COMPLETE INSTALLATION
FINISH INSTALLATION
1. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions supplied in the handle
package.
2. Install track covers.
3. Install astragal if applicable.
4. If the door unit has a strike jamb against a rough opening jamb, drive
#10 x 2 1/2" screws through the screw holes in the strike plate. Replace
existing screws if necessary. This will secure the door frame to the structure.
5. Install drip cap if required or desired. Fold the building wrap
(previously taped up) down over the drip cap and seal the cut ends
with self-adhesive flashing or building wrap tape.
CONTINUOUS AIR SEAL
On the interior, create a continuous air seal between the rough opening
and the door frame with backer rod and sealant or low expansion foam.
AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Maintain gap of 1/4"- 3/8" between door frame and final exterior
wall surface (siding, stucco, etc.).
2. Seal this gap on the
sides with backer
rod and sealant. Do
not apply sealant on
top of the drip cap
if present.
3. Protect recently
installed units
from damage from
plaster, paint, etc.
by covering the unit
with plastic.
4. Remove labels or
other materials
adhered to glass
within 30 days after
installation.
