GLAZING THE DOOR
Glass setting blocks are installed, in their proper locations, in the factory. Glazing prior to installation is possible
(step 1). If the decision is made to glaze after the door is installed, skip step 1.
1. Lay door flat across two sawhorses (easiest); or, on protected floor (careful not to damage finish on door).
2. If glazing door after it is installed, lock door to prevent swinging.
3. Trim E.P.D.M. glazing gasket flush with ends of glass stops.
4. Remove glass stops on the side of door that is closest to you.
5. Turn glass jack in the top rail counter-clockwise until it is in retracted position flush with extrusion.
6. Be sure that the stops that remain are securely in place.
7. Place glass on the stops and against the setting blocks. If you are glazing the door in the installed position, it is
important to push glass firmly against the glass stops.
8. Adjust for gaps at the stiles.
9. Once the glass is in the correct position, screw down the glass jack to top of glass.
10. Install the glass stops — verticals first at 1/4”. Horizontals first at all other glass thickness. (See details below).
Note: Top stops are notched to clear glass jack. Be sure to hook the stop into the dovetails on the rails and stiles,
then snap in place. A mallet may be used to drive stops in place.
