| 1.
Cut two vertical rails to required
heights, allowing 3/4" to 1"
for overlap of the door opening at
the top. Vertical rails should be
3' shorter than the overall door height
to allow for the aluminum bottom rail.
2.
Cut the required number of girts
to correct widths. Suggest doors
overlap jambs 1 on each side: 2
1/2" it Combo No. 190500 Keeper-Stoppers
are used. Use a 2" x 6"
for the bottom girt. Recommended
girt spacing is 24" on centers
for 2" x 4"s; 30"
on centers for 2" x 6''s. Drill
top girt for mounting trolley hangers.
3.
Lay vertical rails with J-trim facing
down on a flat, even surface and
insert all girts into the verticals,
as shown in Figure 1. Allow the
2" x 6" bottom girt to
drop 3" below the verticals
for mounting the aluminum bottom
rail.
4.
Attach the vertical rails to the
girts by using one 1 1/2" nail
at each joint.
5.
Diagonally square the door frame,
as shown in Figure 2. Adjust as
needed and secure with a second
1 1/2" nail at each joint.
6.
Turn frame over, re-square. and
secure with one 1 1/2" nail
at each joint. Completed assembly
will have two 1 1/2" nails
in the back and one 1 1/2"
nail in the front at each joint.
7.
Using a skill saw or snips, notch
the aluminum bottom rail for mating
with the vertical rails, as shown
in Figure 3. Attach the aluminum
bottom rail to the 2" x 6"
bottom girt with nails driven up
through the bottom and above the
stiffener.
8.
Apply skin, install trolley hangers,
door hardware and optional weather
stripping (See Figure 4). Hang door(s)
on building, as explained on the
back page.
9.
For double or split slide doors,
substitute one No. SDR1600HV "H"
Vertical Rail in place of No. SDR1600AV.
No. SDR1600HC "H" Closure
Rail may be used, if preferred.
Allow for "H" rails when
cutting door girts.

1.
Cut two vertical rails to required
heights, allowing 3/4" to 1"
for overlap of the door opening at
the top. Vertical rails should be
1 shorter than the overall door height
to allow for the bottom rail.
2. Cut the required
number of girts to correct widths.
Suggest doors overlap jambs 1 1/2"
on each side; 2 1/2" if Combo
No. 190500 Keeper-Stoppers are used.
Recommended girt spacing is 24"
to 30" on centers. Cut the
bottom rail to the same width as
the girts. Drill the top girt
for mounting trolley hangers.
3. Lay vertical
rails with J-trim facing down on
a flat, even surface and insert
all girts and bottom rail into the
verticals, as shown in Figure 1.
Face the bottom rail stiffener downward
to fit against the J-trim on the
verticals, as shown in Figure 5.
4. Attach the vertical
rails to the girts and bottom rail
using on 1" TEK screw at each
joint.
5. Diagonally square
the door frame, as shown in Figure
2. Adjust as needed and insert a
second 1" TEK screw at each
joint.
6. Turn frame over, re-square and
secure the front of the verticals
to the girts with one
1" TEK screw at each joint.
Completed assembly will have two
1" TEK screws in back and one
1" TEK screw in front at each
joint. Note: If the flat of the
steel skin is to be inserted into
the small J-trim (Figure 4),
attachment of the front screws should
be delayed until after the skin
is installed.
7. Apply skin, install
trolley hangers, door hardware and
optional weather stripping
(Figure 4). Hang door(s) on building,
as explained on the last page.
8. Install the bottom
guide rail, as explained on the
back page.
9. For double or
split slide doors, substitute one
No. SDR1600HV "H" Vertical
Rail in
place of No. SDR1600AV. No. SDR1600HC
"H" Closure Rail may be
used, if preferred. Allow for "H"
rails
