Door Reversal Instructions

The instructions here are for changing the door swing

from a right to a left side hinge. If the door has been

reversed, and it is necessary to change it back, use

care when following these instructions. Some of

the illustrations and the left/right references will be

reversed, and you will need to read the instructions

carefully.

WARNING

• Be sure to support the weight of the door before

removing the hinge screws.

While supporting the door, remove the 2 screws

Turn the door upside down and line up the holes

in the hinge with the holes on the opposite side
