SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read installation instructions completely
before beginning procedure.
Wear gloves, safety glasses, goggles or
eye shields appropriate to procedure.
Check Rough Opening Size
Before you begin, check the following:
IMPORTANT: High-quality, exterior,
neutral-cure, clear, silicone sealant (compatible
with aluminum extrusion and exterior face of
the wall) is to be used for all procedures in the
following instructions which call for caulking or
sealant.
IMPORTANT: Check to make sure you
have the correct door type and the correct
size door (Width and Height) for your rough
opening (FIGURES 1 – 5).
1. Measure the rough opening to ensure that it is
not more than 1/2" taller in overall Height or 3/4"
wider in overall Width (FIGURE 1) than Jamb
Height or Width (FIGURES 2, 3, 4, & 5).
IMPORTANT: If unit is to meet design
pressure ratings, a maximum 1/4" shim space
is required around perimeter. A shim space
greater than 1/4" could result in lower product
performance and may be considered non-com-
pliant with certain building codes. If necessary,
adjust rough opening so shim space is not
greater than 1/4" on each side and the top.
NOTE: Doors do not require 1/4" shim space at
the sill.
