Assemble Door Jamb Components

Lay jamb components out on a flat protective surface prior to assembly (refer to

photos on page 1):

B. SYSTEM 3 – Two jamb legs, one mull post, one header, one sill

C. SYSTEMS 4 & 5 – Two jamb legs, two mull posts, one header, one sill.

2.

Prior to assembly, apply a light bead of caulk along all connecting surfaces of jamb

components for sealing and adhesion (Fig. 10).

3.

Attach and fasten jamb legs to the head jamb, using 1-1/2" screws into the pre-drilled

holes on the jamb leg. Make sure the edges of the head and side jamb line up and are

even with each other. Snug screws so corners are square and tight, with no gaps (Fig.

11 & Fig. 12).

Attach and fasten jamb legs to sill using 1-1/2" screws into pre-drilled holes on

outside jamb (Fig. 13).

pre-drilled holes from bottom of sill into mull post (Fig. 14).
