DP 80 doors come with
a sill riser accessory
which is installed
as follows. Apply a
bead of sealant in
the groove of the
sill riser. Snap the sill
riser to the sill so the
pieces lock together
as shown. Using a rag,
clean up any excess
sealant. 1. Using the supplied
1" screws, fasten
the sill to the right
and left frame
parts. The pre-
drilled holes in the
sill will line up with
the screw bosses
(grooves in the
frame sides). Make
sure the attached
gasket lies flat
and the screws are
inserted properly
into the screw
bosses.
2. Using the supplied
1" screws, fasten
the header to
the right and left
frame parts by
inserting screws
into the screw
bosses through
the pre-drilled holes in the header. Verify handing of parts to ensure
the inside jamb pocket is fully weatherstripped; the lock keeper is
typically installed in this jamb pocket.
3. Seal the screw
heads, screw bosses,
and the outside of
each corner joint
with polyurethane
or 100% silicone
sealant as shown.
4. Dry fit the door
frame by inserting
the door frame into
the rough opening
to verify proper fit.
• Verify the rough opening is plumb (C). The maximum allowable
deviation is 1/8".
• The rough opening sill must not be crowned or sagged (D). A 5 degree
sloped sill is recommended.
• The exterior face of the rough opening must be in a single plane with
less than 1/8" twist from corner to corner (E).
• In wood frame construction, the header must be supported by
trimmer studs and designed to ensure that no load is transferred to
patio door unit.
• Correct any deviations before installing the patio door. Consult a
building professional as needed.

opening (inside the
buck) is no larger
than 1/2" wider and
1/4" taller than the
patio door frame.
