STEP 7A –– Door Installation with Integral Hinge
Door Installation with Integral Hinge
A. Review this detail and read the instructions before you begin. Be
certain that you have all the correct parts.
B. Turn the door over so the bottom is “face up”. The bottom has a
metal heat sink. Insert the female half of the 2-piece cam into the
bottom hole of the door. With a 1/8” drill bit, drill a 1/8” hole
through the edge of the door into the nylon cam. Screw the
setscrew to lock the cam in place.
C. Insert the male half of the 2-piece cam into the hole at the bottom
of the pilaster. DO NOT drill the setscrew yet.
D. Turn the door right side up. Insert the coil spring into the hole at
the top of the door with the nylon top pin on top of the spring.
E. Position the door on the pilaster. Mate the lower 2-piece cams
together. Press down on the top pin and align it with the upper
hole of the pilaster. Release the top pin so that it springs up into
the hole thus securing the door position.
F. Position the door at the desired degree (rest position). Drill
through the side of the pilaster 1” below the door (see detail “B”
above) for the setscrew.

Hinge
A. Lay the hinge on the pilaster as shown. Use it as a template to
locate the correct position of the holes. For Multi-Cam hinges on a
post, see separate detail.
B. Drill a ¼” diameter clearance hole using the top hole only of the
hinge as a guide. Drill completely through the pilaster.
C. Repeat previous step for the bottom hole in the hinge. Then remove
the hinge.
D. With the 2 clearance holes on top and bottom now drilled, install
the hinge in its correct position. Fasten the hinge onto the
pilaster with thru-bolts through the top and bottom holes.
E. Use a 5/32” drill bit to drill a blind hole through the 4 holes
remaining in the hinge leaf. Fasten with #14 x 5/8” sheet metal
screws onto the pilaster. DO NOT drill through the pilaster.
F. The door is already prepared with 2 pre-drilled holes. Use these
holes to locate and align with the top and bottom holes in the
hinge. Repeat the previous 2 steps.
