How to Guide

Because panel removal can be awkward and could cause
physical injury or product damage, we recommend the help of
additionalpeople.
Operating Panel
Some inswing doors will have removable hinge pins. Some (typically
outswing hinges only) may have a set screw on the barrel that will have to
be loosened to allow the pin to come out. Standard hinges have the set
screw in the center of the barrel, outswing adjustable hinges have the set
screw on the bottom. If the hinge is on an outswing door and does not
have a set screw, the pin is not removable and the hinges will need to be
removed to remove the panel.
1. Open panel about
half way and hold
steady with the help
of a second person.
2. With a small
screwdriver or nail
punch and hammer,
drive hinge pin from
bottom hinge, then
top hinge.
3. For French View
outswing, remove
center hinge by
removing screws
from hinge on door panel.
4. For all other door models, remove hinge pin from center hinge, then
remove panel.
5. To install panel, perform removal steps in reverse.

Note! Hardware styles have changed over the years and may vary
slightly from the illustrations in this document.
Hardware Types
• Metal hardware offers functionality, aesthetic appeal and resistance to
corrosion but is not totally corrosion proof.
• Plastic hardware offers high resistance to the elements however,
over time it can deteriorate from ultraviolet light, heat, cold, and
chemicalexposure.
• Brass hardware has a special protective lm to reduce/eliminate
polishing and requires special care.
• See our complete Care and Maintenance document at
www.jeld-wen.com for more information on cleaning and
lubricatinghardware.
Screw hole repair and hardware alignment, or realignment, are common
tasks for any hardware replacement component. Follow these instructions
if screw holes become stripped and/or if hardware no longer functions
properly due to misalignment.
Screw Hole Repair
1. Cut wooden toothpicks or appropriate sized wood dowel to t screw
hole just below wood surface.
2. Fill screw hole with wood glue.
3. Insert toothpicks or dowel; let dry.
4. Fill to surface with wood putty; let dry.
5. Sand smooth and renish; let dry.
6. Drill new pilot hole.
Hardware Alignment
Misalignment can happen if screws have become stripped and cannot be
tightened. This alignment will create new screw holes.
1. Remove hardware.
2. Repair screw holes according to the procedure above.
3. Mark new screw holes as follows:
• Lay hardware in position and hold in place.
• If replacing a lock, turn latch to lock position to engage keeper.
• Mark new screw locations through screw holes.
• Remove hardware and set aside.
4. Drill pilot holes with 1/16" drill bit at new marked screw hole positions
no deeper than screw length.
5. Install hardware.
6. Test operation; if not operating properly, call us for assistance.
Blinds Between the Glass
For easiest operation, keep the slats in a fully open position
whileoperating.
Adjustments
1. If the operator comes off of the track, hold the operator at a sharp
angle to the glass and reinsert the two legs under the track opening.
2. Re-couple the operator magnets.
Re-Couple Operator Magnets
1. Slide the operator past the half-way engagement point until the
rstclick.
2. Continue to the full engagement point until the second click.
