Pella CLAD HINGED PATIO DOOR (INCLUDES STANDARD - Manual (Page 9)

K. Shim between the frame and the rough opening at the head
strike location and at every frame anchor hole location.
Remove and replace head strike screws with three #8 x 3”
corrosion resistant screws (provided) through the head strike,
door frame, shims and into the rough opening.
L. on each hinge, starting at the top, insert a
corrosion resistant screw (#12 x 2-1/2” for
out-swing or #8 x 3” for in-swing; provided)
into the open screw hole. Make sure the
screw passes through the shims and into the
structural framing.
M. check door operation. Open and close the
door to check for proper operation. Make sure
the door will latch correctly.
Note: If there are any problems with the
operation, check to confirm the door frame
is installed plumb, level and square. If the
reveal between the door panel(s) and frame is
not even, adjustments may be made:
Doors without adjustable hinges: Plastic
shims located behind the hinges may be
removed to adjust the reveal between the door
panel and door frame. Additional hinge shims
may be added if required.
adjustable Hinge non-adjustable Hinge
Note: Doors with adjustable hinges will have a (+)(-) on the door panel hinge leaf to
indicate possible adjustments and doors without adjustable hinges do not have adjustment
indicators.
Adjustable hinges are not designed to make up for incorrect installation of a door frame.
Before adjusting hinges, confirm the door is installed plumb, level and square.
N. For Doors with adjustable hinges: The hinges can be used to move the panel side to side by
moving all hinges in the same direction or the hinges can slightly rotate the panel by adjusting
the hinges in opposite directions. Use a T20 Torx wrench for Architect Series Doors or a 1/8”
Allen wrench for Designer Series doors to turn the center screw clockwise (+) to increase the
space between the hinge side of the frame and door panel. Turn the center screws counter-
clockwise (-) to decrease the space between the hinge side of the frame and the door panel .
Note: Do not adjust the hinge with the top and bottom screws loose; this could force the
hinge to adjust beyond its design capability which can cause the hinge to bind, damage the
hinge and/or pull out the screws. A ¾ turn of the center screw provides approximately 5/32”
adjustment.
O. on doors with a lock strike in the side, drill
a 1/8” diameter x 2” deep pilot hole into the
rough opening through the two pre-drilled
holes in the frame. One pre-drilled frame hole
is located in the center lock strike hole and the
other is the upper frame corner installation
hole approximately 8” from the top of the
door frame head. Insert a #8 x 3” screw
(provided) into the pilot hole making sure it
passes through the shim and into the rough
opening framing.
Note: This step does not apply to center
latching double doors.
