2 PREPARE THE DOOR FOR INSTALLATION

A. Remove the plastic wrap and cardboard packaging from the door.

Note: If screens, grilles or hardware are removed from the door at this time, label them

and store them in a protected area.

1 ROUGH OPENING PREPARATION (CONTINUED)

1/2"

E. Apply sill ashing tape #1. Cut a piece of ashing tape 12" longer

than the opening width. Apply at the bottom of the opening as

shown (1E) so it overhangs 1" to the exterior.

Note: e tape is cut 12" longer than the width of the opening so

that it will extend up each side approximately 6".

F. Tab the sill ashing tape and fold. Cut 1" wide tabs at each corner

(1/2" from each side of corner) (1F). Fold tape to the exterior and

press rmly to adhere it to the water resistive barrier.

G. Apply sill ashing tape #2. Cut a piece of ashing tape 12" longer

than the opening width. Apply at the bottom, overlapping tape #1 by

at least 1". Do not allow the tape to extend past the interior face of

the framing (1G).

Note: e ashing tape may not fully cover the framing members.

H. Attach the aluminum sill support or wood blocking to the exterior

of the box plate to support the edge of the door sill. Place the sill

support ush with the suboor.

B. Remove the shipping spacers. Carefully slide the movable panel halfway open and remove the

spacers from both the top and bottom of the movable panel.

TWO OR MORE PEOPLE WILL BE REQUIRED FOR THE FOLLOWING STEPS.

C. Remove the venting panel by lifting it out of the lower track and tilting the bottom of the

panel away from the door frame. en, lower the panel out of the top track. Carefully set

the panel aside.

Note: Assemble the OXXO frame per the instructions included with the door splice kit.

D. Fold out installation n to 90º. Be careful not to remove or tear

the n corners.

Note: If the n is not at 90°, the door will not line up correctly

on the interior.

3 SETTING AND FASTENING THE DOOR

A. Place three 3/8" beads of sealant. e rst bead should be

approximately 3/4" from the exterior of the rough opening, the

second 2-1/2" in from the rst bead of sealant. Place a third bead

of sealant in the groove of the sill support or 1/4" from the exterior

edge of the wood blocking.

TWO OR MORE PEOPLE WILL BE REQUIRED

FOR THE FOLLOWING STEPS.

shim

C. Plumb and square door. Insert shims, as necessary, between

the door and the sides of the rough opening starting up 6"

from the bottom of the door.

Note: DO NOT over shim.

Exterior

B. Insert the door from the exterior of the 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 equal clearance

for shimming and insert one roong nail in the

rst hole from the corner on each end of the top

nailing n. ese are used to hold the door in

place while shimming it plumb and square.

D. 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 ns are folded out to 90° at all points.

E. Secure the frame. Insert a 1" wide shim behind the pilot hole

at the lock strike(s). Insert a #8 x 2-1/2" screw (included in the

panel retainer and screw package) into the pilot hole making sure

it passes through the shim and into the rough opening.

Note: e weather strip must be pushed aside to reveal the pilot

hole. Be careful not to damage the weather strip. Architect Series® and

Designer Series® have 2 lock strikes, ProLine® has one lock strike.

F. Fasten the door to opening by driving 2" galvanized roong nails into each pre-punched

hole in the nailing n.

Note: Make sure the n corner is lying as at as possible.

ProLine Doors - Proceed to Step 4.

4 INTEGRATING THE DOOR TO THE

WATER RESISTIVE BARRIER

A. Apply side ashing tape. Cut two pieces of ashing tape 4"

longer than the frame height of the door. Apply one piece 1/2"

onto the frame cladding, over the nailing n and onto the water

resistive barrier on each side. e tape should extend 2" above the

top of the door and 2" below the bottom of the door. Press the

tape down rmly while folding down the excess tape at the top

and bottom of the door.

