Bookcase Installation
• Lift the bookcase into the opening.
Inswing bookcase: mounts from the inside of the opening
Outswing bookcase: mounts from the outside of the opening
• Set the hinge plate located on the bottom of the bookcase onto the pin of the hinge plate located on the
threshold/floor. Be sure the washers are in place.
• Align the upper hinge plate located on the top of the bookcase (hinge plate #2) with the upper hinge
plate located on the header (hinge plate #4). Use Locktite on the set screw threads to prevent the screws
from twisting loose over time.
• Inswing bookcase: screw the capscrew (with head) down through the hinge plate located on the header
and into the threaded hinge plate located on the top of the bookcase.
• Outswing bookcase: Using a ⅜” Allen drive, screw the set screw (no head) up through the access hole
that is located in the inside top of the bookcase, through the threaded hinge plate on the top of the
bookcase and into hinge plate located on the header.
• Verify the fit of the casing trim against the installed Invisidoor. A slight gap between the face frame of
the bookcase and casing trim is necessary to allow clearance for the bookcase to swing.
• Adjust hinges as needed by using slotted holes in hinge plates. Predrill holes for remaining screws for
each of the hinge plates. The provided 2¼” screws will be used to secure hinge plate #4 through the
upper jamb into the door header.
Casing Trim Installation
Inswing bookcase:
• Trim on both sides and the top of the door are mounted to the
wall and serve as a stop for the door. Avoid using trim that has
a narrow inside edge as it will not hold up as a stop. A ¾” thick
molding is recommended.
• It is also recommended that the trim overlay the face frame by
½”- ¾”.
• A wide variety of trim styles will work for the inswing mounted
Invisidoor. Corner blocks, mitered corners, or built out crowns can
all be used without interfering with the function of the door.
