INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3. NOTE: Fiberglass insulation may irritate your
skin. Always wear gloves when handling.
The berglass insulation provided is heat
resistant. Your particular model may leave some
of the insulation exposed to the inside of the
replace. This is normal and should not be of
concern. This berglass is designed to protect
the metal nish of your frame. Both the 2” and 3”
Fiberglass Pieces (J & K) will separate into three
strips each by peeling them from one end as
shown in Figure 3.
Measure all dimensions of the back channels
on your Glass Door. Cut insulation to length with
scissors and place in back top and back side
channels as illustrated.
NOTE: The insulation does not need to ll the
channels to their full depth. Should you prefer
additional insulation, you may purchase it from
your local home improvement center.
4. The lintel bar is the “L” shaped angle iron that
supports the bricks along the top of the fireplace
opening. This bar is built into your masonry
fireplace when originally constructed. Measure
the width of the lintel bar. If the lintel bar is
less than 3” or more than 4” wide, refer to the
Alternative Mounting Method Instructions
(Page 8) and skip steps 4-6 in this section.
To determine the proper bracket assembly for
your replace, measure the distance from the
bottom of the Lintel Bar to the bottom of the
replace. Use this measurement to determine
where the Lintel Bar will line up with the slotted
brackets on the back of your frame. If the
measurement reaches the top of the slotted
brackets, follow Bracket Assembly A. If the
measurement is not the same height as the
slotted brackets, follow Bracket Assembly B.
Assemble the Key Bracket (E) to the lintel clamp
(D) with the 1/4-20 x 1/4” Machine Screw (A).
Do not tighten. Thread 1/4-20 x 2” Thumbscrew
(C) into lintel clamp. Do not tighten.
