3INTEGRATING THE DOOR TO THE BUILDING FELT

Note: The flashing tape must be applied approximately 1/2" onto the frame cladding at the jambs and head. Pre-folding the tape at 1/2" before removing the paper backing will make it easier to apply the tape correctly. If the siding is less than 1/2" thick, adjust the dimension of the fold so the exterior sealant line will cover the exterior edge of the tape.
