1. Prepare and mortise top of door and head jamb to receive pivot set. Determine pivot location using dimensions on reverse side.
Standard templating for this center pivot has the pivot point located 2-3/4” from side jamb.
The pivot point of top pivot set must be
plumb with bottom pivot point.
The finish plate should be removed from frame leaf prior to installation.
2. Locate, drill, and tap 1/4-20 mounting holes for metal door or metal frame. Locate and drill pilot holes for #14 wood screws for wood
door or wood frame. Install pivot leafs with 1/4-20 x 3/4” FHMS or #14 FHWS screws provided. Attach finish plate to frame leaf.
3. The pin of top pivot set should be retracted now for ease of installation. Insert 5/32” Allen wrench through access hole and into pin
adjustment screw. Rotate Allen wrench counterclockwise until pivot pin is completely retracted (Figure 1).
4. Install bottom pivot set. Once bottom pivot set is installed and secured, hang the door.
5.
With door in open position (about 90° to jamb), carefully fit door onto bottom pivot. Refer to bottom pivot instruction sheet. With door
in vertical position,
align top pivot leafs in door and jamb.
With pivot leafs aligned, insert 5/32” Allen wrench through access hole
into pin adjustment screw. Rotate Allen wrench clockwise until pin adjust screw seats and pivot pin is in normal position (Figure 1).
The door should now swing freely. If it does not, double check templating dimensions.
