STEP 3
INSTALLING MOUNTING ANGLES AND
GUIDES
Obtain the appropriate Bolt Line (BL) measurement from the chart below.
Use Opening Width listed on packing
slip. Any variation between the actual opening width and the width listed on the packing slip is to be ignored.
Use BL measurement to locate wall mounting angle for one
jamb only. Second angle will be located using Angle Face to
Angle Face measurement.
Using the BL measurement, loosely
clamp the right hand wall angle to the
right hand jamb. Position the wall angle
such that the BL measurement falls near
the center of the slots. Adjust the wall
angle so that it is level and tighten the
clamp. Install wall angle fasteners in the
centers of the top and bottom slots only
and tighten.
Select the appropriate Angle Face to
Angle Face equation from the chart
above. Add the
opening width listed on
the packing slip to obtain the Angle
Face to Angle Face measurement. Use
this measurement to locate the left hand
wall angle on the left hand jamb and clamp in place. Install the top and bottom bolts in the wall angle. Verify that
both wall angles are level and double check the angle to angle measurement at the top, middle, and bottom to ensure
that the wall angles are properly located. Using a string and a level, ensure that the mounting angles are parallel to
each other, shimming if necessary, to achieve both vertical and horizontal leveling. Now install the remaining bolts
in both wall angles.
Angle Face to Angle Face measurement
must be held to ensure proper door
operation and resistance to windload.
Use of any other fasteners than those
provided must be approved by
manufacturer or building authority and
cannot be of lesser diameter or grade.
Align the guide slots with the slots in the wall angles and fasten guides with the interior
windlock return towards the door jamb using the 5/16-18 x 5/8” truss head bolts,
washers, and flange nuts. Slide guides to set the “H” dimension as shown above at 1-3/4”
prior to tightening the guide fasteners.
