ormagnet.
2. Rotate hex wrench 
clockwise 1/4 turn 
and re-insert tension 
pin loosely into 
tensionhole.
3. Remove hex wrench and try closing force.
4. Repeat steps until closing force is adequate but do not rotate past 3 
holes on 180
o

underneath the sill where it extends past the landing. Position trim 
snugly against the bottom of the sill toe/nose.

complete or within one year.
