Adjustments and Final Assembly
3.1 Check the door for correct vertical position by making sure that the door seals against
the top of the jamb and also at the floor in the closed position. If the door has been
installed too high or too low, slightly loosen the setscrew in the cam roller. Move the
cam roller lower or higher on the shaft to position the door so that a full seal is attained,
then retighten the setscrew at the new position.
3.2
Check the door for correct centering in the closed position by making sure the door is
perfectly parallel with the wall when it is in the closed position. If the door does not
center in the closed position, slightly loosen the setscrew in the cam roller. Rotate the
cam roller on the shaft to position the door so that it will center properly (make sure
to mark the vertical position of the cam roller on the shaft so that the vertical alignment
will not be altered), then retighten the setscrew at the new position.
3.3
Check doors to make sure they swing free both ways with minimal effort and that they
return to center each time. If the doors do not swing freely or return to center, the
shaft is misaligned in either the top cam bearing or the bottom bearing or both. Check
the door opening for square and plumb. Check the centerline on the jamb. The top
cam bearing and the bottom bearing have oversized mounting holes that can be
utilized to accommodate for out of square or out of plumb door openings.

3.4 Attach header channel to center of top jamb with screws provided. Leave the header
seal inserted in the header channel during installation.
3.5 After all the alignment adjustments have been made, the cam roller is ready for
permanent attachment to the top shaft. Make sure the setscrew is securely attached to
the top shaft. Using the 1/4” hole that is directly under the setscrew on the cam roller,
drill a 1/4” diameter hole through the shaft and through the other side of the cam
roller. Attach the cam roller to the top shaft with the 1/4”x20 x 2” bolt and jamb nut.
3.6 Install the top hinge covers (the top hinge covers have two small aluminum installation
brackets riveted to the colored plastic). Place the top hinge cover over the top cam
bearing in the top corner of the door. Using the holes in the installation brackets as a
guide, mark the hole locations on the top jamb and drill a 5/32” hole at each location.
Attach the top hinge covers using the #8x1/2” slot head screws.
3.7 Install the bottom hinge covers (the bottom hinge covers have 2 slots punched along
each edge of the colored plastic). Place the bottom hinge covers over the bottom
bearing and attach them using the #8x1/2” screws and the holes that are pre drilled
into the sides of the bottom bearing.
