See Figure 5

Shimming Walk-In door hinges
A.
If the Walk-In door is installed properly, no shimming is
required. Shim only where misapplication or poor
installation of the door panel have caused the door
cap to seal improperly. If the door cap toes outward at
the top or bottom of the latch side of the panel, shim
the diagonally opposite hinge base outward, forcing
the corner of the door cap back into alignment with
the door frame for a positive seal.
See Figure 6.
B. To shim hinges on Walk-In doors, loosen the machine
screws on the base of the hinge enough to slip the
required number of shims into place behind the base.
See Figure 7
. Where tamper-proof screws are used,
loosen them by tapping the screw head
counterclockwise with a center-punch and hammer as
shown in
Figure 5.
C. Retighten machine screws and check door cap for
proper seal.
