Make Final Adjustments - If Necessary
1. Doors will need adjusting after assembly at the job site. Slide doors into
the closed position and engage the ush bolt handles down to secure
the doors. Check for an approximate 3/16" gap between the panels
and the head track and an approximate 3/8" gap between the panels
and the silltrack.
2. Upper and lower Wall Pivot Hinges adjust horizontally using a #3 Phillips
head screwdriver. Clockwise rotations will move panel away from the
jamb; counterclockwise moves the panel toward the jamb. Close panel
and adjust until equal spacing exists between the panels and jambs.
3. Lower Wall Pivot Hinge and Directional Carrier Sets adjust vertically.
Insert a at head screwdriver into the slot to release the spring and turn
the collar with a 14 mm open ended wrench. One rotation will provide
approximately 1/16" adjustment. Rotation to the right will raise the
panel and rotation to the left will lower the panel. Adjust as necessary
to achieve a consistent reveal across theopening.
4. Open and close the door system to check for smooth operation.
Finish Installation
1. Press the sill track seal into place in the exterior groove asshown.
2. On the interior side jambs and head, create a continuous air seal
between the rough opening and the door frame with backer rod and
sealant or low expansion foam. Allow the foam to cure and cut ush
with a sharp knife. Make sure the foam cuts cleanly and doesn’ttear.
3. On the exterior side jambs and head, seal between the rough opening
and the door frame with backer rod and sealant.
4. Install a drip cap if required or desired. Fold the building wrap
(previously taped up) down over the drip cap and seal the cut ends with
self-adhered ashing or building wrap tape.
