Graduated Hinge Attachment

Tools Required: Power drill, 7/16” Socket driver, Safety glasses, Leather gloves

NOTE:

Refer to door section identification, located in the pre-installation section of this

manual or refer to Parts Breakdown.

NOTE:

The graduated end and center hinges can be identified by the number stamped onto

their lower hinge leaf.

NOTE:

The #1, #2, #3, #4 graduated end hinges (Wide body) serves as end hinges on all

sections, except for the top section.

NOTE:

The #1 Center hinge(s) (Narrow body) serves as center hinges on all sections, except

for the top section.
Locate the bottom section, (2) #1 graduated end hinges (wide body) for the end stiles and

depending on the width of your door, enough #1 center hinge(s) (narrow body) for each of

the pre-marked center hinge locations. Starting on the left hand side of the bottom section,

align the lower hinge leaf of the #1 graduated end hinge over the holes, located at the top

of the end caps. Also, align the lower hinge leafs of the #1 center hinges (narrow body) with

the pre-marked locations at the center locations at the top of the section. Attach lower hinge

leafs to the section using 1/4” - 14 x 7/8” self drilling screws, as shown.

IMPORTANT:

ONCE THE 1/4” - 14 X 7/8” SELF DRILLING SCREWS ARE SNUG AGAINST THE

LOWER HINGE LEAFS, TIGHTEN AN ADDITIONAL 1/4 TO 1/2 TURN TO RECEIVE MAXIMUM

DESIGN HOLDING POWER.

IMPORTANT:

PUSH & HOLD THE HINGE LEAF SECURELY AGAINST THE SECTION WHILE

SECURING WITH 1/4” - 14 X 7/8” SELF DRILLING SCREWS. THERE SHOULD BE NO GAP
