the door and extend at least 1"

past the side ﬂashing tape on

both sides. Apply the tape over

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.

C. Fold down top ﬂap of water resistive barrier.

D. Apply ﬂashing tape to diagonal cuts. Cut pieces of

ﬂashing tape at least 1" longer than the diagonal cuts

in the water resistive barrier. Apply the tape covering

SETTING AND FASTENING THE DOOR (CONTINUED)

4INTEGRATING THE DOOR TO THE

WATER RESISTIVE BARRIER

Caution: Ensure use of low expansion polyurethane window and door installation

foams and strictly follow the foam manufacturer’s recommendations for application.

Use of high expansive foams or improper application of the foam may cause the door

to bow and hinder operation.

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. This will allow room for

expansion of the foam and will minimize squeeze out.

Apply sealant across interior surface of shims to create

a continuous seal. For windows with jamb extensions

installed, ensure the foam is placed between the

window frame and the rough opening, not between the

jamb extension and the rough opening. Follow foam

manufacturer's instructions.

Note: It may be necessary to squeeze the end of the

tube with pliers to be able to insert into the space

between the window frame and the rough opening.

DO NOT completely ﬁll the space from the back of the

ﬁn to the interior face of the opening.

*OUFSJPS

"

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.

Note: If the optional Patio Door High Performance Panel Retainer was ordered with

the sliding door, install the high performance roller retainer before installing the

vent panel. Follow the instructions included with the parts.

"

TWO OR MORE PEOPLE WILL BE REQUIRED TO HANDLE THE PANEL SAFELY.

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.

Note: Be careful not to pinch your ﬁngers between the

two panels.

B. Install the handles. Follow the instructions included in the

hardware box.

C. Install the bumpers and retainer. Follow the instructions attached to the parts bag.

D. Check door operation. Open and close the door a few times to check for

proper operation.

Note: If there are any problems with the operation of the door, recheck shim locations

and adjust for plumb and square.

E. Install screen. Use the screen instructions included with the screen door.

Note: Application of closed cell foam backer rod

and sealant does not apply to stucco.

A. Insert closed cell foam backer rod into the space

around the door as deep as it will go. This should

provide at least a 1/2” clearance between the

backer rod and the exterior face of the door.

Note: Backer rod adds shape and depth for

the sealant line.

B. Apply a bead of high quality exterior grade

sealant to the entire perimeter of the door. On

doors where the bottom ﬁn has been removed,

insert sealant into the spaces between the bottom

of the door and the sill support and connect it to the

perimeter sealant.

Note: Refer to the sealant manufacturer’s label

to Conﬁrm compatibility with vinyl and the

adjoining building components and priming

requirements.

C. Shape, tool and clean excess sealant. When

ﬁnished, the sealant should be the shape of an

hourglass.

Note: This method creates a more ﬂexible sealant

line capable of expanding and contracting.

When applying siding, brick veneer or other exterior ﬁnish material, leave adequate

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

corresponding to your ﬁnish material.

Note: The sealant details shown are standard recommendations from the sealant

industry. Contact your sealant supplier for recommendations and instructions for these

and any other applications.
