• Complete replacement of wire assemblies is recommended whenever
required. Splice wires only if necessary, using proper materials: such as
electrical tape, wire nuts, flux core solder and heat shrink.
• Apply liquid soap to rail plastic covers and gaskets upon installation to
facilitate insertion into mounting grooves.
• Keep doors and frames clean for product efficiency. This can also help
reduce energy consumption and potential health hazards.
• Whenever binding gasket or plastic parts, use food grade silicone.
1. Read instructions completely before installing the frame.
• Clearance between the frame sill and the case bottom or floor is mandated by
local building codes.
• Sill net opening must be a minimum of two inches in height
• Sill must be completely level.
2. Before installing the frame, confirm the size of the net opening accommodates the
finish frame. If the tolerances are too high, the net opening will have to be enlarged.
3. Check size of finished frame to net opening.
• Subtract the frame height measurement from the net opening’s height
measurement.
• Subtract the frame width measurement from the net opening’s width
measurement.
• Divide each number in half. This is the amount of gap that will occur between the
frame and the net opening.
4. If the gap between the frame and the net opening is greater than 1/16”, shim the gap
for a proper fit.
2.1. Shimming
1. Acquire sturdy, penetrable material, such as plywood. The thickness of the
material should be wedge shaped or slightly less than the gap to be filled.
2. Measure the gap length (height or width of frame) and cut the shim material to
1/16” less than the measured length.
3. Install the shim using the same type of mounting hardware that will be used to
install the frame. Be certain that the shim installation hardware will not interfere
with the frame installation hardware
4. If necessary, cut a second shim to the same length and install it in the opposite
side of the net opening.
