INSTALLATION FOR TYPE A1 - A4

PARTS INCLUDED

1. Using a hammer, gently tap

pivot pins and guide into

the pre-drilled holes in the

locations shown.

2. Position overhead track

in the opening with the

open side down and the

bracket end toward the

jamb. Center the track, or

allow at least 3/4" between

the track and the front of

the opening. Secure the

track with the long pan

head screws through the

pre-drilled holes until snug.

If installing four panels

with two tracks, use a track

bracket between the two

ends in the center.

3. Position the lower bracket

on the fl oor in line with

overhead track. The

bottom of the bracket

must rest securely on the

fl oor or carpet. Fasten to

the jamb and fl oor with

a long fl at head screw
through each hole.

4. Place the upper pivot

pin in the hole in
the bracket and the
guide in the track (or
in the middle of the
slide guide between
the springs). Lift
the door assembly
slightly and drop the
lower pin into the
lower bracket slot.

5. Verify there is a 1/4"

clearance between
the pivot door and
the jamb. Four panel
assemblies should be snug at the middle. If adjustments are necessary,
door panels should be folded, in some cases removed, to gain access
to the adjustment screws.

To adjust horizontally:
6. At the top, loosen

the screw in the top
pivot bracket and
move toward or
away from the jamb
until there is 1/4"
clearance. Retighten.

7. At the bottom, lift

assembly and move
the adjusting wheel
toward or away from
the jamb until doors
are plumb with jamb,
then lower into
bracket.

To adjust vertically:
8. Lift assembly slightly

until the adjustment
wheel clears the
slot in the lower
bracket. Rotate the
adjustment wheel to
the left to raise doors
or to the right to
lower them. Be sure
the teeth lock fi rmly
into bracket when
fi nished.

9. Snap the snugger

or slide guide into
the lead door end of
the track as shown,
or in the center of
the track between
guides in a four door
installation. If using
a slide guide, seat

between the two
springs in the guide
as shown.
