Ex kits only. All others begin
with step 3.
1. position a jamb liner

(without brackets) against
the side jamb. measure
the gap between the top
of the jamb liner and
the head jamb. If that
distance is 3/8", install the
optional head jamb fi ller.
If the gap is less than 3/8",
omit the head jamb fi ller.

2. If the head jamb fi ller

is needed, position in
place with the front
weatherstrip fl ange facing
the exterior of the house.
Secure with fi nishing
nails.

3. position one jamb liner

bracket next to the
exterior blind stop and
approximately 4" down
from the head jamb as
shown. Secure the bracket
with the common nails
included in the kit. Secure
a second jamb liner
bracket 4" above the sill.
Repeat on the other side
of the frame.

4. Secure the remaining

brackets, using half the
brackets on the left side
and half on the right side,
and spacing them evenly
between the upper and lower brackets.

5. For Tradition plus kits,

install three black
snubbers on the back of
each jamb liner in the
locations shown. Install
one snubber at the
bottom and one at the
middle of the interior
channel. Install the third
snubber at the top of the
exterior channel.

6. Install a chimney plug or

adhesive gasket (remove
paper backing fi rst) onto
the top of each jamb liner
in the position shown.

7. Starting from the top,

press a jamb liner into
the brackets until it snaps
into place. Install the
other jamb liner the same
way. If there is integral
weatherstrip on the
exterior of the jamb liner,
it should lay over the
exterior stop, not tucked
behind it.

Note!

If jamb liners do not snap into place easily, the prongs on the

brackets may be adjusted by gently bending them with a screwdriver
or putty knife.
