N. Fasten the door to the opening by driving two #8 x 1-1/4" corrosion resistant screws into

the pre-punched holes in the clips. If the clips are bent and fastened to the interior stud/

masonry screws per clip. Pre-drill the masonry before attempting to drive the screws in.

O. Drive #10 x 3-1/2" corrosion resistant wood screws through the holes in the

threshold in to the floor.
