"Klick" Installation Instructions:

BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Materials required: PE sheeting and adhesive tape. Tools Required: Folding rule (tape measure), pencil, compass saw, hammer, straight edge, tapping block, spacing wedges.

STEP 1: Shorten the groove check on the boards required for the first row by the part protruding over the area to be covered. "Klick" these boards in sideways using tapping block and align the first row of boards exactly with distance wedges. The interval to the wall and to all fixed components must be at least 3/8" (10mm) (with large rooms at least 1/16th" per yard of room width). The wedges are to be removed once the entire floors installed. The boards should be installed lengthwise to the light incidence. The only exception is with existing wood plank floors, install perpendicular to the direction of the existing floor.

STEP 2: Once the first row has been aligned percisely using a straight edge, begin installing the second row with the remaining piece of the last board of the first row. The front joints (cross joints) of the boards from row to row must however be offset by at least 1". We recommend that the joints be centered on the plank of the previous row. Set the first board slightly diagonal as illustrated and "klick" this in by pressing against and lightly rocking. Proceed in the same manner with the second board and drive the front joints of this board into the first row (and so on) by using the tapping block.

STEP 3: Where there are heating pipes coming out of the floor cut around pipes allowing for expansion. Then cover with radiator rosettes.

STEP 4: As shown in the diagram (below), shorten door frames and doors to the height of the floor.

STEP 5: Fitting the last row: measure distance left (taking into account the wedge space) between the wall and the last row installed. Mark and cut the strip to be installed lengthwise. "Klick" and fit as before.

STEP 6: The last row is driven in using the cramping tool.

STEP 7: Skirting boards, transition strips for completing your floor. Felt for table and chair leg bottoms are important details to protect your new floor. Your specialist dealer will help you with any advice you need and has a wide range of products available.
