5001 SLIDING GLASS DOOR INSTALLATION
Figure A
Step 1. Measure the opening (see Figure A).
• Measure the width of the opening at the top, middle, and bottom of the opening and use
the smallest length measured to calculate your frame width.
• Then, measure the height of the opening along several places on the length of the opening
and use the smallest height to calculate your frame height.
• Make sure to allow extra clearance for shimming and sealant for building tolerances and
movement per project requirements.
NOTE: Frame size will be ½" smaller than the
smallest dimension both horizontal and vertical.
For proper operation and weeping, doors must be
installed plumb, level, and square.
