How to Install: Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure wall and floor are clean, level, and dry. Verify floor covering thickness does not exceed profile height (refer to label). Remove any protective film from the profile.
  2. Measure and Cut: Measure the wall length and cut the profile to size using a fine-tooth saw or mitre box for clean edges.
  3. Plan Electrical Routing: Drill holes in the profile for cables if needed. Cut and insert compatible LED strips (not supplied) into the housing, connect to 24V DC power supply, and test functionality.
  4. Apply Adhesive: Spread adhesive (e.g., Mapei Keraflex) on the wall with a notched trowel. Press the profile's flange into the adhesive, ensuring it's level.
  5. Lay Flooring: Install adjacent flooring flush with the profile, maintaining proper expansion joints. Seal gaps with grout using a suitable silicone or Mapei grout.
  6. Final Checks: Clean excess materials immediately with a damp sponge. Electrical work must be done by certified professionals.

Pro Tip: For seamless curves or corners, use Mapei flexible connectors. Always consult the full electrical components datasheet for power supply and dimmer integration.
