MATERIALS AND TOOLS
NEEDED MATERIALS
Note! Follow all material manufacturers’ instructions for proper use
and compatibility. When using flashing, spray adhesive/primer, sealant
and foam products, we recommend using the same manufacturer and
verifying compatibility.
• Sill: Wood Sub Floor: #8 x 1 1/4" corrosion-resistant, pan-head screws;
Concrete Sub Floor: 1/4" diameter self-tapping concrete screws
(Tapcon
® , or equivalent); length of screw must penetrate at least 1
1/4" into the sub floor. Side Jambs: #10 x 2 1/2" corrosion-resistant,
flat-head screws; Head jamb: #10 x 2 1/2" corrosion-resistant, pan-
head screws.
• Non-compressible or water degradable shims
• Sill pan: It is best practice to use a pre-formed, rigid, positively sloped,
PVC pan that provides continuous support. We recommend using
SureSill™ Sloped Sill Pan™ , manufactured by SureSill™, Ltd. An
alternative would be a non-sloped pre-formed sill pan or one can be
fabricated on site from metal or vinyl sheet material with the proper
tools.
• Sealant: We recommend OSI ® QUAD ® Max Sealant or equivalent. This
can be used in any application and can be painted or ordered in a
color matched product, if desired.
SAFETY
• Read and fully understand ALL manufacturers’ instructions before
beginning. Failure to follow proper installation and finishing
instructions may result in the denial of warranty claims for
operational or performance problems.
• Do not work alone. Two or more people are required. Use safe lifting
techniques.
• Use caution when handling glass. Broken or cracked glass can cause
serious injury.
• Wear protective gear (e.g. safety glasses, gloves, ear protection, etc.).
• Operate hand/power tools safely and follow manufacturer’s operating
instructions.
• Use caution when working at elevated heights.
• If disturbing existing paint, take proper precautions if lead paint is
suspected (commonly used before 1979). Your regional EPA (www.
epa.gov/lead) or Consumer Product Safety Commission offices provide
information regarding regulations and lead protection.
SAFETY AND HANDLING
MATERIALS AND DOOR HANDLING
• Heed material manufacturers’ handling and application instructions.
• Protect adhesive surfaces from dirt, moisture, direct sunlight and
folding over onto themselves.
• Handle in vertical position; do not drag on floor.
• Do not put stress on joints, corners or frames.
• Store door in dry, well-ventilated area in vertical, leaning position to
allow air circulation; do not stack horizontally.
• Protect from exposure to direct sunlight during storage.
• Install only into vertical walls and when conditions and sheathing
are dry.
IF INJURY OCCURS, IMMEDIATELY SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION!
ROUGH OPENINGS
FULLY SHEATHED WALL CONSTRUCTION
The wall framing is
covered by sheathing
and the door will be
mounted inside of the
rough opening. This
installation assumes
building wrap is
properly installed
prior to installation.
This installation guide specifically addresses masonry/block wall,
sheathed wall and open-stud construction.
MASONRY/BLOCK WALL CONSTRUCTION
This installation
assumes that a
building professional
has already properly
fastened and sealed
a framework of studs
(often called a buck)
to the concrete/
