A FLIGHT Mono Installation in 8 Steps
Each FLIGHT system is uniquely designed, and installation may vary based on your chosen configuration. Here’s a quick overview of the key steps for setting up a straight FLIGHT Mono staircase:
1. Prep the Stringer
Attach the plates to both ends of the stringer, following the exact tightening and torquing sequence provided in the installation instructions to ensure proper setup and stability.
2. Mark the Header Position
Use the measurements from the drawing we provide to accurately mark the position on the header where the header plate will be mounted, ensuring precise alignment during installation.
3. Raise the Stringer into Position
With the help of a winch, carefully lift the stringer into place, aligning it with the header marks. Secure it temporarily using a lag bolt to hold it in position.
4. Install the Tread Brackets
Install all tread brackets, ensuring proper attachment. The bottom tread requires a unique attachment method due to low clearance, which is detailed in the provided instructions for accuracy.
5. Ensure the Stringer is Level
Place treads near the top and bottom, ensuring they are level and spaced evenly from the wall. Shim the stringer if necessary to achieve the correct level and alignment.
6. Secure the Stringer
After leveling the treads and aligning the stringer, insert a second lag bolt into the header plate and secure all header and footer plate holes. Then, install the cover plates.
7. Secure the Remaining Treads
Using the supplied fasteners, install the remaining treads securely, ensuring they are tightly fixed to the stringer for a solid, stable staircase.
8. Install Tread Bracket Covers
Place magnets on pre-installed screws and apply silicone around the treads. Then, install the covers in place, ensuring a snug fit for a clean, finished appearance.
