5XPT SLIDING GLASS DOOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
This page will be required if assembling an OXO door.
Otherwise, disregard and proceed to Step 14.
See Fig. 11 for Step F below:
Step F. Marry a vertical seal to the already applied sealant across the sill and seal the joint between
the OXO fixed panel meeting rail and the threshold. This seal joint will follow the underneath
profile of the threshold and fill the gap between both the horizontal and vertical weather-strip.
Seal over thermal break at least 2” up from the sill as shown. This seal will never be seen
once the operable panel is loaded. All sealant joints must be continuous with one another
and tooled with no voids.
Note:
The sealant at the head is an exact mirror of the sealant applied to the sill and
its intersection as shown in Fig. 11.
All sealant must be continuous with
one another and tooled with no voids.
