IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND GLOSSARY
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
for Vinyl Patio Doors without Nailing Fin (JII015)
Newer construction methods have led to an increase in air and water tightness in buildings. This frequently leads to negative air pressure inside the home, 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 official for applicable building codes and regulations. Local building code requirements supersede recommended installation instructions.
Please Note! Any patio door installation where 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 twist or warp) 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.
Buck
A wood framework attached to the masonry inside a window or patio door rough opening.
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 used to block air ow between the interior and exterior of the buildingenvelope.
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.
LANDINGS
These instructions cover two patio door sill conditions: the
Step-Down Landing
step-down landing
and the continuous
slab landing. The
installation methods vary slightly between landing types.
Continuous Slab Landing
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 (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
contact us with questions:
Email: customerserviceagents@jeld-wen.com Phone: (800)-JELD-WEN/(800)-535-3936
Please allow sufcient time to properly prepare the rough opening, install the patio door and ensure its proper operation.

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.
FULLY SHEATHED / OPEN-STUD WALL CONSTRUCTION
Fully sheathed wall framing is covered by sheathing. This installation assumes building wrap is properly installed prior to patio doorinstallation.
Open-Stud walls are not covered by sheathing.
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.
• Never use solvent-based 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).
• Vinyl caps to cover screw holes.
NEEDED MATERIALS
Note! Follow all material manufacturers’ instructions for proper use
and compatibility. When using flashing, 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.
• #8 x 1 1/4" (minimum) washer head or pan head corrosion-resistant screws (stainless steel recommended). Fasteners must penetrate at least 1" into framing.
• 3/16" x 2 1/2" self-tapping concrete screws (if required to secure the sill into concrete/masonry).
• 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 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).
• 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.
• Drip cap if required because of door location and exposure. Doors with an adequate overhang (see our Appropriate Protection document at www.jeld-wen.com) may not need a drip cap. In addition to sill pans, SureSill™ also offers types of head ashing.
For installations into a Buck:
• Liquid applied ashing (Protecto Wrap LWM 200 or equivalent).
NEEDED TOOLS
• Hacksaw (SureSill sill pan) Cutting shears (fabricated sillpan)
• Tape measure
• Utility knife
• Level (4' minimum recommended)
• J-roller
• Caulking gun
• Drill with bits
• Clean rags
• Screwdrivers

REMOVE PACKAGING
Remove shipping materials such as corner covers, shipping blocks or pads. Remove any temporary handles just prior to installation into the rough opening. Flush n doors will have a wood or cardboard support on the sill. Remove the support and then remove the nailing n if present. To remove the nailing n, score the nailing n with a utility knife as close to the frame as possible, then bend back and forth until it snaps off.

FOR RETROFIT INSTALLATIONS
For nless/block frame doors, remove the entire old patio door. Removing the exterior wall surface is not necessary if the opening has been evaluated to be structurally sound and water tight. Repair any problems before continuing.
For ush n doors, remove the old door panels and the sill. Remove enough of the bottom of both side jambs to allow for a sill pan to be installed - details in following section.
Contact your local waste management entities for proper disposal or recycling of products being removed.
REMOVE PACKAGING AND INSPECT PATIO DOOR
INSPECT ROUGH OPENING
INSPECT PATIO DOOR
• Cosmetic damage.
• Product squareness (diagonal measurements must be within 1/4"difference).
• Correct product (size, color, grid pattern, handing, glazing, energy­efciency requirements, etc.).
• For side-by-side mulled units, a drip cap that extends the length of the frame plus 1/8" overhang on each end is required.
• Included parts (See Parts List above).
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.
ALL INSTALLATIONS
• Verify the width and height of the patio door are each 1/2"-3/4" smaller than the rough opening width/height. Mulled units should be 3/4"smaller.
• Verify the rough opening is square. The (A) and (B) measurements should be the same. Maximum allowable deviation from square is 1/4".
• Verify the rough opening is level and plumb (C) and (D). The maximum allowable deviation is 1/8".
• The rough opening sill must not be crowned or sagged (D), but rather be 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.

