Backer Rod (backing material) material (e.g. foam rod) placed into a joint primarily to control the depth of the sealant. Exterior Buck or Bump Out Framing Typically a wood framework attached to the exterior face of the building. The framework should be structurally attached and sealed to the building. The door unit will be fastened to this framework. Hook strip Metal frame component that is positioned along the edge of the door opening to the exterior face of the building. This part serves to engage the last panel out of the pocket and form a weather seal. Interlock weatherstrip component that runs vertically along the stiles of sliding patio door panels. When the door is closed, the interlocks engage, locking together, to create a weather barrier. Liquid pplied Flashing or Membrane sealant-like material that is typically applied by brush or trowel to improve the water resistance of a substrate. Recessed Opening or Pocket recessed wall detail that forms a cavity, or pocket, on the exterior of the building. Generally, the finished exterior cladding (e.g. stucco) of the building forms the back wall of the pocket. Self-dhered Flashing (SF) n adhered backed tape material, generally not requiring mechanical fasteners, used to waterproof the rough opening and/or used to seal a patio door to the building s weather barrier. Shiplap The layering method in which each layer overlaps the layer below it so that water runs down and to the outside. Sill Pan flashing component installed in the sill of the rough opening underneath the door. Sill pans have upturned walls along the interior edge and at both ends, creating a three sided box. This component serves as a collection device to drain incidental water to the exterior of the building and should be properly sealed to the opening. The best sill pan design has a positive slope to the exterior and offers continuous support to the door s sill. Step-down Landing The interior floor surface is higher than the exterior surface. Weep Hole (weep channel) The visible exit or entry part of a water drainage system used to drain water out of a door. 1

3 LNDINGS These instructions cover three door sill conditions: the Step-Down landings, Continuous Slab landings and Dap Out. The installation methods vary slightly between landing types. Step-Down Landing Continuous Slab Landing Dap Out Landing 1 INSPECT FINISHED OPENING TTENTION! Pocketing door systems are generally installed into a recessed opening (pocket) on the exterior face of the building OR within bump out framing (exterior buck) off the face of the building. These openings are considered to be a finished opening and should be weather tight. Construction of these openings is left up to others. NOTE! Due to the potential size of the door unit, it is recommended that efforts be made to ensure the rough opening complies with plumb, level, square and scissor/twist identified below, prior to installing the door. These measurements will assist with installation efforts and improve operation and alignment of the door product. Verify Square, Level and Plumb B D C E Verify the finished opening is 1/2" larger in width and height than the main door frame. Verify the finished opening is square. The () and (B) measurements should be the same. Maximum allowable deviation from square is 1/8" for doors less than 20 square feet and 1/4" for doors over 20 square feet. Verify the finished opening is plumb and level (C) and (D). The maximum allowable deviation is 1/8". The finished opening sill must not be crowned or sagged (D), but rather be level or sloped (positive slope) to the exterior (e.g. chip outs and low spots should be filled. High spots should be ground level). The exterior face of the rough opening must be in a single plane (E) with less than 1/8" scissor/twist from corner to corner. Correct any deviations before installing the patio door. For Retrofit Installations fter removing the old patio door, remove sufficient cladding (siding, stucco, etc.) to expose enough intact building wrap to properly seal the patio door to the opening. If damaged, apply new building wrap in shiplap manner (nailing fin products only). Verify the rough opening framing is structurally sound. Contact your local waste management entities for proper disposal or recycling of products being removed. 2 FINISHED OPENINGS This installation guide specifically addresses Bump Out (Exterior Buck) and Recessed Opening (Pocket) wall details. Both door configurations (single pocket OR double pocket) can be installed into either type of opening. Bump Out (External Buck) This installation assumes an external frame work is weather tight and properly secured exterior face of the building. The framework material needs to thick enough so the screws used to secure the door can embed at least 1 into the framework. NOTE! Refer to local code OR Product pproval Document for fastener requirements. Recessed Cavity (Pocket) This installation assumes a recessed cavity has been built into the exterior wall and the opening is weather tight. 3

