Installing BD36/32 Series Bi-Fold Glass Doors
Follow these steps to install left and right operable panels:
1. With the handle down, completely fold the panel on its hinges.
2. With handle facing the center of the firebox opening, insert the
lower pivot pin on the door panel into the hole in the bottom
outer edge of the fireplace opening. See
Figure 13
.
3. Keep the folded door tilted and slide the upper two pins into the
guide track below the upper facial edge of the firebox opening.
4. Tilt the glass assembly fully vertical until the outer pivot pin
snaps into the mounting hole in the upper spring clip.
5. Once the top and bottom pins are secured, unfold the door into
the closed position.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for the opposite door assembly.
7. To adjust the doors, slide them partially open. Using a Phillips
screwdriver, loosen the hold-down screws on the spring clips
(see
Figure 14
).
8. Close both doors until evenly joined at the middle and note the
gap as measured to the outer edges of the front face.
9. Reopen each door one at a time and retighten the hold-down
screw while preserving the noted gap at each edge.
10. Repeat the process until both doors are evenly joined, spaced
and working freely.
Removing Bi-Fold Glass Doors
Bi-fold doors may be removed for replacing or cleaning as follows:
1. Partially open each door and press up on the upper spring clip
with a screw driver until the outer top pivot pin is free of the
clip.
2. Fully fold the frame assembly and slide the upper edge towards
the center of the firebox opening until the guide pins are free of
the frame rail (see
Figure 13
).
Installing/Removing FD36/32 Series Fixed Glass Doors
Fixed glass doors may be installed as folows:
1. Hold the glass door firmly at both handles and insert top pins
into the clips located below the upper facial edge of the firebox
opening. Make sure the top pins snap securely into the holes on
the spring clips (see
Figure 15
).
2. As you push up on the glass against the tension of the
spring clips, swing the lower door in toward the face until
the bottom pins clear the bottom rail and seat into the
locating holes on each end. (see
Figure 13
).
Note:
If the pins do not align into the spring clips, slightly
loosen the retaining screw on each clip (see
Figure 14
).
Reinsert the panel into each spring clip and align the panel
into the lower locating holes. Remove the panel, finish tighten
the retaining screws in place and then reinsert the panel again.
