Make sure the Sure View Screen will
fit the door. The Sure View Screen will
accommodate a door opening of up to
36” (914 mm) wide and 81 1/4” (2,064
mm) high. If the door opening is larger
than this, the Sure View Screen can still
be installed by attaching a filler strip
under the door frame to reduce the height
of the door opening. Refer to page 6 for
details.
Is the Door Opening Square?
For the Sure View Screen to operate
effectively, the door opening must be
perfectly square. Using a Carpenter
Square, check to ensure that the door
frame is square. If not, use shims to bring
the door frame to square before beginning
installation.
Is this Sure View Screen being installed
on a Left Hinged Door?
Is there enough Mounting Surface for the
Sure View Screen?
Finally, make sure the right model has
been purchased! The Sure View Screen
in this package is configured for a
“LEFT” hinged door. To identify door
hinging, look at the door from the side
on which the Sure View Screen will be
mounted. The hinges should be on the
left side and the door knob or handle

Measuring the Door Opening
Now it's time to measure the door
opening. The Sure View Screen will
accommodate a door opening of up to 36”
(914 mm) wide and 81 1/4” (2,064 mm)
high. If the door opening is smaller than
this, the Sure View Screen will have to be
cut.
W
For the width, measure the dimension between
the right and left sides of the door frame at both
the top and bottom of the doorway as indicated in
the diagram. Record the smallest of the two sizes
in the box labeled “Width” below.
For the height, measure the dimension between
the top of the door frame and the door sill at the
point where the Sure View Screen will be installed.
We recommend positioning the Sure View Screen
flush with the outside edge of the door frame (the
furthest point away from the door). Measure from
the top of the door frame to the door sill at a point
1 5/8” (42 mm) back from the outside edge of the
door frame. (A) Measure in all three locations and
record the smallest dimension in the box labeled
“Height” below.

NOTE: If the door opening is too high, a
filler strip must be installed before the Sure
View Screen can be installed. The filler
strip must reduce the door opening to
81 1/4" (2,064 mm) or less. All measurements
must be made after the filler strip has been
installed.

Installing the Screen Housing Assembly
Securing the Mounting Bracket
The Mounting Bracket of the Sure View Screen is installed on the left inside
surface of the door frame. The ideal minimum dimension of this surface is
1 5/8” (42 mm). This surface must be perfectly flat and at a right angle (90º) to
the door.
If the mounting surface is greater than 1 5/8” (42 mm), the Mounting Bracket
can be positioned anywhere on this surface. We recommend positioning the
Mounting Bracket flush with the edge of the door frame (the furthest point away
from the door.)
1. Locate the “L” shaped edge of the Mounting
Bracket. (A) The Mounting Bracket will be
positioned with this edge closest to the door.
2. Remove the adhesive strip on the back of the
Mounting Bracket and position on the mounting
surface. (B)
3. Using a level, adjust the Mounting Bracket to
ensure that it is positioned plumb.
4. Attach the Mounting Bracket to the door frame
using the 5/8” (16 mm) Pan
Head Screws provided.

Bracket. This line should be at a 90º angle to the
mounting surface on which the Mounting Bracket
was attached. (B) Once aligned, press the Top Rail
firmly into place (C) and secure with the 1 1/4”

Service and Maintenance Hints
The Sure View Screen is designed and engineered
to be maintenance free. Please review these helpful
hints to ensure the smooth operation of the
Sure View Screen for years to come:
•
All moving components used in the Sure View Screen are
manufactured from a mixture of nylon and other materials.
This combination of compounds is strong, impact resistant,
and self-lubricating. Do not use oil, grease, or oil based
sprays or lubricants on any of the components on the Sure
View Screen. These products attract dirt and debris, and
may cause the Sure View Screen to react abnormally.
However, the periodic application of a dry silicon
lubricant to the moving parts is permissible.
•
We recommend that while not in use, the Sure View Screen
be kept in the retracted position. This will help extend the
life of the screen mesh. In the retracted position, the mesh is
protected and kept clean.
•
•
The Bottom Rail should be kept free of dirt and debris. Use
a broom to remove any obstructions from the Bottom Rail.
If the screen mesh becomes damaged or torn, a
Replacement Mesh Cartridge can be purchased
separately through your local dealer or retailer.
* Before installing the Sure View Screen, please
take the time to read the installation instructions
thoroughly.
