Installation Guide
How to Install — Step-by-Step Guide (for DIY Customers)
At UpCurtains, all our window and door systems are designed for easy and safe installation.
If you prefer to install your products yourself, please follow these Australian-standard guidelines carefully.
一、Tools & Materials You’ll Need
● Power drill and screwdriver
● Spirit level
● Measuring tape (mm)
● Pencil or marker
● Silicone sealant
● Appropriate screws and fixings for wall type (timber, brick, or concrete)
● Safety gear — gloves, glasses, and stable ladder if required
● Double-check all measurements match your confirmed order size.
● Inspect all parts before starting — frame, glass, screws, and trims.
● Ensure the wall or frame surface is level, clean, and dry.
● For replacement installations, remove the old frame and clean the area thoroughly.
💡 Tip: Always check alignment with a level before drilling or sealing.
1. Position the Frame
Place the frame into the opening. Use packers to centre and level it.
2. Fix the Frame
Secure the frame through the pre-drilled holes.
For brick or rendered walls, use masonry anchors; for timber, use standard screws.
3. Seal & Finish
Apply silicone sealant along the edges for weatherproofing.
Add finishing trims if required for a neat look.
4. Test Operation
Open and close the window/door several times to ensure smooth movement.
Check for air or water gaps and reseal if necessary.
四、Safety & Compliance (Australia)
All installations must comply with relevant Australian Standards:
● AS2047 – Windows and External Glazed Doors
(structural, air, and water performance requirements)
● AS1288 – Glass in Buildings
(safety glazing materials and installation standards)
● Child Safety:
Any opening lower than 1700mm from the floor must have a window restrictor or safety lock.
⚠️ Important: DIY installers are responsible for ensuring compliance with local council regulations and safety laws.
If you are unsure, always engage a licensed installer — incorrect installation can void warranty and compromise safety.
