Check framing for correct rough opening, general recommendation is 38-1/2” width X 82 height”. Check to see if the oor is level; some

shimming under one jamb may be required.

INSTALLATION

Steves Iron Doors are hand forged and individually

nished in an Old World Bronze nish. Minor

dierences in the door and nish are normal and

are expected to achieve their hand made look.

They are designed for installation in new construction

and retro-t in existing homes and can be installed in

both 2 “x 4” and 2” x 6” stud walls.

Step 1

Step 2

Check framing to ensure it will be secure enough so there is no movement in the door after installation (your door installation is only

as good as what you bolt it to). Note: For retro-t installations, it is necessary to remove the sheetrock behind all of the anges so the

bolts will not hinder the ability to install interior casing after the door is installed.

Step 3

Set the frame only (without door installed), centered in the rough opening. Check for plumb and level. Clamp the upper anges or

manually hold the door frame in place untill upper lag bolts are installed in the center of the large hole in each upper ange

(step 5 below).

Step 4

Pre-drill and install one 3/8” x 3” hex head lag bolt in the center of the large hole in each of the

bottom anges (ﬁgure 1). Hole is slotted to allow for some minor adjustments during later steps.

Then level, plumb and square the frame.

Step 5

Once level, plumb and square, pre-drill and install one 3/8” x 3” hex head lag bolt in the center

of the large hole in each of the upper anges. Install only one at this point allowing for

minor adjustments during later steps.

INSTALLATION

GUIDE

*Note: Level, plumb and square is a starting point only. Later adjustments are

normal when working with Iron Doors that may require a slight out-of-level,

plumb and square condition.

Hang the door panel by sliding the female hinge located on the door

panel over the male hinge pin on the frame. It may be helpful to hold

the door panel at a 90 degree position from the frame when

performing this step.

IRON DOOR INSTALLATION - CONTINUED - Step 7 Check and adjust to ensure the gap between frame and door are consistent; the door should be flush/even with jamb at the header, particularily on the strike side and the weatherstrip should make good contact around the entire perimeter. *Note: the above condition must be addressed now, not after the interior trim and exterior trim have been installed. These adjustments may require that the door be slightly out of plumb, level and square.
