- Size of upper inner architrave: 620 + 16 = 636
- Size of upper outer architrave: 620 + 6 = 626
- Size of side inner architraves: 2030 + 8 = 2038
- Size of side outer architraves: 2030 + 3 = 2033
We recommend you make the cuts with a tol
1 mm - 0 mm
These sizes are suitable for jambs of 20
mm width. For other jamb sizes and cha-
mfered jambs the measurements should
be taken in situ.
6. METHOD OF USE
6.1.1. MOUNTING JAMBS AND
NEW DOORS ON EXISTING CONSTRUCTION
Mounting precut jambs on the template (see tem-
plate preparation)
1.- Fit the header piece onto the upper part of the
template (Fig. 2) and stop it using clamps "F" and secure
it with knobs "G".
2.- Fit the two side pieces into their respective places
ensuring that the vertical drop is lined up with the
header piece. (Fig. 2) Stop it using clamps "F" and secure
it with knobs "G".
3.- Start hollowing out the jamb (old frame) in order to
mount the template with the previously fitted jambs.
To do this, use the width and height formula indicated
in the table for examples of use. The inner frame should
be cut using an electric chain saw or jig saw with no
concern for any splintering or poor finish.
Mounting the template with jambs in the prepared
opening.
4.- Insert the template into the opening and level it
up with the wall.
5.- Adjust the template using knobs "H" (Fig. 1) to obtain
a perfect vertical drop with the help of the levels on
the side pieces.
6.- Fill the existing openings with polyurethane foam
to secure it in place, making sure that the clamps "F"
are left free. (Fig. 2 and Fig. 3)
7.- Mount the architrave stops "I" (Fig. 2) and fix them
with knob "J". For architraves mounted on jambs more
than 20mm thick you need to adjust the architrave
stop supplements (L) (included in the template) to the
required size. If there is any difference in size between
the upper joint limiters (I) and the sides with respect to
the architraves (K) this can be corrected using the joint
limiter extensions (L).
8.- Insert polyurethane foam in the outer architraves
and mount them using the architrave stops as reference.
Secure them using nails, clips or pins etc.
9.- Remove clamps "F" (Fig. 2) and fill in the openings
they leave using the same polyurethane foam and then
mount the inner architrave in the same way described
above in point 8. Use the outer sides of the template
as reference and secure them in place in the same way
as for the outer architraves.
10.- Leave the polyurethane foam to set properly. During
this time the next door can be prepared, starting at
point 3 in section 6.1.1.
Removing the template
Having checked that the mounting is correctly secured
you can now remove the template.
11.- Loosen knobs "J" (Fig. 2), separate the lower the
architrave stops "I".
12.- Remove the template by moving it towards the
opening side of the door with no need for readjustment,
as it can then be used to mount the next door to the
same sizes as the previous one.
6.1.2. MOUNTING A NEW JAMB USING
THE EXISTING DOOR
1.- Remove the door and the fittings left on the jamb.
Check the gain to see there is no remai-
ning paint, nails, varnish etc.
2.- Insert the template in the jamb and adjust it for
width and height and incline that it might have using
the adjustment knobs.
This way all the possible defects existing on the jamb
are copied so that the door can then be replaced in the
same position.
To mount the new jambs follow the instructions from
point 3 in section 6.1.1.
7. RECOMMENDATIONS
We recommend that the doors, jambs and architraves are
cut and adjusted in the workshop, as well as the slots for
hinges, locks and bolts. This considerably reduces the time
needed for mounting and gives a better quality finish.
