The elements should be placed in the door
cavity and wedged up underneath the si-
deframes and mullions, if any. The sill
should be horizontal and level. It must not
under any circumstances curve upwards or
downwards.
Adjust the hinge side so it is in plumb on
both the wide and the narrow side. The hin-
ge side is then secured with suitable frame
bolts with permanent support.
On doors, the fixings in the hin-
ge side must be placed in the
rebate as close to the hinges
as possible, as the entire weight
of the door is centred here. We re-
commend this solution if possible
–
if not, securing with suitable iron-
mongery will be necessary.
During installation, the gap, i.e. the space
between the frame and sash, should be
adapted to the function of the element.
The closing side must be adjusted so that it
fits the frame and provides full closure.
When installing double doors it is important
that the doors close fully in the centre joint
and that the two door plates are flush. The
frame head must not curve downwards!
When the frame has been adjusted, se-
cure the rest of the elements with suitable
frame bolts with permanent support.
Door installation
Sideframes and head and sill on double
doors must be parallel and must not curve
inwards, as this will make operation diffi-
cult.
When the installation is complete, remove
the dust from the frame and ironmongery.
Lubricate all closing points and joints for
smooth and permanent function. We re-
commend brushing the weatherstrips with
a silicone stick.
Fixing should be with perma-
nent support, and an additio-
nal permanent support should
be placed behind the striking plate
in order to prevent burglaries. Al-
ways install extra permanent sup-
ports below hardwood and alumi-
nium sills.

Be aware that when installing the cy-
linder in the door, the arrow is facing
downwards on
both sides
