You supply the foundation opening . . . PermEntry
does the rest.
The PermEntry Basement is delivered and installed
by Bilco PermEntry dealers in just a few hours. The following is an overview of
the installation process.
Installing the
PermEntry Basement Entrance:
1
Holes for special
high-strength bolts are drilled through foundation.
2
Facing surfaces
are coated with self-sealing butyl resin strip sealant for a watertight
seal. The PermEntry precast stairwell is then lowered into position onto the
foundation footing.
3
Precast stairwell
is secured prior to backfill through foundation wall using built-in steel
anchors. On a block or precast foundation, a permanent steel support is
installed on a concrete slab underneath the precast unit.
4
The all-steel
Bilco basement door assembly is anchored to the precast stairwell and
caulked.
