NOTE: Obscure glass doors should be
installed with the rough surface of the glass to the
exterior of the unit. Silk Screened or etched glass
doors should be installed with the patterned surface
to the inside.
Determine which end of the door will be the bottom.
Using a mallet or a hammer and wood block (never
a hammer alone), carefully drive the bottom rail
over the bottom edge of the glass and vinyl, snug
to the factory installed vertical rail. Bottom rail
should be set back from the strike edge of the door.
Trim the excess vinyl even with the ends of the
rails.
Press the hinge jamb/door panel assembly
[*A] and strike jamb [*B] (with magnetic strip)
over the wall jamb and/or framing posts. Refer to

instruction sheet for the
proper handing of the door.
Adjust the door panel assembly so there is 1/4"
clearance between the strike jamb and the strike
edge of the glass door panel in the closed position.
Mark the location of the hinge jamb on the wall
jamb (or post).
NOTE: The magnetic strip on the strike jamb
must face the exterior and the door panel must
open outward.
Snap both fillers [*C] into the curb and header
between the hinge and strike jambs with the
raised lips to the exterior. Center the curb filler
between the hinge and strike jamb (use masking
tape to hold in position).
NOTE: The snap-in fillers should be exactly 7/16"
longer than the door panel width.
