INSTALL NEW GLASS INSERT
Note! The exterior frame is attached to the glass and does not have
holes; the interior frame has screw holes.
1. Remove packaging materials from the new insert. If shipping screws
are holding the unit together, separate the interior and exterior
frames by loosening screws. Leave the screws in the interior frame
and set aside. Additional screws are provided to complete assembly.
2. Place the lower
portion of the
exterior frame
and glass on the
lower edge of the
door opening.
Horizontally center
the frame and glass
into the opening
and tilt up until the
frame is ush against
the door.
3. Position the interior
frame in the opening
using the press t
alignment pins
located on the frame.
4. Secure the frame
halves together by
driving the screws
through the interior
frame and into
the exterior frame
with a Phillips head
screwdriver until
snug. Power drivers can be used on the lowest torque setting. Screws
must then be checked with a hand screwdriver.

REMOVE OLD GLASS INSERT
Note! Handling glass can be dangerous. Glass inserts can be heavy and
awkward. Use additional help and always wear protective clothing.
1. If the old insert has
screw plugs over
the screw heads in
the interior frame,
drive a drywall screw
into the screw plug
until it is loose from
the hole. Remove
all remaining screw
plugs in the same
manner.
2. Support the glass
insert while removing
screws to keep it
from falling. Remove
the screws from the
interior frame from
the bottom up.
3. When all the screws
are removed, slide
the edge of a putty
knife between a top
corner of the interior
frame and door.
Work around the
entire perimeter until
the interior frame is
loose.
4. Repeat this procedure around the exterior frame. Remove the glass
insert and set aside in a safe location.
