3SETTING AND FASTENING THE DOOR (CONTINUED)
F.Doors with vertical mullions only: Fasten the door sill to the rough opening sill using one of the following screw types and locations.
a.Doors using aluminum sill support: Drill a 5/32" diameter hole 1" from each of the mulled door jambs through the door sill and the aluminum sill support. Place a bead of sealant in each hole and install a #10 x 3/4" self tapping flat head screw in each hole.

b.Doors on concrete: Drill a 5/32" diameter hole 1" from each of the mulled door jambs through the door sill and into the concrete floor. Place a bead of sealant in
each hole and install a 3/16" x
Note: The hole may be placed on either side of the track. Place the hole in the best location to prevent the concrete from breaking at the screw location.
c.Doors with wood floors or wood sill supports: Drill a 5/32" diameter hole 1" from each of the mulled door jambs through the door sill. Place a bead of sealant in each hole and install a #10 x
4INTEGRATING THE DOOR TO THE WATER RESISTIVE BARRIER
A. Apply side flashing tape. Cut two pieces of flashing tape
4" longer than the frame height of the door. Apply one 4A" piece to each side over the nailing fin and onto the water resistive barrier. The tape should extend 2" above the
top of the door and 2" below the bottom of the door. Press the tape down firmly.

B. Apply top flashing tape. Cut |
|
|
a piece of flashing tape long |
|
|
enough to go across the top of |
|
|
the door and extend at least 1" |
|
|
past the side flashing tape on |
|
|
both sides. Apply the tape over | 4B# |
|
the top nailing fin as shown. |
| |
|
| |
Note: The tape should cover |
| |
the entire nailing fin, but not |
|
|
extend onto the door frame. The |
|
|
top flashing tape must overlap the side |
|
flashing tape to prevent water from getting behind it.

D. Apply flashing tape to diagonal cuts. Cut pieces of
flashing tape at least 1" longer than the diagonal cuts 4D% in the water resistive barrier. Apply the tape covering
the entire diagonal cut in the water resistive barrier at
both upper corners of the door.
Note: Be sure to overlap the top corners.
