INSTALL NEW GLASS INSERT
Note! The exterior frame is attached to the glass and does not have
holes; the interior frame has screw holes.
1. Remove packaging materials from the new insert. If shipping screws
are holding the unit together, separate the interior and exterior
frames by loosening screws. Leave the screws in the interior frame
and set aside. Additional screws are provided to complete assembly.
2. Place the lower
portion of the exterior
frame and glass on
the lower edge of
the door opening.
Horizontally center
the frame and glass
into the opening
and tilt up until the
frame is ush against
thedoor.
3. Position the interior
frame in the opening
using the press t
alignment pins located
on the frame.
4. Secure the frame
halves together by
driving the screws
through the interior
frame and into
the exterior frame
with a Phillips head
screwdriver until snug.
Power drivers can be
used on the lowest
torque setting. Screws
must then be checked with a hand screwdriver.
5. Finishing instructions are provided on the label attached to the door
glass. Please read this BEFORE removing the label.
6. Insert the provided screw hole plugs over all exposed screw heads.
7. Clean glass with mild soap and water.
REMOVE OLD GLASS INSERT
Note! Handling glass can be dangerous. Glass inserts can be heavy and
awkward. Use additional help and always wear protective clothing.
1. If the old insert has
screw plugs over the
screw heads in the
interior frame, drive a
drywall screw into the
screw plug until it is
loose from the hole.
Remove all remaining
screw plugs in the
samemanner.
2. Support the glass
insert while removing
screws to keep it
from falling. Remove
the screws from the
interior frame from
the bottom up.
3. When all the screws
are removed, slide
the edge of a putty
knife between a top
corner of the interior
frame and door. Work
around the entire
perimeter until the
interior frame isloose.
4. Repeat this procedure
around the exterior
frame. Remove the
glass insert and
set aside in a safe
location.
5. Clean both sides of the door where the new glass insert will contact
the panel with a clean rag dampened with paint thinner. Remove all
the old weatherstrip and then wipe again with a clean rag.
ASTRAGAL WEATHERSTRIP
1. Open active door all
the way.
2. Locate the accessible
weatherstrip.
3. Grip weatherstrip and
gently pull out of kerf.
4. Cut new weatherstrip
to length.
5. Work the attachment
barb into the kerf
from one end to
theother.
FOAM WEDGES
The foam wedges are
used to complete the
weatherstrip seal, at
each bottom corner
of the operating
door slab(s). Doors
are provided with
one of two types of
wedges. One has an
up-turned L-shaped leg
and the other doesn't
(shown). Contact us
for the appropriate
replacement. For both
types, the thin edge
faces the edge of the
door as it swings closed.
Apply a bead of sealant
(remove old sealant rst
if necessary) at the intersection of the jambs, brickmoulds, thresholds
and oor as shown.
