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. ese are used to hold the door  
in place while shimming it plumb and square.  
D. 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.

M. check door operation. Open and close the  
door to check for proper operation. Make sure  
the door will latch correctly.  
Note: If there are any problems with the  
operation, check to confirm the door frame  
is installed plumb, level and square. If the  
reveal between the door panel(s) and frame is  
not even, adjustments may be made:  
Doors without adjustable hinges: Plastic  
shims located behind the hinges may be  
removed to adjust the reveal between the door  
panel and door frame. Additional hinge shims  
may be added if required.  
adjustable Hinge non-adjustable Hinge  
Note: Doors with adjustable hinges will have a (+)(-) on the door panel hinge leaf to  
indicate possible adjustments and doors without adjustable hinges do not have adjustment  
indicators.  
Adjustable hinges are not designed to make up for incorrect installation of a door frame.  
Before adjusting hinges, confirm the door is installed plumb, level and square.  
N. For Doors with adjustable hinges: e hinges can be used to move the panel side to side by  
moving all hinges in the same direction or the hinges can slightly rotate the panel by adjusting  
the hinges in opposite directions. Use a T20 Torx wrench for Architect Series Doors or a 1/8”  
Allen wrench for Designer Series doors to turn the center screw clockwise (+) to increase the  
space between the hinge side of the frame and door panel. Turn the center screws counter-  
clockwise (-) to decrease the space between the hinge side of the frame and the door panel .  
Note: Do not adjust the hinge with the top and bottom screws loose; this could force the  
hinge to adjust beyond its design capability which can cause the hinge to bind, damage the  
hinge and/or pull out the screws. A ¾ turn of the center screw provides approximately 5/32”  
adjustment.  
O. on doors with a lock strike in the side, drill  
3O

a 1/8” diameter x 2” deep pilot hole into the  
rough opening through the two pre-drilled  
holes in the frame. One pre-drilled frame hole  
is located in the center lock strike hole and the  
other is the upper frame corner installation  
hole approximately 8” from the top of the  
door frame head. Insert a #8 x 3” screw  
(provided) into the pilot hole making sure it  
passes through the shim and into the rough  
opening framing.

Note: e 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.  
A. apply side ashing 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 on each side. 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.

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 installation instructions; or the use of Pella products  
in wall systems which do not allow for proper management of moisture within the wall  
systems. e 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 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 installation  
instructions.
