Vinyl or wood based siding material exteriors:
•
If possible, use a heavy duty die-cast aluminum 2 gang
box if it can be securely mounted to the interior framing. If
this is not possible then it is recommended that you use a
heavy duty metal 2 gang box that can be securely
mounted to the interior framing of the home.
• To ensure the 2 gang box that will be used to house the Door Unit is
roughed in correctly, communication with the building contractor
who is responsible for the exterior finish of the home is highly
recommended.
Brick or other cement-based material exteriors:
•
The masonry contractor must be provided with specific
instructions as to how the 2 gang box should be installed
including location, correct positioning, and proper depth.
• If possible, clearly mark this information on the home's
exterior insulation board or vapor barrier material to serve
as a reminder to the mason.
• The correct positioning of the 2 gang box may not be
obvious to the masonry contractor. Ensure that the
masonry contractor knows which edge of the box is up
and which edge is down so that the Door Unit can be
installed in the correct vertical position.
• The 2 gang box should be installed by the masonry
contractor so that it protrudes slightly from the face of the
brick. The box should protrude no less than 1/8" but no
more than 1/4" from the face of the brick.
Vinyl or wood based siding material exteriors:
•
The 2 gang box can be roughed in to the exterior of the
home by first cutting an opening through the exterior base
material of the home that is slightly larger than your 2
gang box.
• The 2 gang box should then be securely mounted to the
interior framing of the exterior wall and protrudes through
the exterior wall at a depth that will need to be determined
based on the type of siding that will finish the outside of
the wall.
• Ideally, you would want the siding contractor to use
flashing and make use of J-channel around the perimeter
of the Door Unit and 2 gang box to provide an attractive
and weatherproof siding installation. Siding contractors
should use flashing and J-channel around the perimeter
of the Door Unit just as they would with a window.
• Communication with the siding contractor is highly
recommended to ensure a smooth installation.
• ONE Cat 5e run is required to operate the Door Unit.

• Untwist cable pairs but be sure to leave 1/2" twist in the pairs
between the punchdown block and the start of the cable insulation
(see Figure 8).
• As shown in the diagram, the Cat 5e cable must be terminated so
that the cable is routed to the punchdown block so that the unit can
be installed into a standard gang box while maintaining proper bend
radius.
• Following T568A wiring color code, place the pairs firmly into their
appropriate positions on the punchdown block. Ensure that the
individual conductors are seated tightly enough to allow you to
punch them down without having to hold them in place.
• Using a punchdown tool with a 110 style cutting blade, punch down
each conductor firmly enough to allow any excess conductor to be
cut away by the blade.
• Insert the Patio Unit and the Cat e5 cable into the 2 gang box and
secure the unit to the box using the 4 included screws.
5. Door Unit(s)
The procedure to trim-out the Door Unit(s) is as follows:
•
Make sure that the included weather proofing gasket is placed over
the Door Unit circuit board and speaker before terminating the Cat
5e cable (see Figure 9).
• Locate the Cat 5e cable in the roughed in 2 gang box that you
labeled as "Door Unit X" where X is the door unit number.
• Strip back approximately 2" of insulation from the Cat 5e cable.
