Step 2: Installation Kit Assembly
1. Install the U-Channels in the uprights by engaging the “L” leg in the outside kedar groove of the uprights and rotating the
U-Channel into position.
2. Install the wall bases on either side of the door frame opening (with the back
lip facing toward the interior) so that the notch in the base engages the U-
Channel.
3. The distance between the ends of the wall bases should be equal to the
outer width of the door frame plus ½”.
4. Remove the pressure plates from both intermediate posts.
5. Remove the bolts and washers from the adapter forks and slide the vertical
portion of the fork inside the top of the post, but outward of the spacer tube
inside the post. DO NOT insert the fork inside the spacer tube. RE-install
the washers and bolts in the vertical portion of the adapter fork and loosely
tighten so the fork is allowed to slide up and down.
6. Position the intermediate post on the wall bases to that the “Z” clip on the
bottom of the post engages the back lip of the wall base. Rotate the post
to a plum position while engage the “U” portion of the fork with the purlin
above. Slide the adapter fork up until the bottom of the “U” portion of the
fork contacts the bottom of the purlin. Snuggly tighten the bolts fastening the fork to the post. These bolts and the set-
screw in the fork must be securely tightened once the door and window panels are in position.
7. Repeat this procedure on the opposite side.
8. The installation kit is now ready to receive the sidelight panels and door/transom assembly.

Installing the Sidelights
1. The orientation of the
sidelight is correct when the
smaller pane of glass is on
the bottom and the glazing
stops are toward the interior
of the tent.
2. First engage side of the
sidelight panel in the U-
Channel and then swing
the opposite side into the
intermediate post. The
sidelight will drop in front of
the lip on the wall base and
sit on the horizontal portion
of the wall base when
contacting the intermediate
post.
3. Install rubber seal between
interior face of sidelight
panel and U-Channel.
4. Repeat this procedure for
the opposite sidelight.
