• All cuts should be from the top of the astragal.
• If the trim strip is present, remove from the astragal body.
• The maximum cut down length for the Ultimate Trilennium Astragal is dependent upon the handle height of the lock:
• For 6/8 Astragals, the minimum length of the astragal is the handle height + 38".
• For 7/0 Astragals, the minimum length of the astragal is the handle height + 38" OR a total length of 74" - whichever
is greater.
• For 8/0 Astragals, the minimum length of the astragal is the handle height + 48-3/8" OR a total length of 86" -
whichever is greater.
• Example: For a 6/8 Astragal with a handle height of 36", the minimum astragal length would be 74" (36" + 38" = 74")
Important Notes:
• Pencil/Marker
• Tape Measure
• Chop Saw
Tools Required:
STEP 1: INITIAL PREPARATION
a. Remove the spine assembly
from the upper half of the
astragal body. Set aside for
reinstallation.
b. Remove the orange securing
pin from the upper bolt.
d. Remove the upper trim cap,
and tail cap if present, from the

STEP 2: CUT ASTRAGAL TO SIZE
a.Measure the length of the door panel (X) and the length
of the astragal (Y) on the narrow edge.
Y
X
b. Round the length of the door panel (X) and the length of the astragal (Y) down to the
closest half inch. Subtract the rounded length of the door panel from the rounded length of
the astragal to determine your index number.
Example:
To determine index number:
• If the astragal length is 79-1/4", round it down to 79".
• If the length of the door panel is 75-3/4", round it down to 75-1/2".
• 79" - 75-1/2" = 3-1/2 is the index number.
b. Insert the tail cap onto the narrow side
of the astragal body.
If drive rods are in the way of the cut down, slide further into the astragal or remove temporarily to
avoid damage to them.

STEP 2 (CONT.): CUT ASTRAGAL TO SIZE
STEP 3: REINSTALL UPPER BOLT
a. Reinstall the upper trim cap. b. Slide the drive rods out to
expose the notches.
c. Replace the upper bolt into the notches on the
driver rod and slide the bolt back into the astragal
body so the end of the bolt sleeve is ush with the
end of the astragal.
d. Replace the orange securing
pin into the hole in the bolt sleeve
that aligns with the holes in the
astragal body.
If drive rods are in the way of the cut down, slide further into the astragal or remove
temporarily to avoid damage to them.
!
b. To renotch the astragal measure 9/16" from the cut end
of the astragal. Using a chop saw, cut at this point, until the
space between the rows of holes in the astragal body. Do not
cut it ush.

STEP 4: RESIZE AND REINSTALL SPINE ASSEMBLY
STEP 5: CONFIRM FLIP LEVER OPERATION
Engage the ip lever assembly and ensure both the
upper and lower bolts move out smoothly.
a. Before replacing the spine assembly, adjust the length using index number from Step 2.
Example: If index number is 3-1/2", to appropriately resize the spine assembly, remove one 1/2"
spacer and three 1" spacers.
ADJUST 1/2" INCREMENTSADJUST 1" INCREMENTS
Identify the number
of 1" segments
needing to be
removed.
Rotate the identied
segments 90° to
unlock them from
the spine.
Pull the rotated
segments off of the
spine and discard.
Identify the number of
1/2" segments needing
to be removed.
Rotate the spine head
and rst segment to
unlock them from the
spine.
Remove the spine head
and rst segment and
set aside. Rotate the
segments needing to
be removed.
Pull the rotated
segment off of the
spine and discard.
Keeping the spine head
rotated, reconnect
it to the remaining
segments and rotate it
back to snap into place.
b. Install the resized spine assembly into the astragal
body, keeping the long tabs of the spine segments
aligned with each other on the narrow side of the
astragal.
THIS SIDE UP
Long tabs must align with each other on the
narrow side of the astragal body.