3 SETTING AND FASTENING THE DOOR (CONTINUED)

Exterior

G. Architect Series and Designer Series: Apply sealant and insert a #8 x 2-1/2" pan head screw

(provided) into each hole in the bottom of the door frame (shown above in gold). Another

option is to use 3/16’ x 1-3/4” concrete screws. Drill pilot holes per manufacturers instructions.

Note: e ashing 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.

B. Apply top ashing tape. Cut a piece of ashing tape long

enough to go across the top of the door and extend at least 1"

past the side ashing tape on both sides. Apply the tape 1/2"

onto the frame cladding, over the top nailing n as shown. Fold

the overlapping tape down, and press all tape down rmly.

Note: e top ashing tape must overlap the side ashing tape

to prevent water from getting behind it.

H. Architect Series and Designer Series: Position and secure the panel retainer by drilling pilot

holes through the remaining holes in the retainer into the sill support or wood blocking, then

apply sealant to the holes and insert a screw into each hole as specied below.

Aluminum sill support: 9/64" pilot holes, #10 x 3/4" at head thread cutting screws

(provided).

Wood blocking: 1/8" pilot holes, #10 x 2-1/2" at head wood screws (provided).

Masonry oor: 3/16” x 1-3/4” concrete screw. Pilot drill per screw manufacturer’s

recommendations.

I. Remove the factory installed screws from the retainer and repeat the process.

J. Architect Series and Designer Series: Drill a

3/16" clearance hole at each indentation in the

extrusion at the top (head) of the door frame

into the rough opening, stopping when the drill

is through the door frame. Apply sealant to

each hole, then insert a #8 x 3" pan head screw

into each hole.

pressure foams or improper application of the foam may cause the door frame to bow and

hinder operation.

5 REINSTALL THE SLIDING PANEL

TWO OR MORE PEOPLE WILL BE REQUIRED FOR THE FOLLOWING STEPS.

A. Insert door panel. From the exterior of the building, tilt the top

of the panel toward the door frame and insert the top of the door

panel into the top track. Move the bottom of the panel toward the

door frame until it is vertical. Gently set the panel down into the

bottom track.

ProLine only: Install bumpers and the panel retainer. Follow the

instructions included in the hardware box.

Note: Be careful not to pinch your ngers between the two panels. DO NOT close the sliding

panel until you have installed the hardware. e door may lock when closed.

Interior

Exterior

C. Fold down top ap of water resistive barrier (4C).

D. Apply ashing tape to diagonal cuts. Cut pieces of ashing

tape at least 1" longer than the diagonal cuts 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 (4D).

B. Install the handles and panel retainer. Follow the instructions included in the hardware

box. If the panel is not square to the door frame, adjust the bottom rollers by removing the

adjusting hole cover and inserting an 8" long #2 Phillips screwdriver into the hole. Turn

clockwise to raise the panel and counter-clockwise to lower the panel. Follow the instructions

included in the handle box for nal adjustments.

C. Install screen. Instructions for installing the screen are found in the screen door package.

A. Apply insulating foam sealant. From the interior, insert the

nozzle of the applicator approximately 1" deep into the space

between the door and the rough opening and apply a 1" deep

bead of foam. If using foam other than Great Stu ™ Window

and Door Insulating Foam Sealant by the Dow Chemical

Company, allow the foam to cure completely (usually 8 to 24

hours) before proceeding to the next step.

Note: DO NOT completely ll the space from the back of the

n to the interior face of the opening.

B. Check the door operation by opening and closing the door.

Note: If the door does not operate correctly, check to make sure it is still plumb, level, square

and that the sides are not bowed. If adjustments are required, remove the foam with a

serrated knife. Adjust the shims, and reapply the insulating foam sealant.

7 SEALING THE DOOR TO THE EXTERIOR WALL CLADDING

When applying siding, brick veneer or other exterior nish material, leave adequate space

between the door frame and the material for sealant. Refer to the illustration that corresponds

to your nish material.
