Mini mizin g Condensation

NOTE: Please reference EFCO's "Understanding Condensation" brochure which can be obtained through your EFCO representative. Condensation will form on any surface when unfavorable conditions (interior temperature and relative humidity and exterior temperature) are present. When the formation of excessive condensation is a concern, it is highly recommended that a design professional is utilized to perform an analysis of the shop drawings to recommend the best installation methods. Please contact EFCO representative for information on EFCO's Thermal Analysis Services. Many current installation practices lead to an increase in the possibility of the formation of condensation. Though not all inclusive, the list of examples below illustrates conditions under which condensation is likely to occur:

1. Bridging system thermal break with non-thermally broken metal flashing or lintels that are exposed to the exterior.

2. System exposure to cold air cavities.

3. Interior relative humidity levels not maintained at recommended levels, see EFCO's "Understanding Condensation" brochure.

4. Inadequate separation between system and surrounding condition at perimeter.

5. Product combinations during the shop drawing stage that result in bridging thermal breaks of one or all products involved.

SECTION I: GENERAL NOTES AND GUIDELINES

HANDLING-STORING-PROTECTING ALUMINUM -

Tie rod doors and components are finished products that must be protected while in the packing boxes and after assembly. The following procedures and precautions are recommended.

A. PROTECTION AND STORAGE OF PACKAGED, UNASSEMBLED DOORS

1. Handle the boxes carefully, do not shake or drop.

2. Store the boxes off the ground.

3. If the boxes become wet, remove the contents, repack and move to a dry location.

4. Do not over stack boxes. Recommended capacity is four (4) boxes high.

PAGE 2

B. PROTECTION AND STORAGE OF ASSEMBLED DOORS

1. If stored outside, protect the doors against the elements and other

construction trades by using a well ventilated covering, as required.

2. Do not drop or drag the doors. This may cause racking or damage to the corner

joinery.

3. If the doors are stacked together, be sure to allow adequate separation to

protect the finish. C. CHECK MATERIAL

Check all of the door material upon arrival for quantity and damage. Any visibly damaged material must be noted on the freight bill at the time of receipt. If a claim is required, the receiving party must process a claim with the freight carrier. If the delivery is by an EFCO truck, any damage or variance in the quantity of door units or boxes must be reported to the EFCO driver during the unloading process.

D. CLEANING THE DOOR UNITS Cement, plaster, terrazzo, alkaline, and acid based materials used to clean masonry are

very harmful to finishes and must be removed with water and mild soap immediately. Otherwise, permanent staining will occur. A spot test is recommended before any cleaning agent is used.

TOOLS NEEDED:

1.) 9/16" COMBINATION WRENCH for tie rod lock nuts

2.) 7/16" SOCKET WITH RATCHET for adjustable jack screw

3.) #3 TIPPED PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER for butt hinge installation

4.) FLAT TIPPED SCREWDRIVER for offset pivot adjustment

5.) SOFT FACED MALLET for door glazing

6.) PUTTY KNIFE for glass adjustment

SECTION IV: OFFSET JACK SCREW ASSEMBLY

STEP #1 OFFSET JACK SCREW BLOCK INSERTION

Insert the offset jack screw block assembly (#K421/K432) through the end of the top rail

and down into the slot cut in the glazing side of the rail. Position the edge of the jack screw assembly toward the side of the top rail with the hole prep for the jack screw. See Figure #1.

STEP #2 JACK SCREW INSERTION

Insert one (1) jack screw (#IHP2/M103) per top rail. Tighten the screw enough to allow

the jack screw cap (#HB18 or #HB19) to be snapped to the jack screw block

(#K421/K432). See Figure #2.

STEP #3 JACK SCREW CAPS

Determine which door glazing is used. For 1/4" glass, use the 1/4" jack screw cap (#HB18). For 1" glass, use the 1" jack screw cap (#HB19). Snap the correct jack screw

cap to the jack screw block. Use one cap per top rail. See Figure #2 below.

ALIGN THIS EDGE WITH HOLE PREP

SECTION VI: TIE ROD ASSEMBLY

STEP #5 TOP AND BOTTOM RAIL ADAPTOR INSERTION

Slide the top rail adaptors (#FS76) into the vertical stiles and center the hole in the adaptors over the top hole in the door stiles, as shown in Figure #4. Note: Position the bottom rail adaptors by aligning the bottom hole of the adaptor with the hole in the bottom of the stile, as shown in figure #5.

STEP #6 TIE ROD AND RAIL ASSEMBLY

Insert the tie rod (#M120 or #M150) through the adaptor and door stile. Apply two (2) washers (#FS75) and two (2) (#IQT1) lock nuts per rail to the tie rod. Note: The washer is required at the beveled stile T200 ONLY. Align the top and bottom rails over the tie rods and rail adaptors and install the lock nuts and washers to the opposing stile, as shown in Figure #6. Use a 9/16" combination wrench and tighten the lock nuts at each corner. CAUTION: Over tightening the lock nuts may cause the door rails to bow. Note: Follow the instructions above for 10" bottom rail assembly, and fasten the 10" bottom rail to the K459 10" bottom rail adaptor clip with the supplied S123 #12-24 x 3/4" fasteners (Figure 7). Attachment of the 10" bottom rail is through the top of the rail in prefabricated countersink holes that provide the correct location for the S123 fasteners.

