IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND GLOSSARY
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
for Vinyl Patio Doors with Integral Nailing Fin (JII006)
Newer construction methods have led to an increase in air and water tightness in buildings. This frequently leads to negative air pressure inside the house, which can draw water through very small openings. Our installation method seals the patio door in a weather-tight manner and uses a sill pan to capture and drain incidental storm water from under the patio door.
Not all patio door types may be installed into every wall condition in all areas. Consult your local building code ofcial for applicable building codes and regulations. Local building code requirements supersede recommended installation instructions.
Please Note! Any patio door installation such that the sill is higher than
35 feet above ground level or into a wall condition not specically addressed in these instructions must be designed by an architect or structural engineer. Failure to install square, level and plumb and on a at surface (without peak and valleys) could result in denial of warranty claims for operational or performance problems.
Note to Installer: Provide a copy of these instructions to the building
owner. By installing this product, you acknowledge the terms and conditions of the limited warranty as part of the terms of the sale.
GLOSSARY
Backer Rod (backing material)
A material (e.g. foam rod), placed into a joint primarily to control the depth of the sealant.
Continuous Air Seal
Backer rod and sealant or low expansion foam applied to the interior gap between the product and the building, in a continuous fashion, which serves to block air ow between the interior and exterior of the building envelope.
Mulled Unit
Two or more door units structurally joined together.
Pilot Hole
A drilled hole that is no larger than the body of the screw (minus thethreads).
Score
Make a cut mark in the same location multiple times.
Shiplap
The layering method in which each layer overlaps the layer below it so that water runs down the outside.
Sill Pan
A ashing component installed in the sill of the rough opening underneath the door. Sill pans have upturned walls along the interior edge and at both ends, creating a three sided box. This component serves as a collection device to drain incidental water to the exterior of the building and should be properly sealed to the opening. The best sill pan design has a positive slope to the exterior and offers continuous support to the door’s sill.
Weep Hole (weep channel)
The visible exit or entry part of a water drainage system used to drain water out of a door frame.
Please allow sufcient time to properly prepare the rough opening, install the patio door and ensure its proper operation.

REVERSE PATIO DOOR HANDING
Only pre-installed 6'8" and 6'10" Builders sliding patio doors without blinds between the glass that have weep holes on the top and bottom are reversible, or specially designed to be converted to be opened either from the left or the right. Patio doors that are set up for left hand operation (door opens from the left on the exterior) or vice versa, can be converted to open from the opposite side by following the instructions in our document SVC001, available at www.jeld-wen.com. Do not
install the patio door until after completion of the reversing instructions and the xed panel is on the desired side. Please

SAFETY AND HANDLING
SAFETY
• Read and fully understand ALL manufacturers’ instructions before beginning. Failure to follow proper installation instructions may result in the denial of warranty claims for operational or performanceproblems.
• Do not work alone. Two or more people are required. Use safe lifting techniques.
• Use caution when handling glass. Broken or cracked glass can cause serious injury.
• Wear protective gear (e.g. safety glasses, gloves, ear protection, etc.).
• Operate hand/power tools safely and follow manufacturer’s operating instructions.
• Use caution when working at elevated heights.
• If disturbing existing paint, take proper precautions if lead paint is suspected (commonly used before 1979). Your regional EPA (www.epa.gov/lead) or Consumer Product Safety Commission ofces
provide information regarding regulations and lead protection.
OPEN-STUD CONSTRUCTION
If self-adhesive ashing is to be applied so that it is wider than the
Open-Stud with Backing
framing of the wall, it may be necessary to cover the wall with backing support sufcient to support the entire width of the ashing.
This backing support should be a non water­degradable, thin (max. 1/8" thick) sheet material such as vinyl sheeting. Completely surround the rough opening with the backing support as shown. Backing support must be applied before building wrap.
MATERIALS AND PATIO DOOR HANDLING
• Make sure the operating panel is secured prior to installation.
• Heed material manufacturers’ handling and application instructions.
• Protect adhesive surfaces from dirt, moisture, direct sunlight and folding over onto themselves.
• Handle in vertical position; do not drag.
• Do not put stress on joints, corners or frames.
• Store patio door in dry, well-ventilated area in vertical, leaning position to allow air circulation; do not stack horizontally.
• Protect from exposure to direct sunlight during storage.
• Install only into vertical walls and when conditions and sheathing are dry.
• Only use recommended sealants on vinyl products.
IF INJURY OCCURS, IMMEDIATELY SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION!
MATERIALS AND TOOLS
PROVIDED MATERIALS
4 - #10 x 2 1/2" screws (to secure the strike plate)
NEEDED MATERIALS
Note! Follow all material manufacturers’ instructions for proper use
and compatibility. When using ashing, spray adhesive/primer, sealant and foam products, we recommend using the same manufacturer and verifying compatibility. It is the End User's responsibility to determine if dissimilar materials are compatible to the substrates in the application.
• 1 3/4" galvanized roong nails or #8 x 1 1/4" pan head or washer head (stainless steel recommended) screws. Fasteners must penetrate at least 1" into framing (or as required by local code).
• Non-compressible or water degradable shims.
• Sill pan: It is best practice to use a pre-formed, rigid, positively sloped, pvc pan that provides continuous support. We recommend using SureSill™ Sloped Sill Pan™ , manufactured by SureSill™, Ltd. An alternative would be a non-sloped pre-formed sill pan or one that can be fabricated on site from metal or vinyl sheet material with the proper tools.
• Sealant: We recommend OSI® QUAD® Max Sealant or equivalent. This can be used in any application and can be painted or ordered in a color matched product, if desired.
• Backer rod 1/8" larger than the widest portion of the gap (used in conjunction with sealant bead).
2
• Polyurethane low expansion Window and Door foam: We recommend OSI® QUAD® Foam or equivalent).
• 4", 6", or 9" (as required by local code and window conguration) wide self-adhesive ashing: We recommend OSI® Butyl Flash Tape orequivalent.
• Spray adhesive/primer for self adhesive ashing. Such as Loctite® 300 or equivalent.
• For step-down landings only: Plastic drain screen with crisscross or woven pattern (sold in 6" widths to protect rain gutters) and 3/8" staples. The drain screen provides a path for air to dry any incidental moisture in the rough opening.
• Drip cap material, if not supplied, required only for side-by-side mulled units that extends the length of the frame plus 1/8" overhang on each end.
NEEDED TOOLS
• Hacksaw (used only for SureSill sill pan)
• Cutting shears (used only for fabricated sill pan)
• Tape measure
• Utility knife
• Level (4 ft. minimum recommended)

If any of the above conditions represent a concern, or if you expect environmental conditions to exceed the patio door’s performance rating, do not install the patio door. Contact your dealer or distributor for recommendations.
• Verify the rough opening is level and plumb (C). The maximum allowable deviation is 1/8".
• The rough opening sill must not be crowned or sagged (D), but rather level or sloped (positive slope) to the exterior.
• The exterior face of the rough opening must be in a single plane (E) with less than 1/8" twist from corner to corner.
• Minimum double studs should be used at all wood framed roughopenings.
• The header must be supported by trimmer studs.
FOR RETROFIT INSTALLATIONS
After removing the old patio door, remove sufcient cladding (siding, stucco etc.) to expose enough intact building wrap to properly seal the patio door to the opening. If damaged, apply new building wrap in shiplap manner. Verify the rough opening framing is structurally sound. Contact your local waste management entities for proper disposal or recycling of products being removed.
