Fig. 1
Step 1) General Notes
If a door opening is required, the doorframe must be installed first. The subsill must be
installed into the opening from the door framing, ensuring that the appropriate
clearance is available for the doorframe. All subsequent ladders must be installed from
the doorjamb out.

Note: Door jambs do not set on the subsill. Door
jambs must run through to the floor condition.
Step 2) Subsill Installation at Door Opening
Where a door opening is required, use the equation in Figure 1. Install the door frame
true and plumb in the opening as specified on the shop drawings or architectural
drawings. Install the subsill in the same manner as illustrated on pages 46 through 54.
End dams are not required at the door frame end of the subsill. The subsill should butt
up tight tot the door frame. See Figures on page 46 for subsill sealant requirements at
the door framing.
