IF INJURY OCCURS , IMMEDIATELY SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION!

Not all door types may be installed into every wall condition in all areas. Consult your local building code official for applicable building codes

and regulations. Local building code requirements supersede recommended installation instructions.

Please Note! Doors must be installed square, level and plumb and on a flat surface (without twist or warp). We also recommend that all

components be nished prior to installation. See our recommended nish maintenance instructions at www.jeld-wen.com/resources. Poor

installation or nish may result in denial of warranty claims for operational or performance problems.

Note to Installer: Provide a copy of these instructions to the building owner. By installing this product, you acknowledge the terms and

conditions of the limited warranty as part of the terms of the sale.