PREPARE STUD-FRAMED WALL
PREPARE BUILDING WRAP
Check with the building wrap manufacturer to verify the following steps will not void their product warranty.
Note! Steps 1 and 2 apply only to new construction.
1. Trim building wrap ush with the edges of the roughopening.
2. If the door extends
6"
beyond the exterior plain of the building and a drip cap is desired, at the
45˚
head, slit building wrap 6" at 45°. Tape up as shown. We recommend installing a drip cap because this integrates the building wrap and drip cap to protect the structure and the product from incidental water.
INSTALL JOBSITE FABRICATED SILL PAN
Note! The rest of the steps in this section only apply to a job site
fabricated sill pan. If installing a sill pan that you have purchased, follow manufacturer's instructions for installation and skip to section 6, “INSTALL DOOR.”
1. If installing a metal sill pan on concrete, cut a piece of self-adhesive ashing the length of the sill pan and adhere it to the entire bottom surface where the pan will sit on the concrete.
2. Apply spray adhesive/ primer to the sill pan and surrounding area. Follow manufacturer’s

ALL INSTALLATIONS
1. If installing a pre-formed sill pan, follow manufacturer’s instructions and skip
Sealant
this step. If installing a job site fabricated sill pan, run a continuous 3/8" bead of sealant along the sill pan back dam. When the frame is installed, make sure the frame makes solid contact with the sealant. Add more sealant if necessary.
2. Tilt the frame into the rough opening. Adequately support the frame until fully installed.
3. Align the exterior of the frame, or ush n, with the most exterior surface of the structure (the exterior face of the concrete wall, framing or sheathing).
Areas such as Florida and the Texas TDI region have different anchoring requirements based on product certification. For information on specific products, visit www.floridabuilding.org or www.tdi.texas.gov and follow the anchoring schedule given in the drawings for the product instead of the anchoring schedule in this document.
Patio doors will be fastened according to Performance Grade (PG) rating. This rating is located on the gold AAMA label fixed somewhere on the frame. Look for something like this example: R-PG20-3645X2426 (144X96)-SD. Mark fastener locations in the interior frame track of the side jambs and head as follows:
• PG20–4" from each corner and every 24".
• PG35–4" from each corner and every 18".
• PG50 and above–4" from each corner and every 12".
5. At each fastener location, insert shims and only through the rst wall of the jamb, drill a 3/8" clearance hole. Then, drill a 1/8" pilot hole through the jamb

PATIO DOOR ADJUSTMENT
Roller Adjustment Note! Adjusting door too high may allow water and air leakage. Adjust
rollers just high enough to clear sill track and still roll smoothly.
1. Builders vinyl doors have an adjustment screw on each lower end of the operating panel(s), and Premium vinyl doors have access holes on the face of each lower end of the operating panel(s). Remove small vinyl plugs from each hole if present.
2. Open operating panel enough to compare with frame jamb.
Note! Builders vinyl roller adjustment screws on the end of the panel
are in close proximity to the attachment screw. Adjust only the lower screw as shown because loosening the attachment screw will detach the roller from the operating panel.
3. Using a #2 Phillips head screwdriver,
Builders Patio Door
turn the adjustment screw clockwise to raise the panel, and counterclockwise to lower the panel.
4. Premium vinyl doors may have different types of rollers. To identify the roller, look inside the adjustment hole.
Premium Patio Door
• If the roller has a plus (+) sign, clockwise rotations will lower the panel and counterclockwise will raise thepanel.
• If the roller has
Builders Roller
a minus (-) sign, the operations arereversed.
5. Adjust as needed until interlocks, grid patterns and jambs line up.
6. Test the operating panel for proper operation.
7. Re-apply the small vinyl caps over the roller adjustment screw holes

ifapplicable.
Lock Adjustment Note! If the strike plate
was not previously installed, line up the screw holes with the dimples in the operating panel side jamb and drive screws through the two slotted screw holes.
If the lock does not properly engage the strike plate:
• Loosen the strike plate screws and move up or down until the latch engages properly.
If the door does not lock or is loose whenlocked:
• Turn the latch adjustment screw(s) in 1/2 turn increments: clockwise to loosen or counterclockwise to tighten. Premium vinyl doors have a double latch and two adjustment screws.
