Delivery and setup
- Inspect every box for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Hatco notes the sneeze guard may be shipped in multiple boxes; count them against the paperwork.
- Fasteners are not included. Hatco recommends 2-inch long #8 countersink screws for most surfaces; the right screw depends on the counter material and thickness.
- Hatco says installation takes two or more people. Wear eye protection when handling the glass, and measure carefully so the flanges stay square to each other.
- In the box: face panels and end panels in 1/4-inch glass, 1-inch stainless post assemblies and a hardware packet with a hex wrench for the set screws.
Questions buyers ask
How much counter space does it take?
The EP5-144 is 144 inches from post center to post center, 146 inches at the outside of the flanges and 142 inches between the inside of the flanges. It is 18 inches deep and 25 inches high.
What does it mount to, and are screws included?
It mounts to stainless steel, natural and engineered solid stone and laminate countertops. Screws are not included; Hatco recommends 2-inch long #8 countersink screws for most surfaces.
Does it meet NSF requirements?
Hatco says the 18-inch end panels meet NSF requirements. For NSF compliance, seal the set screw heads with NSF-approved silicone and keep the bottom edge of the end panels no more than 1-1/2 inches above the counter.
Can I get a different size or finish?
Hatco builds custom Flav-R-Shield configurations, such as other panel sizes, black or other post finishes, square glass corners, light bars and above or below counter flanges. Those are made to order as separate units; ask us for a quote.
How do I clean the glass?
Clean daily with non-abrasive cloths and cleaners. Spray the cleaner onto the cloth, not onto the guard. Hatco says abrasive materials scratch the finish and void the warranty.
What warranty does it have?
Hatco lists a warranty of one year, parts only.
