IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTE:

Please note that there are four holes or dots on the tem- plate to assist in positioning the template. These holes or dots should line up with the door mounting holes on the unit to ensure proper placement of the door after finishing mate- rials are installed.

Facing Thickness greater than 1-1/4”

For facing material greater than 1-1/4” a template should be constructed to provided the finishers with a guide so as to leave a 1/8” gap between the finishing materials and the door. See Figure 31 to construct the facing template.
