5. Before fitting the unhanded door post, offer the glass panels to the door (see glazing plan in
booklet for glass size guide on door), slide them in from the side. Carefully attach the un-
handed door post in the same way as before, ensuring the glass is sitting in the correct posi-
tion (sitting on the beading channels of the door posts) before tightening the screws.
6. Make sure all angles are square
and tighten all screws. Now
insert 2 glazing clips to the glass
on the unhanded door post.
The other side of the door is
clipped using a PVC glass strip (or clip cap). Cut the strip to
the correct length and push into the cavity between the glass
and the handed door post. The cap when fitted acts as a
wedge to prevent movement of the glass. Metal clips are not
fitted to this bar.
7.
Fix each door wheel into position by pushing the bolt provid-
ed through the centre of the wheel and then through the hole
in the top door panel from underneath (i.e. from the inside of
the door). Put the washer over the bolt and secure with the
nut provided, tightening until there is no movement on the bolt. The nuts are lock-nuts and
are harder to put on than normal nuts in general assembly. The wheel will revolve freely
because it has ball bearings in it. The wheel has a collar protruding from the centre, this
collar goes against the inside face of the top door panel. (See picture below).
8. Slip the nylon door skids on each of the bottom panels. This may already have been done
prior to delivery.
9. Build the right hand door using the remaining handed and unhanded door post. Viewed from
the outside, the handed door post will be on the left of the door, while the unhanded door
post will be on the right. At this point you must decide the height you would like your door
lock. The hole to take the door lock is on the left hand side of the infill panel. You can de-
cide to fit this panel to the 2nd or 3rd panel down.
Make sure you fit the glass before final
fixing of the door. See glazing plan towards the back of this booklet.
10. Thread the stainless steel backed brush extruder into the PVC carrier. This may already have
been done prior to delivery.
11. Turn the doors over and insert the black
brush draught excluder in the groove
(bolt slot) in the unhanded door posts.
Insert a nut and bolt at the bottom of
each unhanded door post and tighten so
that the brush will not slip down when
the door is in its upright position. Cut
off the surplus brush and carrier at the
top of the bar.
12. Do not fit the door to the gable at this
stage – wait until the structure is fully
assembled prior to glazing.
13. Door handles can now be fitted.
