Preparing the Opening
WeatHerStrIPS (May NOt Be INcLuDeD):
Depending on the size of your door, you may have to cut or trim the weatherstrips (if necessary)
to properly fit into the header and jambs.
NOte: If nailing product at 40°F or below, pre-drilling is required.
NOte: Do not permanently attach weatherstrips to the header and jambs at this time.
For Quick Install track: For the header, align the weatherstrip with the inside edge of the header
and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the
jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header
and flush with the inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally
spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the
opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12" to 18" apart.
For Fully Adjustable track: For the header, align the weatherstrip 1/8" to 1/4" inside the header
edge, and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side
of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the
header and 1/8" to 1/4" inside the jamb edge. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally
spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the
opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12" to 18" apart.
