Begin the installation of the door by checking the opening. It must be the same size as the door. Vertical jambs must be plumb and level with header. Side clearance, from edge of door to wall, must be a minimum of 3-1/2” (89mm) on each side.

IMPORTANT: Stainless STEEL OR PT 2000 Coated Lag SCREWS Must BE used When Installing CENTER Bearing Brackets, END Brackets, jamb Brackets, Operator Mounting/Support Brackets and DISCONNECT Brackets ON Treated Lumber (PRESERvaTIvE-TREaTED). Stainless STEEL OR PT 2000 Coated Lag SCREWS are NOT Necessary When Installing Products ON un-treated Lumber.

IMPORTANT: When installing 5/16” diameter lag screws using an electric drill/driver, the drill/driver’s clutch must be set to deliver no more than 200 in. lbs. of torque. Fastener failure could occur at a higher setting.

NOTE: It is recommended that 5/16” lag screws be pilot drilled using a 3/16” drill bit, prior to fastening.

If you are installing two lift handles on the stile,

you will need to measure from the edge of the

center stile to the center line mark. Divide that

measurement in half and draw a second and third

vertical line parallel to the previously made center

line mark.

Measure the height of the panel. Divide that

measurement in half and mark a horizontal line,

intersecting the vertical line(s) previously marked.

Measure up 3 7/8” from the intersecting line(s) and

mark another horizontal line.

Use the point(s) where the top horizontal line

intersects the vertical line(s) to locate the top hole of

the lift handle(s).

Using the lift handle as a template, mark this

location on the stile. Keeping the carriage handle

aligned on the vertical line, mark the lower carriage

handle hole on the stile.

Drill a 1/16” pilot hole, then fasten both lift handles
