Install bottom bar
5
Place bottom bar (D) beneath the side jambs. Both ends should
reach the outer edge of the side jambs. Hold in place and use
5/32" drill bit to pre-drill holes for mounting screws. Attach bottom
bar to each side jamb using the provided screws (H).
Install threshold plate

6e

6f
The contour of door framing varies (6a) making it necessary to cut the threshold plate (E) to t. We recommend cutting a cardboard template to
t the opening rst to avoid incorrectly cutting the threshold plate.
Install bug sweep
7
Open the door. Slip the multi-blade bug sweep (F) onto the bottom of the door. Hold sweep in place
and close the door. Allow the sweep to fall and set rested on the threshold plate (E).
Note: Be sure there is not a gap between the sweep and the threshold plate, and that the sweep is
centered on the bottom of the door.
Once you have created a good tting template, use the template to mark the threshold plate (6e). Using tin-snips (or hacksaw) cut threshold
plate to match the shape of template (6f). Postition threshold plate to extend across the bottom bar and into the existing threshold. Use 9/64"
drill bit to pre-drill holes for mounting screws. Attach threshold plate to existing threshold using the provided screws (I).
Cut a piece of cardboard 36" x 6" (same size as top of threshold plate). Lay template on top of the bottom bar and push into existing threshold
as far as it will go. Using a straight edge, mark the template at the various widths of your existing molding and trim, at both ends (6b). Move
template so that front edge is ush to the front edge of bottom bar (it is okay to bend to allow to t the shortest width between your molding and
trim). Mark at the various corners of your existing molding and trim (6c). Using a box knife cut template to shape of molding and trim revealed by
the markings (6d). Test t the template. (It should lay across the bottom bar, with the front edge ush with the front edge of the bottom bar and t
in and around the corners of the existing molding and trim.)
Use 9/64" drill bit to pre-drill the two outer holes for mounting screws. Attach the sweep to the bot-
tom of the door, by the two outer holes, using the provided screws (J). Test that the door opens and
closes freely. If not, loosen the screws and make necessary adjustments. Retighten screws and test
again. Repeat until successful. Pre-drill remaining holes and install the rest of the provided screws (J).
Install screen or glass insert

8c
Once you have installed your
door, you are ready to install your
choice of screen or glass insert.
We recommend you close the
security door and install your
insert from the inside. This will
keep the door in place while you
proceed with your installation.
Use the provided hardware
(K) & (M) to install screen clips
(L) into the pre-tapped holes
around the center design (8a).
See illustration (8b) for order of
hardware. Do not tighten, at this
time. Clip must be free to turn
under the screw.
Fit screens into the door, so that
the stepped-side of the screen
faces the door (8b).
Turn each of the clips over the
screen frame (8c), and tighten
the screws to secure the clips in
place.
