INSTALL THE DooR JAMBS
The following steps describe one way to set the door jambs.
Using the dimensions from the
1.
Door Frame Layout located in the
Quick Start
section, locate and mark the positions of the door jambs.
Dig a 10"-12" diameter hole at the locations found in previous step to
2.
a depth that is
below the geographic frost line
. (Minimum depth: 24".)
Locate the 120" door jambs (105488120). Using a metal saw, cut and
3.
remove the 2-1/2" sections from one end of each door jamb as shown
in photo A.
This creates a lip and allows the jamb to be attached to the
girt (see photo B and C).
ATTeNTIoN:
Diagrams A-D show the left door jamb only.
Adjust cuts
when cutting the end for the right jamb.
Using the diagrams as a guide, attach each jamb to the girts using
4.
108553 wafer head screws as shown in photo C, D, and E. (Install
end wall girts if needed.)
ATTeNTIoN:
Position the door jambs so the open sides of the
C-channel face away from the door opening (as shown in the photo
C) and the lip overlaps the girt. When attached to the girt, the lower
end of each jamb extends into a ground anchor hole and is secured in
place using concrete.
Consult a knowledgeable contractor if needed.
When installing the lower girts (if needed) of the end wall, verify that
the inside-to-inside dimension for the door frame remains consistent.
