How it Works:

Installing Fast Trak Standard – quick, simple and safe. See how it works below, or download the full technical data pack for more details.

Download the Technical Data Pack
Step 1: Using the marking indentations on the ends of the Fast Trak cartridge, mark the fixing point location for the vertical drops.
Step 2: Use the screws provided to fix the tracks to the soffit, ensuring that the tracks are facing outwards.
Step 3: Press and hold both of the Fast Trak cartridges inwards simultaneously to retract the latches.
Step 4: Locate the tracks into the cartridge slots. Continue to press the cartridges inwards whilst the bracket is lifted to the correct height. When the bracket is at the correct height, release the cartridges to lock it in position.
Step 5: Fold any track which extends below the bracket inwards and up underneath the bracket for a flush finish.
