All BCF, BRF, CST-38 and CPF-38 Series fireplaces have these lower and upper door mounting holes provided in the lower and upper front frame.

Step 3. Repeat this procedure for the opposite door assembly.

ADJUSTMENT FOR DOOR ALIGNMENT

The doors are properly adjusted when the top door trim is in a straight, level line and the gap between the doors is even at the top and bot- tom. If adjustments are required, grasp the door handle and loosen the lower door hinge pin using a 3/8" open end wrench*. Slide the door panel on the hinge pin until the gap be- tween the upper door trim and upper frame is even. Retighten the lower door hinge pin*. Repeat this procedure for the opposite door if needed.

*Note: Upper door hinge pins can also be loosened for adjustment purposes; however, it is easier to loosen lower pins.
