INSTALLATION:
1. Determine the proper window guard for each window using Window Guard Positioning Chart. .
2. Mount window guards:
Note: window guards have holes around perimeter for permanent mounting. These holes are not used with hinge
kit. They also come flat in shipping. The guard must be pre-bent (outward) so it fits tight against the door window
frame. Do not use holes on side of window guard to mount with the hinge application!
1. Hold window guard with pre-assembled hinge and upper bracket onto window frame.
2. Make sure guard is centered on window.
3. Attach hinge to lower door panel with #10 x ½” Stainless Sheet Metal Screws.
4. Mark upper aluminum bracket location on window frame and remove from window guard.
5. Attach aluminum bracket onto window frame with #10 x ½” Flat Head Sheet Metal Screws.
6.
Hinge up window guard and reattach to bracket with 10-32 x ½” Stainless Machine Screws.
Note 1: After the 1/8” holes are drilled in metal doorframe, it is helpful to indent the holes inward
with a punch. This will enable the mounting screws to grab better.
Note 2: The machine screws for upper mounting plate must be removed from the window guard in
order to access mounting screws. Placement of upper mount plate is critical in order for machine
screws to attach properly.
