Installing Astragal Retaining Plate & Grommet for
Double Door Units
After the double door is properly aligned, use the
astragal bolts to mark and drill 3/8” diameter x 1 3/8”
min. deep hole through the head jamb and 5/8”
diameter x 1 3/8” min. deep hole through the sill, per
Figures 2e, 2f, and 2g. Pre-drill (2) 1/16” pilot holes for
the mounting screws for the head jamb. Install the
retaining plate in the head jamb using the included
hardware and insert the grommet into the 5/8”
diameter hole in the sill.

Position Strike and Deadbolt Plates for Double Door
Units
Close both doors. Mark desired positions for strike and
deadbolts plates. Loosen the retainer screws (do not
completely remove screws). Place the strike and
deadbolt plates into position (left image of Figure 2h)
and tighten the screws. Only use the screws that came
in the retainers. Do not use other screws as this may
cause a malfunction in the operation of the doors.
Check positions and adjust as needed.
Install Trim Covers for Double Door Units
Cut the Trim Covers so that the ends fit under both the strike
and deadbolt plates and butt up against the strike and
deadbolt retainers (as shown in the right side of Figure 2h
[1,2,3]).
Loosen the screws on the strike and deadbolt plates and slip
the Trim Cover underneath. Snap the Trim Covers into place
and tighten screws.

Install 2 screws at the location
shown in Figure 3 on the top

2 or 3 (8ft door) hinges (screws
included in installation kit).

Threshold
For an in-swing door with adjustable threshold, adjust the
threshold as shown in Figure 4 so that there is even contact
between the door sweep and the threshold. To test, put a
sheet of paper between door sweep and threshold, close
the door and pull. The correct adjustment would have slight
tension, but if the paper tears, the tension is too high.
