INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

for Swinging French and Patio Doors (JII105)

SECURE THE DOOR

Note! Vinyl door instructions later in this section. All others begin here.

Double door units are shown, however, the fastening instructions also

apply to triple, quad and sidelight French and patio door units.

For French Doors:

Remove a screw from

each hinge next to

the weatherstrip and

replace with one of the

provided #8 x 3" screws,

seating all screws fully.

For Patio Doors:

Pre-drill and install

four more #8 x 3"

screws through the

thick part of the jamb

where shown in a

similar manner to those

installed previously.

Seat all screws fully.

VINYL FRENCH AND PATIO DOORS:

Note! Use the six screws that come in the hardware pack to install the

door. The hardware pack also contains six screw caps and a #25 torx bit

to install the screws.

1. Verify the door is level, square and plumb. Check for even margins

around all panels and the frame and that the lockset holes (if

applicable) align properly. If not, adjust shims. Once the screws are

captured in the jamb jacks, they cannot be removed and reinstalled.

2. Use the jamb jack

screws and TORX bit

(provided) to initially

secure the frame

to the opening at

locations 1 & 2. Turn

jamb jack screws #1

and #2 until they

click twice. Do the

same for #3.

3. Check the inside

of jamb on the #1

side for plumb and

adjust by turning

jamb jack screws

clockwise to move

toward the jamb, or

counter clockwise

to move away from

the jamb. Check unit

for plumb, square

andlevel.

4. Turn #4 jamb jack

screw until it clicks

twice. Adjust jamb

jack screws on the

#4 side to plumb

jamb. Again, check

unit for level, plumb

andsquare.

5. Tighten jamb jack

screws #5 and # 6 being careful not to bow the side jambs.

6. Check unit for plumb, square and level and adjust as necessary.

ADJUST SILL CAP (IF NECESSARY)

Verify the sweep

properly contacts the

threshold with 1/8"

overlap as shown. Door

units are manufactured

so that, if installed

level and square, the

sweep will contact the

threshold properly,

making adjustments to

the sill cap unnecessary.

However, if adjustments

are needed, use a

at head screwdriver

to remove screw

covers and turn screw

clockwise to adjust

the sill cap up. Sills

are shipped with sill

cap adjusted all the

waydown.
