Sliding Grill, Folding Grill , Folding Door Installation Instructions

1 - HEIGHT
Check that the opening sizes, height and width correspond to the dimensions on the drawing. If not, check with agent before proceeding.

2 - TRACK SUPPORT
Before starting the installation, check the bulkhead to verify the strength to support the closure weight, specially in the pocket area. A minimum thickness of 1-1/2" of wood is required.  If in doubt, check with agent before proceeding.

3 - CLEARANCE
Before proceeding, be sure that you have a clearance of four(4) inches on each side of the center line of the track, all along the closure.  Be sure    that the pocket depth is sufficient to stack the closure.  This depth should be approximately 1/7 of the clear opening.   If not, check with agent before proceeding.

4 TRACK
Install the curves first, then continue using the longest track sections next.  The screws should be centered 6" apart in curves and pocket and 12" elsewhere and at each end.  Alingment flatbar and pins (see drawing) are supplied to help join the different sections of track.  Keep one joint open to insert all closure trolleys.  It is very important that each cut is squared.

5 - PARTITION
Insert all trolleys per section of closure into the track, making sure that each trolley wheel is in the same direction Section A from the locking end, (opposite to the pocket).  Screw the wall jamb to the wall.  Screw or rivet the other sections together.  Extend the closure across the opening.  When there is no pocket, screw the fixed end post to opposite wall (installation between jambs).

6 - FLOATING END POST (when there is a pocket)
a) Lock the lead post to the wall striker.
b) Extend the closure up to the pocket and pull using light pressure.
c) Mark the track in front of the hanging rod holding the floating end post for the track blocking (see drawing).
d) Mark the floor just in front of this post for the "V" guide.
e) Stack the closure in the pocket and screw the track blocking to the ceiling and the "V" guide to the floor.

7 - BI-PART
When the closure is made of two parts closing in the center, (bi-part) with pockets at each end, lock the two parts together in the center and proceed as in #6.

8 - FLOOR SOCKETS

a) Lock the closure.
b) Locate and mark on the floor the bolt positions of the intermediate posts, making sure the sections are evenly distributed.
c) Stack the closure in the pocket.
d) Drill holes with 7/8" drill bit and install floor sockets.
Be carefull not to break the tiles or damage the carpets.

9 - CLEAN AND LUBRICATE THE ENTIRE TRACK (with a good quality synthetic grease).

10 - CHECK THE INSTALLATION

a) Locks and shootbolts should operate without resistance
b) Open and close the closure several times to be sure that it operates easily.
