INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
for Wood Patio Doors with Exterior Trim or Nailing Fin (JII026)
5
SEAL DOOR FRAME (EXCLUDING INTEGRAL NAIL FIN)
Interior side up, apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant where the
trim/fin meets the door frame.
APPLY DRIP CAP TO FINNED DOORS
1. With the exterior
face up, apply a
1/4" bead of silicone
across the header
as shown (do not
apply sealant to the
groove). Tap the
drip cap into the
groove with a wood
block.
6. Cut two pieces of
self-adhesive flashing
6" wide by the sill pan
width + 3" long.
a. For continuous
slab landings
only, cut out the
inside corner.
b. Adhere the pieces
of flashing to the
inside corners.
Stretch flashing as
needed to cover
corners and lay
flat.
7. Smooth gaps or
bubbles beneath self-
adhesive flashing with
a J-roller (remove and
replace if necessary).
8. Seal back corners of
sill pan with sealant.
9. For step-down
landings only, cut
plastic drain screen to
length of sill + 2" and
staple 1/2" below sill
edge. The drain screen
provides a path for air
to dry any incidental
moisture in the rough
opening.
End of Stud-Framed Wall Instructions continue with section 7 “PREPARE
PATIO DOOR.”
FOR RETROFIT INSTALLATIONS
After removing the old patio door, remove sufficient siding to expose at
least 9" of intact building wrap. If damaged, apply new building wrap
in a shiplap manner. Verify header and trimmer studs are structurally
sound.
PREPARE BUILDING WRAP
Verify these steps do not
void the building wrap
manufacturer’s warranty.
1. Trim building wrap
flush with the edges
of the rough opening.
2. At the head, slit
building wrap 6" at
45°. Tape up as shown.
3. Trim the sides
sufficiently to allow
the nailing fin to be
mounted against the
sheathing.
4. Apply spray adhesive/
primer to the sill pan
and surrounding area.
Follow manufacturer’s
instructions for
application methods.
5. Cut a piece of self-
adhesive flashing the
length of the sill and
apply over the sill pan
as shown. The bottom
of the sill pan should
be completely covered by the self-adhesive flashing. For step down
landings, fold flashing down as shown. For continuous slabs, trim
flush with rough opening.
