Phantom Tech Viewpoint VI0508 - Manual (Page 4)

Getting to Know the
Viewpoint Screen
Before beginning, become familiar with the
Viewpoint Screen and the door on which it
will be installed.
The Viewpoint Screen accommodates both
in-swing and out-swing doors. In-swing
doors open to the inside of the home and
require the Viewpoint Screen to be
installed on the outside of the home.
Out-swing doors open to the outside of the
home and require the Viewpoint Screen
to be installed on the inside of the home.
Does the Viewpoint Screen fit the
Door Opening?
Make sure that the Viewpoint Screen
will fit the door. This application
will accommodate an opening of
up to 36” (914 mm) wide, and between
76 9/16” (1,947 mm) and 80 9/16”
(2,047 mm) high. If the door opening is
larger than that, the Viewpoint Screen can
still be installed by attaching a filler strip
under the door frame to reduce the height of
the door opening. Refer to page 6 for details.
NOTE: The Viewpoint Screen can only be
shortened by 4” (100 mm) to a minimum
height of 76 9/16” (1,947 mm). If the door
opening is smaller than this, the Viewpoint
Screen will not accomodate the door.

Is the Door Opening Square?
For the Viewpoint Screen to operate
effectively, the door opening must be
perfectly square. Using a Carpenter
Square, check to ensure that the door
frame is square. If not, use shims to
bring the door frame to square before
beginning installation.
Is there enough Mounting Surface?
The Viewpoint Screen is a recess
mount screen that installs on the
inside surface of the door frame.
A minimum Mounting Surface of
1 3/4” (45 mm) is required. This
Mounting Surface must be flat and
flush, and at a right angle (90˚)
to the door.
