APPLYING INSTALLATION FINS

A. 

Cut the fins to length.

 Using the following 

formula, cut the fins to length, making sure 
the end cut is square on both ends.

Heads and Sills:  

Length = Frame width + 2-1/2"

Jambs:

  Length = Frame 2-1/2"

Jambs, if there is no fin at the sill:

  Length = Frame 1-1/4"

Combinations:

  Length = Combination 2-1/2"

B. 

Notch the ends of the fins.

 Measure and 

mark 1-7/16" from each end of the fins. Using 
a hacksaw, cut the fin receptor leg at the mark. 
Finish removing the bottom receptor legs by 
scoring the fin with a utility knife and snapping it 
off the fin.

Note: When using fins on all four sides, all ends 
must be notched. If no fin is used at the sill, DO NOT 
notch the bottom of the jamb fins.

C. 

Install the two side fins

 into the top of the frame 

jamb grooves located on the side frame members 
of the door. Slide the fins into place.

Note: Spray a solution of water and soap on the 
frame jamb grooves to reduce sliding friction.

D. 

Install and slide the top fin

 into the frame 

head groove located in the top frame member.

Note: The top fin must overlap the exterior 
of the side fins.
