NOTE: Install the horizontal jamb extensions so
their ends are flush with the ends of the
door frame (FIGURES 4 & 4A). Install hori-
zontal pieces first; then the vertical pieces.
2. Place jamb extension at a slight angle to door so

(FIGURE 5). Use a dead-blow hammer and block
of soft wood to tap along exposed edge of jamb
extension until the extension starts to seat itself in
the accessory groove.
3. Rotate jamb extension to a vertical position and
and use the dead-blow hammer and block of soft
wood to finish seating jamb extension’s snap-in-clip
into the door’s accessory groove. If necessary, tap
end of horizontal side jamb until it aligns with edge
of door frame (FIGURE 4A).
4. Apply the vertical jamb extension pieces between
the horizontal pieces following the techniques in
Steps 2 and 3 above.
When all pieces are attached, examine joint
between jamb extension and door frame to be sure
extensions are fully seated around the entire
perimeter.
5. Align the side of the vertical piece with the end of
the horizontal piece or use a small square to
square the vertical extension. While holding items
aligned with each other, drill 2 holes in the back of
the horizontal piece. Fasten the horizontal piece
to the vertical piece with two 1-1/4" #7 flat head
stainless Phillips head screws (FIGURE 6).
Repeat for each corner where vertical and
