..........* The Jamb Extension can be flipped and rotated to accommodate a
.............4 9/16” Jamb width (C-2) or a 5” Jamb width (C-1).
.......** Casing supplied by customer.
....... ....When installing casing, take care to allow enough setback from the
.............jamb edge so that it is not struck by the latch bolt as door is closed.
C)
Installing the Jamb Extensions
1)
Orient the bullnose (rounded corner) on the jamb extensions as shown in
diagram 4. Measure your jambs and cut the jamb extension to the appropriate
length.
2) The face of the jamb
extension should be flush with the face of the finished wall. Depending
on the thickness of the wall covering, you may need to rip or plane the
jamb extensions to the correct width before installing them. Hint: You
can place the fasteners on the jamb exten- sions in a way that they are
hidden by the molding.
3)
On the non-opening side of the door, pre-drill (bit size determined by
your finishing nail size) and install the jamb extensions to the jamb.
See diagram 4.
D)
Installation of Hardware and Pine Plugs
Note: The lever should be on top with the keyhole plate
below. If it isnt, turn over the lockset as described above.
1)
To install the handles and keyhole covers (or optional toggle locks),
slightly turn the first screw into the female receptacle. This will make
it easier to start the second screw. Once both screws are started, tighten
them down. Be careful not to over tighten.
2)
For double doors, drill a hole
into the head jamb to receive the passive latch bolt. Install the metal
plate to fit over the hole where it will receive the passive latch bolt.
3) Finally,
insert the pine plugs in the jamb screw holes. Hint: Align the wood grain
for a professional appearance. A small dab of wood glue will help secure
the wood plugs.
4)
Enjoy your new door!
