2 Ring Door Installation
Before starting to install, be sure the correct door has been received. (See Chart on Page 47.) Note that
1 ring doors are standard with some sizes of bins/silos. Refer to Page 53 for round access door
installation instructions.
2 Ring Door Installation Instructions (See Figure 6V on Page 48.)
1. Remove inner door panels (19-21) and outer door cover (1). Apply double row of rope caulk along
door flanges, noting how door and bin sheets lap. The top of the door frame goes to the inside of
the sidewall and the bottom of the door frame goes to the outside of the sidewall sheet. With inner
door panels and outer door cover removed, set door frame into opening. Insert a bolt at the four (4)
corners of door frame and sidewall, but do not tighten until completing
Step 2 .
2. Re-install inner door panels (19-21) at original locations. Close latch bars (12) to lock panels in place.
Be sure that panels are fully seated over all bearing pins (17). Install inner panel hinge assemblies
(8-10) per illustration instructions with hinges.
NOTE: Do not distort door frame with use of alignment or drift punches - if necessary, drill or ream
holes to insert bolts in door frame. Now tighten frame bolts starting at center and working
toward top and bottom on each side.
3. Keep inner panels latched and loosen all bearing pin bolts (17). Re-tighten all bearing pin bolts. This
makes loading on pins uniform for easier operation of panels.
4. If some latch bars (12) are loose or require excessive force to lock, loosen hex socket cap screws
and adjust in or out until latch bars operate smoothly. Check that the panels are fully seated over all
bearing pins.
5. Re-install outer door cover (1). Adjust outer door hinges and latches as required.
6. Assemble door hold back as shown in Figure 6V on Page 48 . Open door cover (1) until it approaches
the bin wall. Hook retaining bracket (5) over lower latch (2) mount and position the door hold back
bracket (24) against bin wall in a valley. Drill a 3/8" hole through the bin wall and bolt the door hold
back bracket (24) to the bin. If needed, install the door hold back extension (25) to door hold back
bracket (24).
