DOOR TYPE
Identify your sill and door type
Before you begin installing your new retractable screen door, it is important to
identify your sill and door type. If you have a short sill you may need to make some
modifications before proceeding to the installation steps.
Double Inswing
Screen assembly will mount
on outside of the home.
Double Outswing*
Screen assembly will mount
on inside of the home.
Handle Modifications
If you have an outswing door
you will need to move the
lock mechanism to the inside
of the home.
NOTE: This step should be
done after the retractable
screen is installed (see pg 9).
Additional steps required
When installing the screen
assembly make sure the
housing flange is installed onto
the door trim (or brickmold).

SILL TYPE
Short Sill
Sill stops short of the exterior trim.
• A filler board is not needed
when short sills have ground
directly underneath sill.
• A filler board is needed when
short sill sits on top of a step.
• Cut the filler board and place
under the trim so the top of the
filler board is even with the sill.
