4.2 Installation Steps
- Prepare the Door Frame: Ensure your door frame is clean, level, and free of obstructions. Verify that the frame dimensions accommodate the door (Width: 49.5 cm, Height: 229.4 cm).
- Position the Door: Carefully lift the door and align its hinges with the pre-drilled holes or markings on your door frame. It may be helpful to have a second person assist with this step.
- Secure the Hinges: Using appropriate screws (not included, ensure they are suitable for your frame material), attach the hinges securely to the door frame. Start with the top hinge, then the bottom, and finally the middle hinges.
- Check Alignment: Once the door is loosely secured, open and close it a few times to check for smooth operation and proper alignment. Use a level to ensure the door is plumb.
- Tighten All Screws: Once satisfied with the alignment, fully tighten all screws on the hinges. Do not overtighten.
- Install Door Handle/Knob: Follow the instructions provided with your chosen door handle or knob to install it onto the door.
5. Operating the Door
The GRIMO Door operates like any standard hinged door. To open, push or pull the door using the installed handle or knob. To close, gently push the door until it rests against the door frame. Avoid slamming the door to prevent damage to the door, frame, or hinges.
6. Maintenance
