• 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 at 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.
4. Subtract the frame height measurement, from the net opening’s height measurement.
5. Subtract the fra me wi dth meas urem ent, from the net opening’s w i dth measur e me nt .
6. Divide each number in half. This is the amount of gap that will occur between the
frame and the net opening.
7. 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.
5. If the adjacent sides of the net opening need shimming, repeat the previous
steps. Match the shim length to the frame sides of the net opening (less 1/16”).

2.2. To Install the Frame
1. Verify openings conform to net openings listed in price book or original order.
2. Insert the finished frame assembly into the net opening. DO NOT for ce th e fra me
if the fit is too tight.
3. Insert a mounting screw into a mounting hole in each corner of the frame and
tighten each screw until it is approximately a quarter inch from flush.
4. Check the frame is aligned properly or square.
Frame Installation Reference
5. Use a measuring tape to measure diagonally one corner to the opposite and note
the distance.
6. Measure the distance between the remaining two corners.
Using wire connectors, these wires should be grouped by the Hot wires (Circuit
wires), the Neutral wires and the ground wire for connection to either the facility or
the case power.
Wiring Diagram
• Blue/White wire connects to the supplied Hot (or Lights Circuit Wire).
• White/Blue wire connects to the supplied Light neutral wire.
• Red and Black wires connect to the supplied Hot (or Door/Frame Heater
Circuit Wire).
• White/Red and White/Black wires connect to the supplied neutral wire for
Door/Frame Circuit.
• Green/Yellow wire connects to the supplied ground wire.
NOTE: W iring for lights should have a separate circuit from the door/frame
3. DOOR INSTALLATION & SERVICE MAINTENANCE (MODEL 401 & 1KDB)

3. Insert the hold-open bolt through the elongated hold-open slot.
4. Insert the washer and the hold-open bolt into the frame mounting hole and
tighten the bolt, use a 7/16” open-ended hand wrench.
Tighten Hold-Open Bolt
5. Set the door tension swing and correct the door alignment by adjusting the
TorqueMaster™. (See “TorqueMaster™ and SAG Adjustment (Model 401B
and1KDB)”.
Torquemaster Assembly
NOTE: DO NOT use power tools when adjusting the TorqueMaster™.
NOTE: DO NOT over tighten hold-open bolt. Verify hold-open does not bind
while sliding along the hold-open bolt . Adjus t as nec ess ar y .
1. Release tensio n on the TorqueMaster™ with a flat-head screwdriver. Turn the
TorqueMaster™ front facing screw clockwise, until the door does not
automatically close from an open position.
Release Torquemaster Tension
2. Open the door to access the hold open device, then loosen and remove the
hold-open detent bolt using a 7/16” hand wrench.
Remove Hold-Open Bolt
3. Retract the door to a near-c l osed pos it ion.
4. Remove the hinge pin plug from the frame by inserting the top-half of needlenose pliers into the spring clip grip hole and the bottom half beneath the hinge
pin shroud.
Hing e Pin A ssembly Disengage Hinge Pin
Compress pliers to clamp down on the hinge pin spring clip, then
simultaneously pull the hinge pin away from the frame and pull the door top
out.
Withdraw from Hinge Gib
Lift the door out of the TorqueMaster™. Secure or lean the door on its side
against a stable surface.
3.3. To Reverse the Door Swing (Model 1KDB Only)
Model 1KDB doors are reversible. Remove the door from the frame first and then
perform the following steps.
3.3.1. Frame
1. To remove the Torquemaster, insert a flat-head screwdriver into the top
center cutout in the Torquemaster, and turn the mounting screw counterclockwise for less than ½ turn. Lift the Torquemaster off the frame.
Remove Torquemaster
2. Pry off the plug cap (underneath) from the mounting hole, on the opposite
side of the doorframe with a flat-head screwdriver.
