Hold the hinge-side (A) jamb in place,
making sure the hinge pins face up
and the top end of the jamb is butted
up against the top jamb. Use a level
to ensure the jamb remains plumb and
mark through the holes A, B, C & D.
Drill four 1/8" holes 3/4" deep through
the marks you made on the frame. Put
the hinge-side jamb back in place and
mount it using four of the supplied
#8 x 1-1/4" mounting screws (H). Use
a level to ensure the hinge-side jamb
remains plumb as you install each screw
and adjust as needed.
