CONTINUOUS AIR SEAL
Create a continuous
air seal on the interior
between the rough
opening and the
door frame with low
expansion foam. Allow
the foam to fully cure
and cut flush with a
sharp knife. Make sure
the foam cuts cleanly
and doesn't tear. On
the exterior, seal the
gap between the
door frame and rough
opening with backer
rod and sealant.
• Ensure sealant on back dam of the sill pan or recessed slab fully seals
to the inside face of the sill. Apply more sealant as necessary.
INSTALL SUPPORT TRIM (STEP-DOWN LANDING ONLY)
On the exterior, install support trim underneath the sill where it extends
over the landing. Position trim snugly against the bottom of the sill toe.
AFTER INSTALLATION
• Allow for an expansion joint of 1/4"- 3/8" between door frame and
final exterior wall surface (siding, stucco, etc.).
• Apply sealant to the exterior of the sill leaving a 1" gap located 4" -
6" from each corner. Leave additional 1" weep gaps at each interlock,
or every 4 feet, whichever is less.
• Protect recently installed units from damage from plaster, paint,
debris, etc. by covering the unit with plastic.
INSTALL AND ADJUST HARDWARE

INSTALL HANDLE
Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions supplied in the handle package.
OXXO configurations will require interior handles on both operating panels.
INSTALL SCREEN
Note! Screen is
designed to be placed
in front (on the same
side) of the interior
panel for normal use
in all configurations.
• Install the screen
from the exterior.
• Put the head of the
screen lip onto the
outside header rail.
• Lift the screen and
swing the bottom
onto the screen
track.
• OXXO screens may require an astragal to be attached for latching
purposes.
• Adjust the wheels at both the top and bottom in order to center the
screen between the head and track.
Note! Too much
tension will not allow
the screen to roll
properly.
• Locate the screen
keeper in the plastic
bag attached to the
screen.
• Install the keeper
into the screen track
of the jamb, so it
is aligned with the
latch on the screen
panel. Pre-drill holes
if necessary.
VERIFY OPERATION
• Test the door panel(s), screen and lock to verify proper operation.
Note! If the screen does not travel evenly, check to ensure top and
bottom are level and parallel to the head or sill.
