Fixed Push Bar Installation
These steps detail how to install the fixed-style push bar to
the inside of the door frame.
NOTE:
Be sure to install two Parts List E sleeves
(Fig.19)
.
See the Mounting Options section on page 3
(Fig. 4).
NOTE:
Choose one of the following methods to install the
sleeves to the push bar. The standard method begins here
and the alternate method begins on page 8. Both methods
for installing the sleeves to the push bar will utilize the
same method for mounting the completed bar to the door.
Sleeve to Bar Installation (Standard Method)
1.
On both sleeves, insert the ball of the sleeve into the
pocket of the mount bracket
(Fig.18)
.
2.
Slide the sleeves over the ends of the push bar

5.
Move the assembly to a stable work surface and
measure from the ends of the push bar to each mark made
previously in step 4
(Fig. 21A, Fig. 21B)
.
6.
Add these measurements together, then divide that
sum by 2. Then, using a non-permanent marker, make
new marks on each end of the push bar equal to this new
number.
Example:
If measurement
(Fig. 21A)
= 1
1/2
” and
measurement
(Fig. 21B)
= 3”, Adding them equals 4
1/2
”.
Then, 4
1/2
” divided by 2 equals 2
1/4
”. Re-apply marks on
each end of the bar at 2
1/4
”.
NOTE:
This centers the push bar between the sleeves,
ensuring that there is an equal amount of bar for strength
inside each sleeve.
3.
From inside the screen door, dry fit the assembly to
the door’s width. Align the mount brackets
(Fig.20)
on both
sides of the screen door so that the bar rests parallel to the
frame of the door. Each sleeve mount bracket should be
centered vertically on the raised portion of the door frame.

marker
