Sill Plate Assembly

Identify your door type

Before you begin installing your new retractable screen door, it is important to
identify your sill and door type. If you have a short sill or an outswing door, you
may need to make some modifications before proceeding to the installation steps.

SILL TYPE DOOR TYPE

Right/Left Inswing

Screen assembly will mount

on outside of the home.

Additional steps required

Sill is flush with the exterior trim.

Flush Sill

Right/Left Outswing*

Screen assembly will mount

on inside of the home.

Long/Extended Sill

Sill extends past the exterior trim.

Additional steps may be required

Short Sill

Sill stops short of the exterior trim.

Filler Board

• A filler board is not needed
when short sills have ground
directly underneath sill.

• A filler board is needed when
short sill sits on top of a step.

• Cut the filler board and place
under the trim so the top of the
filler board is even with the sill.

NOTE: Prior to following

the standard assembly
process, you must first
reconfigure the lock/latch.
Go to page 7 to complete
this modification first.
