Make Final Adjustments - If Necessary
1. Doors will need adjusting after assembly at the job site. Slide doors into
the closed position and push the ush bolt handles down to secure.
Check for an approximate 3/16" gap between the panels and the head
track and an approximate 3/8" gap between the panels and the sill track.
2. Upper and lower Wall Pivot Hinges adjust horizontally using a #3 Phillips
head screwdriver. Clockwise rotations will move panel away from the
jamb; counterclockwise moves the panel toward the jamb. Close panel
and adjust until equal spacing exists between the panels and jambs.
3. Lower Wall Pivot Hinge and Directional Carrier Sets adjust vertically.
Insert a at head screwdriver into the slot to release the spring and turn
the collar with a 14 mm open ended wrench. One rotation will provide
approximately 1/16" adjustment. Right will raise and left will lower
the panel. Adjust as necessary to achieve a consistent reveal across the
opening.
4. Open and close the door system to check for smooth operation.
Finish Installation
1. Press the sill track seal
into place in the exterior
groove asshown.
2. On the interior side
jambs and head, create
a continuous air seal
between the rough
opening and the door
frame with backer rod
and sealant or low
expansion foam. Allow
the foam to fully cure and cut ush with a sharp knife. Make sure the
foam cuts cleanly and doesn’t tear.
3. On the exterior side jambs and head, seal between the rough opening
and the door frame with backer rod and sealant.
4. Install drip cap if required or desired. Fold the building wrap (previously
taped up) down over the drip cap and seal the cut ends with self-adhered
ashing or building wrap tape.
