WOOD SPACER 8 FIGURE 18 Install the Drip Cap DRIP CAP The drip cap goes above the door and z-bars. Place the top drip cap into position as shown in Figure 18. The drip cap notch and the z-bar notch should nest together for a good fit. Allow 1/16"­1/8" gap between the drip cap and the top of the door. The door should close freely without hitting the drip cap, but also make good contact with the weatherstripping. Attach the drip cap with the #8x1" painted pan head screws provided (Figure 15). If needed, a shim can be added between drip cap and brickmold for a tighter fit (Figure 18). 1/4" SHIM (IF HEIGHT IS 80-3/4"­81") TOP RAIL OF STORM DOOR 4 WOOD-CORE OVERLAP RS 202220574 9 Install Latch Side Z-Bar Determine Top: First, determine which end of the Z-bar is top and mark it with a piece of tape.

Installation: Set the Z-bar in place between the door and wood jamb. Allow a 1/16" to 1/8" gap between the door and the latch side Z-bar. Make sure the door closes freely without hitting the Z-bar, but also makes good contact with the weatherstripping. Refer to Figure #14 for approximate z-bar to edge-of-door alignment. Using #8x1 painted panhead screws (Figure 15), fasten Z-bar through the pre-drilled holes provided. Larson offers three types of z-bars. The style will vary based on the handle set of your model. · Surface-mount Figure 16 · Mortise with deadbolt Figure 17 · Mortise without deadbolt Figure 18 FIGURE 16 SURFACE MOUNT FIGURE 17 MORTISE WITH DEADBOLT FIGURE 18 MORTISE WITHOUT DEADBOLT MORTISE HOLE COVER OPENING HEIGHT OPENING HEIGHT OPENING HEIGHT Install the Mortise Hole Cover on the hinge-side edge of door to cover up hole.

[. . . ] This is NOT a real brass product. ) BRASS FINISH MAINTENANCE A number of Larson storm door models incorporate high quality "real" brass component parts. As with all brass products, tarnishing will occur. Without proper care, brass can become stained so heavily that cleaning cannot totally remove the stain. In extreme cases of neglect, pitting can occur. [. . . ]