SECTION VII: GLAZING AND REGLAZING DOORS

STEP #7 SETTING BLOCKS APPLICATION

Insert three (3) setting blocks (#H348 or #H159) at approximately 6" from the inside

corners. Setting blocks are used at the door stiles and the bottom rail only. An adjustable jack screw will be used at the top rail. Refer to Figure #1 on page 8. If required, apply silicone to the back of the setting blocks to keep them in the correct position until the glass is installed. See Figure #8.

STEP #8 CLEANING THE GLAZING TRACK

Check to ensure that the glazing surface of the door and glazing bead are free from metal shavings. Metal shavings may be blown out with air or brushed out. See Figure #9.

STEP #9 INSTALLING GLASS STOPS

The glass stops are designed to be inserted into the glazing tabs in the door rails and then

rotated down to lock into place. See Figure #9. Use a soft faced mallet, if needed. Hit on

the corner of the glass stop, making sure not to distort the metal. Start at one end and work toward the other end of the glass stop.

SECTION VIII: PUSH/PULL ASSEMBLY

STEP #10 PUSH BAR END CAPS

If required, cut the push bar to length. The push bar must be cut from the hinge end. Consult the chart below for the correct cut length formula. Insert the push bar end caps into the ends of the push bar as shown in Figure #10. Note: To ensure a tight fit, EFCO recommends applying a thin coat of two part epoxy to the legs of the end caps prior to being inserted into the push bar. See Figure #10.

STEP #11 PULL HANDLE BOLTS

Start one (1) 1/4"-20 x 3/4" (#IHP2) hex head bolt into the factory installed riv nut located in the lock stile. Insert one (1) 1/4"-20 x 2 1/2" (#M105) hex head bolt into the predrilled hole in the lock stile.

STEP #12 PUSH BAR APPLICATION

Hold the push bar to the door and start the hex head bolt (#M105) at the lock stile as shown in Figure #10. After installing the hex head bolts (#IHP2 and #M105), leave hex head bolts loose, with a minimum 5/16" gap. This will allow the pull handle to slide under

the hex head bolt.

STEP #13 LOCK STILE BOLT

Continue holding the push bar to the door and align the hole on the hinge stile with the hole in the mounting cap. Attach the hinge stile of the push bar with the 1/4"-20 x 2 1/4" PL-TH-MS (M104) dress bolt shown in Figure #10.

STEP #14 PULL HANDLE APPLICATION

Slide the pull handle under the hex head bolts at the lock stile and tighten.

SECTION IX: OFFSET PIVOT APPLICATION

STEP #15 SETTING THE DOOR INTO THE FRAME

The top pivot will be attached to the door stile and requires no adjustment after the door has been set into the frame. All adjustments to the door are by the intermediate offset pivot if used, and the bottom offset pivot. To set the door, depress the top pivot pin and hold down with your index finger. Place the door portion of the bottom pivot onto the

frame portion of the bottom pivot. Align the pin in the door portion of the top pivot with the hole in the frame portion of the top pivot and release the pin as shown in Figure #11.

NOTE: If an intermediate offset pivot is used, retract the pin in the frame portion of the intermediate pivot before releasing the pin in the top pivot. Use a flat screwdriver to remove the cap on the bottom of the intermediate pivot and turn the pin counterclockwise

to lower. See page 13, Step #16 for details.

DOOR REMOVAL

To remove the door, remove the cap and lower the pin in the intermediate pivot, if used. If the pin will not lower, remove the screws from the frame portion. Open the door to 90˚

and depress and rotate the pin toward the pivot edge of the door to lock in the retaining pin as shown in Figure #12. After the top pivot pin is clear from the frame portion, the intermediate pivot will slide free from the frame. See Figure #12.

SECTION XIV: TIE ROD DOOR CUT

LENGTH ALTERATIONS

STEP #23 LOCK STILE LENGTH ALTERATIONS

The minimum cutoff for the lock stile is 9/16" as shown in Figure #19. The minimum cutoff

needs to be taken from the top of the lock stile only. This will prevent having to relocate

the M.S. lock.

STEP #24 HINGED STILE LENGTH ALTERATIONS

The minimum cutoff for the hinged stile is 9/16" as shown in Figure #20. When using a C.O.C., the cutoff must be taken from the bottom of the hinged stile only. This will prevent interference with the preps for the concealed overhead closer at the top of the stile.

STEP #25 TOP RAIL LENGTH ALTERATIONS

The maximum cutoff for the top rail is 11/16" as shown in Figure #21. The cutoff must be

taken from the offset jack screw end so as not to interfere with the concealed overhead

closer prep at the hinged end of the rail. Note: Fabrication done in the field must bypass the factory drilled holes by 1/2 the

diameter of the hole. There is no minimum cutoff length for the bottom rail.
