How to install Middle Atlantic Mounting Spacer for Faceplate

  • Peel back the adhesive liner from a spacer tab and position it on the back edge of the faceplate, starting near a corner for easier alignment.
  • Continue applying additional spacers as needed, stacking them carefully to reach the exact thickness you calculated.
  • Press each spacer firmly to ensure a secure bond with the faceplate backing and to maximize adhesive contact with the surface.
  • Place the faceplate against the panel, aligning edges with adjacent components, then apply even pressure across the entire faceplate to complete adhesion.
