INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

for Wood Patio Doors without Exterior Trim or Nailing Fin (JII027)

SECURE PATIO DOOR

Note!

Apply sealant to screw threads before installing. Countersink for

wood putty or plug covers if desired. On the Custom Wood Inswing
door the screws will have to be driven through the exterior door jamb
on the stationary side.
1. Fasten patio door

using #10 x 3"
screws through the
shims in the jambs
and next to the
shims in the head:
6" from the corners
and 8" apart all the
way around the
patio door.

2. Secure each strike

plate through the
shims with #10 x 3"
screws.

STEPS 3 and 4 are for
swinging doors only.
3. Unlock the deadbolt

with a small
flathead screwdriver
and open doors.

4. Remove the spacer

button from the
bottom of the
panels, or pine
blocks from under aluminum sill.

STRUCTURALLY SECURE SILL (SWINGING DOORS ONLY)

Note!

Apply sealant to the threads of all screws, and, after installation,

cover the tops of all screws with sealant. Use previously removed
screws (if present) for wood subfloors or use 3/16" x 2 1/2" self-tapping
concrete screws for concrete.
1. For traditional

thresholds, secure
the threshold 6"
from each end
of each panel.
For adjustable
thresholds, also
place screws
through the
aluminum sill in
front of every other
adjustable threshold
screw.

2. For outswing patio

doors, replace the
screws on the sill
keeper with the #8
x 2 1/4" pan head
screws provided.

3. Fill any holes in the

sill with sealant.

Warning!

To avoid injury, use at least two people to install. Adequately

support the door until fully installed.
1. Apply a 3/8"

continuous bead
of sealant across
the sill pan back
dam and over the
flashing joints as
shown.

2. Tilt patio door into

the rough opening.
Make sure the back
of the door makes
solid contact with
the sealant.

SHIM THE JAMBS

Note!

Each location must be shimmed with two opposing shims. Secure

all shims with sealant.
1. From the interior,

shim the hinged
side jamb at every
hinge (swinging
doors). Shim the
latch jamb 6" from
the corners and at
the strike plate.

2. Shim all other jambs

6" from the corners
and at center.

3. Shim the head jamb

6" from the corners
of each panel and
at the strike plate
if present. Position
shims so that strike plate screws will penetrate shims.

4. Inspect the patio door for square, level, and plumb. Test for proper

operation (remove and reinstall if necessary).

5. For center hinge

patio doors only,
check for proper
reveal (clearance)
between the frame
and panels at the
side jambs and head
as shown.
