 have received water resistant treatment. We recommend painting or staining complete 

door before installation. If door is installed first, paint or stain door in closed position only (

DO 

NOT

 paint inside finger shield joints unless painting was done before installation). A 

professional painter can stain the various unmatched colors of the wood door to match, as well 
as, stain the door to simulate most any other type wood. It is normal for wood to check, crack, 
split, warp, swell and shrink. Wax inside joints etc, only after door has been painted or stained.
Expect light or dark colored fillers and glue residue, which should be finished by the painter.
 

Fasten

 owners instruction packet to #3 door section with screws provided.

Bond

 the Martin

 

logo firmly to the outside bottom corner of the door.

Warning: 

The small air spaces visible on each side of the door are required for the Finger 

Shield Joint   design and must not be sealed. (See drawings this page.)
