Tools Recommended for Assembly
One-way screw tool (sold separately), drill 3/16 in. bit, level or string plumb, and pencil.
1. Security doors are finished with a heavy-duty powder coat finish. In order to maintain your finish we require cleaning and
waxing the security door 2 times per year, preferable late fall and early spring. Doors directly subjected to the sun, salt-air
or moisture may require more maintenance.
2. Any scratches or abrasions to the door finish must be immediately touched up with enamel or rust protective paint.
3. To keep your door looking like new, any signs of rust should be sanded with mild sandpaper and touched up immediately
with enamel or rust protective paint.
4. Hinges and lockset (sold separately) should be oiled and lubricated regularly to reduce friction wear.
5. Make sure any sprinklers near your new door are directed away.
6. Do not allow vegetation on your security door. This will lead to extra maintenance.
7. Make sure to keep your weed eater and lawn mower away from your security door. It may create unwanted chips to your
door finish.

1. Identify which way the security
door is to open (Fig. 1).
5. Align the lock bolt holes in the lock-
side jamb with the extended lock bolts,
making sure the jamb is vertically true
(plumb) (Fig. 5).
2. Install the lockset (sold separately)
with 2-3/8: backset. Then, fully extend
the lock bolts into the “locked”
position (Fig. 2).
6. Mount lock-side jamb to door frame
jamb. Drill holes. Fasten lock-side
jamb to the house, using the one-way
security lag screws. Tighten lag
screws only halfway at this time. When
you are satisfied with the position and
operation of the security door, tighten lag
screws securely to the house (Fig. 6).
3. Place security door in front of opening
at desired height, making sure that
the security door is vertical (plumb).
Determine where to drill by marking
through the pre-drilled holes on the
hinge-side jamb with pencil (Fig. 3).
7. Insert plugs in ends of header.
Mount header jamb at top of door
using remaining 2 one-way screws.
Leave approximately 1/8 in. space
between header jamb and top of
door frame (Fig. 7).
4. Drill holes. Using the one-way security
lag screws, fasten door to house.
Tighten lag screws only halfway,
at this time, in case repositioning the
door is required later (Fig. 4).
IMPORTANT: Read all instructions carefully before starting installation.
