Do not remove or paint over any fire labels. Please see our separate
document for additional requirements for installing fire-rated doors at
www.jeld-wen.com/resources. Automatically closing hinges are required

close and latch securely. If it does not, adjust the spring as follows:
1. With the door closed,
insert the provided
hex wrench so that
it can be rotated
clockwise. Hold in
place and remove
tension pin with
a small punch or
magnet.
2. Rotate hex wrench
clockwise 1/4 turn
and re-insert tension
pin loosely into
tension hole.
3. Remove hex wrench and try closing force.
4. Repeat steps until closing force is adequate but do not rotate past 3
holes on 180 o openings or 4 holes on 90 o openings.
