WARNING
The door should easily close without needing to be pressed down. If it has to be pressed
down to close, the gasket in the top of the door should be dressed so it lays on the glass.
Installing the glass door
1.
Visually inspect the gasket on the backside of the glass door.
NOTE:
The gasket surface must be clean, free of irregularities, and seated firmly. Ensure it is properly located.
Make sure the bead is not rolled into the channel at the top of the door, but remains flat against the top of the
glass.
2.
Position the door in front of the firebox opening with the bottom of the door held away from the fireplace at a
45° angle
(
Figure 49
).
Hook the top flange of the door frame over the top of the firebox frame.
NOTE:
Ensure the glass door is centered—with even spacing on each side.
3.
Let the bottom of the glass door swing gently in towards the fireplace ensuring that the gasket seats evenly
as the door draws shut. Securely fasten the two (2) latches beneath the firebox floor to the door V-flange.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The door must close without force. When installed properly, the bottom of the door should
not have interference with the fireplace in order to close. If it does, remove the door and inspect the door gasket
to ensure it is even and not rolled up at the top.
SEE WARNING IN Figure
49

4.
Install the barrier assembly.
Removing the glass door

Remove the barrier assembly
2.
Detach the door latches beneath the firebox floor.

for later reinstallation.
