Measuring the
Door Opening
Now it's time to measure the door opening.
The Vista Plus Screen will accommodate a
door opening of up to 36” (914 mm) wide and
81 1/4” (2,064 mm) high. If the door opening is
smaller than this, the Vista Plus Screen will
have to be cut.
For the width,
measure the dimension between the right and
left sides of the door frame at both the top and bottom of the
doorway as indicated in the diagram. Record the smallest of
the two sizes in the box labeled
“Width”
below.
For the height,
measure dimension between the top of the
door frame and the door sill at the point where the Vista Plus
Screen will be installed. Seiki recommends positioning the
Vista Plus Screen flush with the outside edge of the door frame
(the furthest point away from the door.) Measure from the top
of the door frame to the door sill at a point 1 5/8” (42 mm)
back from the outside edge of the door frame.

Measure in
all three locations and record the smallest dimension in the box
labeled
“Height”
below.
NOTE: If the door opening is too high, a filler strip must be
installed before the Vista Plus Screen can be installed. The filler
strip must reduce the door opening to 81 1/4" (2,064 mm) or
less. All measurements must be made after the filler strip has
been installed.
