Exterior

building. DO NOT slide the bottom of the

 

 

door into the opening. Sliding will damage

 

 

the sealant lines. Place the bottom of the door

 

 

at the bottom of the opening, then tilt the

 

 

top into position. Center the door between

 

 

the sides of the opening to allow clearance for

 

 

shimming, and insert one roofing nail in the

 

 

first hole from the corner on each end of the

 

 

top nailing fin. These are used to hold the door

 

 

in place while shimming it plumb and square.

 

 

D. Plumb and square door. Place shims at each

hinge and lock strike location between the

Exterior

door and the sides of the opening. Insert shims

 

 

in other locations as needed starting up 6”

 

 

from the bottom of the door to square it in the opening. Make sure that the reveal around the door(s) is equal. On double doors, make sure that panels are even across the bottom.

Note: On center latch double doors the lock strike will not be shimmed since it is located in the center of the unit. DO NOT over shim.

E.Check the interior reveal. Make sure the measurement from the interior face of the door to the interior face of the wall is equal at several points around the door.

Note: If the dimensions are not equal, check to make sure the fins are folded out to 90° at all points.
