STEP 3
INSTALLING MOUNTING ANGLES AND GUIDES
Obtain the appropriate Bolt Line (BL) measurement from the chart below. Use opening width listed on the
packing slip. Any width variation under 2 inches, between the actual opening width and the opening width listed on
the packing slip is to be ignored.
BL (STEEL) BL (MASONRY) ANGLE FACE TO ANGLE FACE
1-3/4” 4” OPENING WIDTH + 5-11/16”
Use BL measurement to locate wall mounting angle on right
hand jamb. Second angle will be located on left hand jamb
using Angle Face to Angle Face Measurement.

P #4.
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 wall angle holes. Use a level to
adjust the angle so that it is plumb.
Securely clamp in place. Install wall
angle fasteners in the top and bottom
holes only. Do not install fasteners
in the slots at the top of the wall
angle at this time. These fasteners
will be installed in STE
Obtain the Angle Face to Angle Face
measurement by adding 5-11/16” to
the opening width listed on the
packing slip. Use this measurement to locate the left hand wall angle on the left hand
jamb and clamp in place. Install bolts in the top and bottom holes in the wall angle. Verify
that both wall angles are plumb and parallel, by double checking the angle to angle
measurement at the top, middle, and bottom. Using a string and a level, ensure that the
mounting angles are level to each other, shimming if necessary, to achieve horizontal
level.
Starting at the bottom of each wall angle, install the remaining fasteners such that no
distance between two fasteners exceeds 12”. Do not install fasteners in the slots at the top
of the wall angle at this time. Fasteners will be installed in these in STEP #4.
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 holes 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. Verify that the “H” dimension is
set at 1” on each guide prior to tightening the guide fasteners.
