Peel off the backing on the A

LUMAX

decal

[JJ] and apply to the inside surface of the header.

Trim the flap on the clear vinyl strike jamb seal to
clear the bottom door rail.

Inspect the pieces of black glazing vinyl,

and note the two different profiles. The smaller
shape [KK] is installed vertically and the larger
shape [LL] is installed horizontally. For struc-
tural strength and maximum water resistance,
these vinyls are designed to fit tightly between the
glass and framing. To speed installation, use
glass cleaner for lubrication and a small block of
wood to press the vinyl into place.

NOTE: These glazing vinyls have been pre-lubri-
cated with a water-based silicone compound. Wash
hands thoroughly after glazing and avoid contact
with eyes or mouth.

Cut eight pieces of the smaller vinyl [KK]

1" longer than the vertical opening (to prevent
gapping from shrinkage) and trim the ends on a
45° angle. Using the masking tape guides, center
the first glass panel [J] in the frame. Cut four
short (1" - 2") pieces of the small vinyl and press
into the jamb and post on each side to hold the
glass temporarily.

Take one of the long pieces of vinyl, and starting
on the outside exterior jamb, press each end into
the frame and work toward the middle. Be careful
not to stretch the vinyl. Install the other three
pieces in a similar fashion.

Repeat for the second glass panel.