To avoid damage to the frame corners at least 3 people are required to properly support the door frame during placement into the opening (two for the head and one for the sill). 1. pply a 3/8" bead of sealant across the interior wall of the sill pan (shown) or back Sealant wall of the dap out. 2. For products that have a nail fin, run a continuous bead of sealant around the interior side of the nail fin on the sides and head. If the bottom nail fin will remain on the frame, run a discontinuous bead of sealant on the interior side of the nail fin (e.g. a 2" gap every 12"). 3. Position the door in front of the opening so that when installed the door frame side jamb will be 1/2" away from the side wall of the opening (this is needed for proper alignment of the hook strip). 4. With the proper side spacing, position the frame into the finished opening so that the back of the frame makes solid contact with the sealant in the sill pan or dap out. For product that has a nail fin, make sure the back of the nail fin makes even contact with the bump out framing. Setting the Frame Double Pocket Warning! To avoid injury, use at least 2 people to install. Support the door frame head track until adequate fastened. 1. Center the door frame head track in the opening (typically, there will be a 1/4" gap between the ends of the door frame and the sides of the opening). For products that have a nail fin, run a 3/8" of sealant the full length of the nail fin. 2. Initially, support the head track into the opening by partially driving a fastener at each end of the head track. NOTE! n additional fastener should be placed in the middle of larger spanning head tracks. 3. Position the door sill track in front of the opening. Center and then align the ends of the sill track directly below the ends of the head track. 4. Install the door frame sill track into the finished opening. Make sure the back of the track makes solid contact with sealant in the sill pan or back wall of the dap out. For products with a nail fin, make sure the back of the nail fin has even contact with the bump out framing. 5. Level the sill track within the opening (shim as needed). 6. Refer to next section for final frame fastening. 4" 5" 5. Initially, support the "open" end of the head track by partially driving a fastener through one of the pre-drilled holes in the frame. 6.

Secure the head of the door frame. For Box Frame/Non-Nail fin product place a screw through one of the pre-drilled holes in the head track. Use shims as needed for spacing and to prevent frame deflection/rotation. For Nail Fin product place a screw through the nail fin at 4" from the corner. Place an additional screw through the pre-drilled hole in the frame track approximately 5" if from the corner. Use shims as needed to prevent frame deflection/rotation. NOTE! Refer to the Product pproval Document for type, size and spacing of fastener. 3. Continue to fasten the head of the door frame by placing fasteners in each pre-drilled hole in the head track. t each new fastener location, double check that the head track is level and take periodic measurements between the head and sill track to ensure equal spacing is maintained. For product with a nail fin, apply additional fasteners through the nail fin as prescribed in the Product pproval Document. 9

10 7 INSTLL FRME CONTINUED Sealing of the Door Frame For Box frame/non-nail fin doors, the frame will be sealed to the finished opening with the use of backer rod and sealant. 1. Surfaces should be dry and cleaned of debris and dust. 2. pply backer rod between the door frame and the finished opening. The backer rod should be pushed in far enough to create a joint depth that is 1/2 deep as wide (e.g. 1/4" deep x 1/2" wide). 3. Depending on the door frame configuration, backer rod should be applied along the side jamb of the door frame and/or head jamb of the door frame. 4. continuous sealant bead (recommend sealant be color-matched to exterior of building) should be applied atop of the backer rod. NOTE! The sealant bead should be tooled until smooth and even. Texture can be added for aesthetic appeal. For nail fin door frames, it is assumed the nail fin will be covered by some form of decorative trim (e.g. trim board). 1. If the exterior cladding has been cut back to install the door, then selfadhered flashing should be applied over the nail fin to integrate the fin with the weather resistive barrier of the building. NOTE! The flashing should be applied in a ship lapped manner. 2. If the exterior cladding has not been cut back then an additional layer of liquid applied membrane, or sealant, can be applied atop of the nail fin. Installation of Hook Strip NOTE! The hook strip is designed to be placed on the exterior of the building and serves to engage and form a weather seal with the last panel out of the pocket. Sealant should be applied to the back side of each nail fin of the hook strip. dditionally, fasteners should be placed through both the interior and exterior nail fins. 1. Dry fit the hook strip(s) to ensure a proper fit between the interior most wall of the sill OR sill riser and the underside of the head track (the hook strip should fit snug between the underside of the head track and the top of the sill or sill riser). 2. Remove and apply a continuous 3/8" bead of sealant on the back side of the hook strip surfaces and B. B Installation of Sill Riser NOTE! The sill riser is required on some door units in order reach a higher Performance Grade and to resist water. Failure to install the sill riser may compromise the ability of the door unit to perform as designed. 1. pply silicone to the underside of the sill riser. Sealant should be applied continuously from end to end. 2. Position the sill riser atop of the inner most wall of the sill. 3. pply sill riser onto the sill with a mallet. Make sure the sill riser is fully locked onto the sill from end to end. Engagement points 3. pply sealant to the top edge of the sill OR sill riser that will make contact with the hook strip. 4. Position the hook strip on the exterior wall surface of the building. Make sure there is adequate contact between the sealant and the wall ND the hook strip is plumb within the opening. 5. If not already done so, predrill fastener locations on both surfaces ( and B) of the hook B strip. Use a 3/16" 1/4" drill bit depending on the size of fastener required to generate holes in hook strip. Fastener spacing should be 6" from each end and no more than 12" on center in between. 6. Fasten hook strip with the appropriate type of fastener (based on substrate). Refer to Product pproval Document. (Double check that hook strip is plumb within opening). 7. Repeat at opposite end of opening for a double pocket unit. 8. pply adhesive-backed weather stripping pads at the top of and bottom of the hook strip. NOTE! The pads should cover the seam between the head track and/or sill track and hook strip. 9. Make sure the hook strip(s) are integrated in a weather-tight manner. 10
