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. 10A, Fig. 10B)
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. 10A)
= 1
1/2
” and
measurement
(Fig. 10B)
= 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.

Slide the sleeves onto each end of the push bar to the
new marks and, using the supplied screws, fasten the
sleeves to the push bar.
(Fig.11)
. The push bar is now
complete.
NOTE:
Ensure that care is taken when measuring and
fastening the push bar to the sleeves. The screw creates
a hole in the bar, and once installed, small adjustments
cannot be made.
Sleeve to Bar Installation (Alternate Method)
NOTE:
Additional assistance may be needed for this
method.
1.
Measure to find center point on the push bar. Mark the
center point with a non-permanent marker
(Fig 12)
.
2.
Slide sleeves over the ends of the push bar

3.
From inside the screen door, dry fit the assembly to the
door’s width. Insert the lever side sleeve up to the insertion
line on the inside push bar lever handle
(Fig. 13A)
and align
the mount bracket on the door hinge side so that the bar
rests parallel to the frame of the door
(Fig. 13)
. The sleeve
mount bracket should be centered vertically on the raised
portion of the screen door frame
(Fig. 13)
.
4.
Adjust the push bar in the sleeves and measure to
make sure an equal amount of bar (X”) is showing from
the center mark made in step 1 to the start of the each
sleeve
(Fig. 13)
. This ensures there is an equal amount of
bar inside each sleeve for strength. Mark on the bar where
the sleeves start with a non-permanent marker
(Fig.13B)
.
You may need additional assistance to hold the assembly
in place while the measurements are taken and marks are
made.
