Green-Zip™ Partition Specifications |
WALL "B" (floor to deck):
Demountable Green-Zip Partition™ (wall to deck).
Where the code requires or if the partition is over 12 feet tall use Wall "B" which has screws at the middle studs. This is similar to Wall "A". However, the middle stud(s) have screws (which you must float and sand over screws at the middle studs) and you must seal and caulk as per architect's specifications and code where partition meets the deck. All screw spacing and construction must be in accordance with architect's specifications and the code. Refer to Green-Zip representatives for method to disassemble.
DISASSEMBLY: Refer to Green-Zip tech support for patented method to disassemble.
ACCESSORIES:
Cabinets or similar loads on Green-Zip Partition: Where loads such as cabinets or shelves exist, reinforce the partition as required—as with any drywall system. Use typical drywall blocking, 16 or 20 gauge roll sheet metal (with self-tapping screws at mounting height), heavy gauge and/or additional middle studs and/or as required or specified by architect or engineer.
"Hang" Cabinets on partition using wood "Z-Hangers™" because this allows easy removal and relocation and a means of distributing the load to each stud (never to the drywall). Attach thru drywall panel into the stud, sheet metal, and/or blocking with toggle or molly bolts as required.
"Z-Hangers" consist of 1" x 6" nominal (3/4" thick actual x 5-1/2" tall actual) cut in half with a 45 degree cut forming two pieces with each piece ¾" thick and about 3-1/8" tall on one face and about 2-3/8" tall on the short face . Attach one piece to the outside of the wall with the short face against the wall and the 45 degree edge facing up (attach directly into studs and/or blocking with molly or toggle bolts as required); mount the other piece to the back of the cabinet with the short face against the cabinet and 45 degree edge downward. Use one or more sets of "Z-Hangers" as required to support the loaded accessory. Add a bottom spacer.

The length of the "Z-Hanger" is the same as the length of the cabinets; exception: for each side of the cabinet that is visable reduce the length of the Z-Hanger by 1-1/2" and add a ¾" thick by ¾" wide wood trim. Paint the exposed edge black so that the "Z-Hanger" gets lost in the ¾" deep reveal shadow. This makes the length of the wood Z-Hanger 3" shorter than the cabinet if both sides are exposed.
