Adjusting the Door-Set
handling, the door-set may get out of adjustment. To adjust the door-set, first make sure the
frame is plum in the fireplace. Once you have established that, look at the trim around the glass.
This is the most likely place where an adjustment may be needed. The glass may have shifted
causing a gap between the end of the glass and the end caps, or it may have moved from side to
side. Using a rubber mallet, gently tap the end caps until they are against the glass or tap the
glass until it is centered with the cap. Again, these end caps and the glass may be tapped into
position. DO NOT USE A METAL FACED HAMMER or any other hard object which may cause
you to inadvertently dent or ding the caps, or chip the glass. You are looking for a 1/8" gap
between the two center pieces of glass and a 1/16" gap (or less) between the two pieces of glass
on each half of the door-set, and you should end up with about a 3/16" to 1/4" gap between the
two outer panels of glass and the frame. Once the above procedure is done, and the door-set still
needs adjustment, or alignment, then slightly loosen frame hinge screw on top and bottom (Fig
VI), adjust the door-set left to right or front to back as required, and tighten screws firmly.
