Determining Your Build Out Area (continued)Touch up and lubricate
Paintable caulk & gun
Caulk (not included)
Caulk around the outside
of the security door jamb
frame, using paintable
caulk, and paint to the
desired color.
Touch-Up Paint
Shake the supplied touch-up paint (H)
vigorously for 2 minutes and paint the heads
of the one-way screws as indicated in the
diagram.
White Grease Lubricant (not included)
Use white grease to lubricate the hinges of
your new security door every six months.
Over time, airborne dust, dirt, and impurities can accumulate, which will cause visual defects to the door or window screen
and - if so equipped - the Meshtec screen, and - if not regularly and properly removed - can lead to further damage,
staining, and corrosion. Your cleaning schedule depends upon your environment:
Thoroughly wash the door frame and Meshtec screen - if so equipped - using a soft cloth, mild soap, and water. Do not use
strong solvent or abrasive based cleaners. Take care to avoid exposing handles, hinges, and lock(s) to excessive amounts
of water. Using a dry, soft cloth, remove any excess water when done. For products including a Meshtec screen, pay
particular attention to drying the screen to frame attachment area fully. Avoid using any sharp objects or abrasive materials
on the door frame or screen. Use white grease to lubricate the hinges at each cleaning.
