REPLACING A GLASS PANEL
1. After removing door assembly, place the door
assembly face down on a solid flat surface pro-
tected by cloth, cardboard, etc.
2. Carefully remove any broken or damaged glass
panel. Locate glass spring retainers which keep
the glass panels in the upper and lower trim chan-
nels. See Figure 28. Each panel of glass is kept in
place with four (4) glass spring retainers. If any of
the retainers are lost, order them when you order
replacement glass panels.
3. To install a glass panel in the trim channels, slide
the new glass panel in from the side.
4. Position the glass spring retainers approximately
1¼" in from each corner of the glass panel. See
Figure 28.
5. Gently compress (seat) the glass spring retainers
between the trim channels and glass. Use chan-
nellock pliers to easily seat the glass spring retain-
ers. Be careful when seating the spring retainers.
Make sure you do not bend the outside edges of
trim channels.
6. If you find the doors are not square after you have
replaced the glass panels, fold the door together
with the pivot and guide pins are on the bottom
next to the cloth or cardboard. The hinges are on
top. With the door in this position, gently press
the trim to line it up with the glass panels. See
Figure 29.
