Lift the unit up. With top edge tilted away from opening, center the
unit and place sill down onto sill pan (or caulk beads), and tilt into the
opening.
For all door unit congurations, note the hinge locations and mark
those locations on the jamb faces near the door surfaces. Pre-drill 1/8
inch diameter holes at these locations for screw placement. A counter
sink bit will help to conceal the screw heads.
Install screws in the center pre-drilled hole locations on both jambs
to temporarily secure the unit in the place. Do not drive screws
completely in at this time. Use #8 x 2-1/2 inch or 3 inch exterior grade
screws.
STEP 4: PLACE UNIT IN OPENING & TEMPORARILY FASTEN
DO NOT fasten through the brickmould.
Work from the side of the door that is weather-stripped.
Use a 6-foot level, and plumb the hinge side jamb both ways (right to left and inside to outside).
Place screws through the hinge side jamb into the studs, at each remaining hinge location, as shown in the
diagrams. Use #8 X 2-1/2 inch or 3 inch exterior grade screws.
For single or double doors, place screws at each hinge
location, so shims can be placed behind hinges above
screws. The screws will keep the shims from falling
down while adjustments are being made.
For sidelite units, fasten the jamb on the hinge side of
the door.
For double door and patio units, fasten the xed or
passive side of the unit rst.
DO NOT drive the screws completely in at this time.
