6. Finish all six sides of the door slab and weatherstrip stops. Failure to
finish the slab according to our finishing instructions may result in
denial of warranty claims. The metal frame is pre-finished and does
not require finishing.
7. If any subfloor was exposed and covered with flashing, cover this
flashing with a thin piece of wood or similar material. Adhere with
construction adhesive and run a bead of sealant all the way around
with a discontinuous joint on the exterior face.
8. Remove protective film from glass (if applicable).
9. Sealant joints will need to be inspected at least once a year and
repaired as necessary.
FINISH INSTALLATION
1. Shim underneath of the new threshold and existing sill if necessary to
create a flat surface for the new door sill.
2. Apply new casing to
the inside or reuse
the casing previously
removed. Secure with
new 8d finish nails
supplied.
3. Adjust threshold
cap if necessary. It is
shipped in the lowest
position. Sweep
should contact
threshold and
compress slightly.
To raise, remove
protective caps and
turn screws clockwise
to desired height.
4. The included corner
pads are used
to complete the
weatherstrip seal
at each bottom
corner between the
jamb and operating
slab when closed.
Position the thick
edge behind the
weatherstrip, remove
the backing paper and adhere to the jamb as shown.
5. Seal all joints and gaps at the sill around the new threshold and
along the back and sides as shown.
