Dodge Hangers are an incredibly useful corrosion resistant, stainless steel construction hardware for installing the starter row of your wall sheathing, siding and roof decking with plywood, OSB, T1-11, cement boards, or lap siding by one man, which can save a lot of money on labor. Dodge Hangers promote safety and ergonomics, making them easy and comfortable to use. They are able to support a significant amount of weight without issue, taking the burden off the man. Additionally, the Dodge Hangers will lock the material into place for a no movement nail-off. You can work on all sides independently and still have consistency, uniformity and accuracy of installation.
The Dodge Hanger Corner 15 (DHC15) series are outside corner hangers that are compatible with the Dodge Hanger Rear (DHR15 series) or the Dodge Hanger Top Leveler (DHTL15 series) drop hangers for installing wall sheathing or siding.
SHEATHING DROP SYSTEM®
Use the Dodge Hanger Corner® 15 (DHC15) along with the Dodge Hanger Top Leveler®(DHTL15) or Dodge Hanger Rear® (DHR15) to install the starter row of the sheathing with a drop below the mudsill.
Select the DHC15 and the DHTL with saddle widths that fit the thickness of the sheathing material to be installed.
1. You will need a DHC15 for each outside corner.
2. Bend the top tab of the DHC15 over and place on the mudsill at each corner. If mudsill is larger than 1.5”, do not bend the top tab over, but attach directly to the side of the mudsill.
3. Lightly hammer the stab tab on the DHC15 to help hold it on the mudsill.
4. Fasten to the mudsill with Approved Fasteners*.
5. Using the DHC15 along with the DHTL , your sheathing will hang approximately 1” below the foundation.
6. Once your DHC15’s are installed, it is recommended you attach the DHTL is on a 1’ by 3’ pattern around the mud sill plate, after establishing the layout of the sheathing to be installed. You should place a DHTL no more than 6” in from each joint/seam.
7. For vertically installed sheathing (4’ x 8’, 9’, 10’, 12’) it is recommended you use (2) DHTL’s per sheet.
8. For horizontally installed wall sheathing (8’ x 4’) it is recommended you use (3) DHTL’s per sheet (i.e., (1) hanger each at 6”, 4’, 7’6”)
9. Bend the top tab of the DHTL over, forming a 90° angle, and set it on the top of the mudsill.
10. Lightly hammer the stab tab on the DHTL into the mudsill.
11. Attach with Approved Fasteners*.
12. The saddle of the DHTL will hang approximately 1” below the mudsill, allowing the sheathing to drop as it rests on the hanger.
If you can’t access the top of the mudsill, use the DHR.
A. Insert the rear tab of the DHR between the mudsill and the top of the foundation wall.
C. Secure with Approved Fastener*.
D. Place sheathing on the hangers and nail-off.
SIDING DROP SYSTEM®
The Dodge Hanger Rear® 15 (DHR) is part of a drop system that is designed to install the starter row of siding below the bottom edge of the sheathing to create a barrier at the mudsill.
Use the DHR to hang your siding with a drop if you installed your sheathing even or flush with the top of the foundation wall using the DHC0 and DHB no drop system.
Select the DHR with a saddle width that most closely fits the thickness of the siding material to be installed.
