Notes:
 If NO door frame is required, proceed to Section 4B.
 If a door frame is required, the frame must be installed first. All subsequent ladders must be
installed from the door frame out.
 Door frame jambs do not set on sill flashing. Door jambs must run through to the floor condition.
Installation Notes:
 Before installing the sill
flashing, apply a bead of
silicone style sealant to the end
of the sill flashing.
 After Installation, tool excess
sealant into the joint where sill
flashing and door frame meet.
 At glazing pockets build-up
silicone sealant in pocket to the
tallest point of the sill flashing.
Tool the silicone sealant so a
watertight seal is made, and so
that water will be directed out of
the glazing pocket and into the
sill flashing.
 See Fig. #14 for sill flashing to
door frame sealant
requirements.
