Operation: Attach door (continued)
NOTE: The top and bottom hinge pins can be moved in or out to adjust the amount of pressure on the
rope gasket when the door is closed. They also balance the gasket pressure between the left and right
sides.
The top hinge pin can be moved left or right to adjust the centering of the rope gasket on the door frame
The following 4 tests check the door alignment and pressure.
4. The 1
st
test described in the photo below, gives a visual indication that the pressure will be
fairly even across the door. This is a approximate measurement but will give you a quick idea
if the hinge pins need to be adjusted.
5. The 2
nd
test confirms that the pressure is strong enough to provide a tight seal.
As you close the
door the gasket on
the hinge side
should start to
compress against
the left frame when
the cam is even
with the right side
frame.
Cut photocopy grade paper into
a 2-2.5”x 8-9” strip. Insert the
strip at top, close door and
attempt to remove. The paper
must be tightly held and cannot
be pulled out. The pressure must
be such that the paper will tear
before it slides out.
Repeat at side left, side right,
and bottom center.
