Phantom Tech QC03-0903R Understanding the Application of the Screen, Is the Door Opening Square?

Understanding the Application of the Screen

Is there enough Mounting Surface for the Unseen?

The screen installs on the outside surface of the door trim (brick mold). A minumum of 11/16" (17 mm) is required. See Mounting Surface as indicated in diagram A .

Is the Door Opening Square?

For the screen to operate effectively, the door opening must be perfectly square. Using a Carpenter Square, check to ensure that the door frame or mounting surface is square. If not, use shims to bring the door frame or mounting surface to square before beginning installation. If shimming the door frame or mounting surface is not possible, apply shims beneath the screen components to ensure a plumb, level and square installation.

Is this screen being installed on a Right Hinged Door?

Finally, make sure the correct model has been purchased! The screen in this package is configured for a “RIGHT” hinged door. The hinges should be on the right side and the door knob should be on the left. This screen is designed to be installed on in-swing doors only. This requires the screen to be installed on the outside of the building.
