SETTING AND FASTENING THE DOOR  
2
A. Remove plastic wrap and cardboard packaging from door. Do not remove plastic  
shipping spacers. The shipping spacers will help keep the door square during installation.  
DO NOT unlock or open the door until it is fully fastened.  
Note: If screens, grilles or hardware are removed from the door at this time, label them  
and store them in a protected area.  
2B  
B. Fold out installation fin to 90°. Be careful not to remove or tear  
the fin corners.  
Note: If the fin is not at 90°, the door will not line up correctly  
on the interior.  
2C  
C. Place three 3/8" beads of sealant. The first bead should be  
approximately 3/4" from the exterior of the rough opening, the  
second bead should be placed so it is under the wood interior  
threshold of the door. Placement will vary depending on wall  
thickness and door type. Place a third bead of sealant in the groove of  
the sill support or 1/4" from the exterior edge of the wood blocking.

D. Insert the door from the exterior of the building. DO NOT  
slide the bottom of the door into the opening. Sliding will  
damage the sealant lines. Place the bottom of the door at the  
bottom of the opening, then tilt the top into position. Center  
the door between the sides of the opening to allow clearance for  
shimming, and insert one roofing nail in the first hole from the  
corner on each end of the top nailing fin. These are used to hold  
the door in place while shimming it plumb and square.

E. Plumb and square door. Place shims at each hinge and lock  
strike location between the door and the sides of the opening.  
Insert shims in other locations as needed starting up 6" from  
the bottom of the door to square it in the opening. Make sure  
that the reveal around the door(s) is equal. On double doors,  
make sure that panels are even across the bottom.

INTEGRATING THE DOOR TO THE  
WATER RESISTIVE BARRIER  
Note: The flashing tape must be applied approximately 1/2"  
onto the frame cladding at the jambs and head. Pre-folding the  
tape at 1/2" before removing the paper backing will make it  
easier to apply the tape correctly. If the siding is less than 1/2"  
thick, adjust the dimension of the fold so the exterior sealant  
line will cover the exterior edge of the tape.  
3
A. Apply side flashing tape. Cut two pieces of flashing tape  
4" longer than the frame height of the door. Apply one  
piece 1/2" onto the frame cladding, over the nailing fin  
and onto the water resistive barrier. The tape should extend  
2" above the top of the door and 2" below the bottom of  
the door. Press the tape down firmly while folding down  
the excess tape at the top and bottom of the door.

B. Apply top flashing tape. Cut a piece of flashing tape long  
enough to go across the top of the door and extend at least  
1" past the side flashing tape on both sides. Apply the tape  
1/2" onto the frame cladding, over the top nailing fin as  
shown. Fold the overlapping tape down, and press all tape  
down firmly.  
Ex  
t
er  
ior  
Note: The top flashing tape must overlap the  
side flashing tape to prevent water from getting  
behind it.

D. Apply flashing tape to diagonal cuts. Cut pieces of  
flashing tape at least 1" longer than the diagonal cuts  
in the water resistive barrier. Apply the tape covering  
the entire diagonal cut in the water resistive barrier  
at both upper corners of the door.

INTERIOR SEAL  
4
Caution: Ensure use of low pressure polyurethane window  
and door insulating foams and strictly follow the foam  
manufacturer’s recommendations for application. Use of  
high pressure foams or improper application of the foam  
may cause the door frame to bow and hinder operation.  
I

t
er  
ior  
A. Apply insulating foam sealant. From the interior, insert  
the nozzle of the applicator approximately 1" deep into  
the space between the door and the rough opening and  
apply a 1" deep bead of foam. This will allow room  
for expansion of the foam and will minimize squeeze  
out. If using insulating foam other than Great Stuff ™  
Window and Door Insulation Foam by the Dow Chemical  
Company, allow the foam to cure completely (usually 8 to 24 hours)  
before proceeding to the next step.  
4A  
Note: DO NOT completely fill the space from the back of the fin to the interior face of the  
opening.  
B. Check the door operation by opening and closing the door.  
Note: If the door does not operate correctly, check to make sure it is still plumb, level,  
square and that the sides are not bowed. If adjustments are required, remove the foam  
with a serrated knife. Adjust the shims, and reapply the insulating foam sealant.  
SEALING THE DOOR TO THE EXTERIOR WALL CLADDING  
5
When applying siding, brick veneer or other exterior finish material, leave adequate  
space between the door frame and the material for sealant. Refer to the illustration that  
corresponds to your finish material.  
Note: The sealant details shown are standard recommendations from the sealant industry.  
Contact your sealant supplier for recommendations and instructions for these and any  
other applications.

A. Install the hardware. Refer to the instructions included in  
the hardware box.  
B. Insert backer rod into the space around the door 3/8" to  
1/2". This should provide at least a 3/8" clearance between  
the backer rod and the exterior face of the door.  
Note: Backer rod adds shape and depth for the  
sealant line.  
5B  
C. Apply a bead of high quality exterior grade sealant  
to the entire perimeter of the door. At each end of the  
bottom of the door, insert sealant into the spaces between  
the bottom of the door and the sill support and  
connect it to the perimeter sealant.  
D. Shape, tool and clean excess sealant. When finished,  
5C  
the sealant should be the shape of an hourglass.  
Note: This method creates a more flexible sealant  
line capable of expanding and contracting.  
E. Remove plastic guards at the base of the door once  
construction is complete.  
INTERIOR FINISHING  
If products cannot be finished immediately, cover with clear plastic to protect from dirt, damage  
and moisture. Remove any construction residue before finishing. Sand all wood surfaces lightly  
with 180 grit or finer sandpaper. DO NOT use steel wool. BE CAREFUL NOT TO SCRATCH  
THE GLASS. Remove sanding dust.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Care and maintenance information is available in the Pella Owner’s Manual. You can obtain  
an owner’s manual by contacting your local Pella retailer. is information is also available  
IMPORTANT NOTICE  
Because all construction must anticipate some water infiltration, it is important that the wall  
system be designed and constructed to properly manage moisture. Pella Corporation is not  
responsible for claims or damages caused by anticipated and unanticipated water infiltration;  
deficiencies in building design, construction and maintenance; failure to install Pella products in  
accordance with Pella’s installation instructions; or the use of Pella products in wall systems which  
do not allow for proper management of moisture within the wall systems. The determination of  
the suitability of all building components, including the use of Pella products, as well as the design  
and installation of flashing and sealing systems are the responsibility of the Buyer or User, the  
architect, contractor, installer, or other construction professional and are not the responsibility  
of Pella.  
Pella products should not be used in barrier wall systems which do not allow for proper  
management of moisture within the wall systems, such as barrier Exterior Insulation and Finish  
Systems, (EIFS) (also known as synthetic stucco) or other non-water managed systems. Except  
in the states of California, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado, Pella makes no  
warranty of any kind on and assumes no responsibility for Pella windows and doors installed  
in barrier wall systems. In the states listed above, the installation of Pella Products in barrier  
wall or similar systems must be in accordance with Pella’s installation instructions.  
Product modifications that are not approved by Pella Corporation will void the Limited Warranty.
