THE MOST IMPORTANT CRITERIA FOR A SUCCESSFUL JOB ARE A SQUARE OPENING,
A RIGID HEAD AND A CLEAN TRACK.
It is recommended that All Weather doors are installed with at least two people; one person handling the door panels and the
other attaching and adjusting hardware.
The installation of your door system requires that the sill, head and jambs are perfectly straight and square. It is recommended
that the head be installed with a slight bow upward (amount specified in installation instructions). The sill should be installed flat
and straight, ensuring that there is no upward bowing. The frame should be checked for square and twist.
Assembly screws are provided by All Weather. Be sure to clean any metal shavings from the head track to avoid damage to the
rollers.
Ensuring your frame is square, plumb, and attached properly to an adequate header will alleviate problems in the future.
Installation of flashing to ensure a proper water seal is the responsibility of the installer. Local codes and building practices
should be applied.
All Weather doors require sill pans with rear leg (back dam) and recommends consultation with a water proofing consultant for an
adequate drainage system.
*IMPORTANT NOTICE* – READ PRIOR TO INSTALLATION.
An All Weather system is a specialty product that you cannot assume to be a standard installation of a typical door or
window.
All Weather products should be installed with overhead protection to prevent the effects of sheeting water from above.
We recommend that a professional waterproofing consultant be used to properly integrate our products into the weather
barrier of the wall structure.

Note: Opening should be flashed with the appropriate flashing material to meet industry standards. Please refer to Federal
Specification UU-B-790a and AAMA 2400-02.
Disclaimer: Each installation job has its unique set of challenges and circumstances. Because of that, the provided set of
installation instructions for All Weather Architectural Aluminum products is meant only to serve as a set of standardized
guidelines and NOT necessarily a strict manual to follow regardless of the situation.
As a professional, it is incumbent upon you and your team to identify instances that do not align with the Installation instruction
requirements. All installations must comply with AAMA specifications.
Accordingly, All Weather does not assume responsibility, and disclaims liability for damage, loss, or expense arising from
improper use or application of these installation instructions.
FRAME INSTALLATION
1. Verify that the rough opening is the correct size to assure the door will fit in the opening.
2. Check to ensure that the floor where the door will be installed is level. If the floor is not level, correct prior to installation.
3. Remove the frame components from its packaging and lay it out in front of the opening.
4. Prepare the Frame by applying compatible sealant around the perimeter of both ends of the frame head and sill (Sealant
should conform to AAMA 802.3-16 and 803.3-16). Use the screws (Part #2) provided in the hardware box (use sealant to
lubricate screws) to assemble the frame as shown in figures 1a and 1b.

5. Prepare rough opening by checking diagonal dimension of opening to verify square and apply water resistant barrier as shown
in figure 2a. Use steps A through C for applying water resistant barrier. Use step D for installation of sill pan.
A. 12" Sill Wrap (3" wrapped into opening); Overlaps where sill Self-Adhering Sheet Membrane (SASM) will be by 1"
(Self-adhered flashing is optional)
B. 12" Jamb SASM (3" wrapped into opening), overlaps Sill SASM by 1" and runs 2" beyond header opening
C. 6" Header Wrap (3" wrapped into opening), overlaps jamb SASM by 1"
D. (Sill pan is recommended on all door installs) Apply a ³⁄ 88 " bead of sealant around the perimeter of the bottom side of the sill
pan as shown in figure 2b (Sealant should conform to AAMA 802.3-16 and 803.3-16). Apply glue on the sill in the opening
to secure the sill pan.
6. Clean the exterior of the frame (including the nail-fin) with a moist rag (wetted with water) so that the frame and nail-fin are
free from dirt and other construction debris and dry it with a dry clean rag or allow it to air dry.

14. Temporarily adjust the panel upward by lifting the panel and turning the adjustment screw shown in figure 11a clockwise as
shown in figure 11b until the rollers regain contact with the track. It is important to physically lift the panel while adusting
upward so that the adjustment screw does not strip due to the weight of the panel. Adjust the rollers of the active panels by
turning the adjustment screw shown in figure 11a to achieve proper alignment of the door panels (it is easier to adjust down
than up). Turn screw clockwise to raise the panel and counterclockwise to lower the panel as shown in figure 11b.
15. Install the fixed panel into the exterior jamb track (Part #6). Secure fixed panel to the frame with the 2 screws (Part #3)
provided in the hardware box (use sealant to lubricate screws). Screw through the pre-drilled holes in the center weather strip
track of the jamb at 24" above the sill and 24" below the head as shown in figures 12a and 12b. For false jamb installation on
OXO doors, see Appendix A.

16. After the final roller adjustments, install the keeper (Part #8) into the lock side jamb (Part #6) by aligning with the lockset
hooks on the panel and marking the location of the keeper’s four screw holes onto the jamb. Next, pre-drill holes in the jamb
at the marked locations using a size ¹⁄ 88 " - ³⁄ 1616 " drill bit. Lastly, fasten the keeper to the jamb with screws (Part #1) as shown in
figure 13a (use sealant to lubricate screws). After the keeper has been installed, adjust the throw on the hooks of the lockset
to ensure a tight fit when the door is closed and locked by turning the adjustment screw located between the hooks shown in

1. After the operable panel is installed, install the left fixed panel (for OXO Left) or right fixed panel (for OXO right)
per Step 15 above.
Use 2 screws (Part #3 Pg. 1) 1 inch below the top of the fixed panel and 2 screws (Part #3 Pg. 1) 1 inch above the bottom of
the fixed panel to secure the false jamb.
2. Fill any gaps between false jamb and frame with silicone to make watertight.
