Installation notes
i) Ensure plaster key mounting surface

and free from grease and dirt.
ii) Locate plaster key centrally over
lintel (refer to illustration above to
determine the position on lintel).
iii) Apply a 6mm bead of adhesive along

accordance with adhesive
manufactureres instructions.
iv) Locate the plaster key against the
toe of the lintel at the position
previously determined and rotate
onto lintel, apply downward pressure
to ensure full adhesive contact to

v) Pull surfaces apart to allow adhesive
to dry for 10-15 minutes.
vi) Reposition the plaster key onto the
