1.) E-Lite Base
Attachment Base
Attachment Base Fasteners
Note: When E-Lite System is attached to
EFCO Corporation Curtain Wall or Storefront
Products, the size, type, spacing, and quantity
of fasteners will be recommended based on
the depth of E-Lite System. Attachment
fastener recommendation to any other (non-
EFCO) product or substrate must be designed
accordingly by responsible party.
Vertical Curtain Wall, Storefront, or Substrate
A.) Locate the horizontal component or substrate where the E–Lite will be attached.
Note: Typically the top of the base will be flush with the top of the horizontal.
B.) Level the E-Lite Attachment Base in the “perpendicular to the wall” plane. While securing the
base to the vertical wall, avoid “flexing” or “bowing” the E-Lite Base extrusion. (This will make
it difficult to load the rigid E-Lite Module panels into the base.)
