the wall profile will be placed must be firm, even and flat.

Dimensions & slope

• This Deponti roof should be installed with a slope of 15,7cm per metre.
  The height of the wall profile and the passage height (distance from bottom of gutter to the ground) are completely dependent on each other and determined by this slope.
• The maximum length of the roof is 4 metres. However, keep in mind the requirements concerning the maximum free span and number of posts.

Posts & joined verandas

• Maximum distance between the posts is 4 metres.
• When verandas are joined, a post is always placed under the coupling.
• The rainwater discharge cannot be placed inside a post above which gutters are joined.

Attachments at walls

• Due to expansion of the materials, the veranda may not be placed tightly between two walls; there must be a gap of 1.5 mm per metre of width of the veranda.
• When concrete bases are used the posts cannot be placed against the wall, because the block is wider than the post.
• If you want to place a post against a wall, you must saw the flange off of one side and drill two new holes in the flange so that you can secure the post in four places.

Screws and drilling

• Deponti supplies special 4.2×19 mm and 4.2×40 mm stainless steel screws with the veranda.
  Note: Pre-drill a hole for each screw with a 3 mm drill bit! If you continue to turn them after they are tight, the screw head may break off. It is recommended that you screw carefully, with the torque limiter on your drill set properly.
• Note: Never drill and screw through the PVC rainwater discharge pipe in one of the posts.

Sealant

• Deponti supplies sealant in the colours RAL9001 and RAL7024. This supplied sealant has been specially selected for the waterproof sealing of aluminium to aluminium or to most common
  construction materials, such as walls, concrete, etc. Follow the instructions on the tube.

Rubber seals

• A Deponti veranda is standard equipped with pre-assembled, colour-matched rubber seals. Before installation, the rubber seals for both the aluminium cover strips and the beams must be cut to length.
• If the rubber seals are deformed, they can be straightened again with a little heat, from a hot air heater or hair dryer for example.

Remove protective film

• It is recommended that the protective film be removed from the aluminium parts and the roofing sheets at the last possible moment, to prevent damage. When mounting the roofing sheets, however, the edges of the protective film must be pulled back a few centimetres towards the middle of the sheet so the film does not get stuck in the profiles; otherwise it will be difficult to remove later.

Warranty is void if the Nebbiolo veranda is not assembled and installed in accordance with the instructions.
