Installation

1. INSTALL GUIDE WALL ANGLES
NOTE: It is only necessary to disassemble the guides for screw attachment
of "E" type guides. Welded "E" assemblies and all "Z" assemblies may be
installed as assembled from the factory.
A. Remove the middle angles and outside angles from the guide wall
angles. (Perform this for "E" non-welded guides only.)
B. Mount guide wall angles to achieve the "S" dimension (on the
Installation Data Sheet) plus 1/2" as shown in the illustration on the
previous page Fig. 3–C. (The extra 1/2" allows for the thickness of
the outside angle.)
• The "G" ("S" + 1/2") dimension must be held within 1/8" over the
entire height of the wall angle.
• The guides must be on a level plane and plumb.
– Place shims under the wall angle on the tall side of the
opening if necessary to put them on level, Fig. 3–B.
– Check plumb with a level or plumb bob.
2. MOUNTING METHODS
The following instructions use the Z-Guide positioning for the wall
angles, use the Z-Guide or E-Guide positioning best suited for your site.
Masonry Jambs
• Hold Z-Guide wall angle against the wall and drill mounting
holes through the slots using drill size shown in Table 4–A.
Install jamb fasteners (Table 4–A) on one wall angle. Install
second wall angle at "G" distance, refer to Fig. 3–C on the
previous page. Check for level and plumb. Use spacers between
Guide and wall as needed for plumb.
Steel Jambs
Steel jambs (welded or screwed) use "E" guides, all others use "Z".
• SCREW ATTACHMENT OPTION
– Hold E-Guide wall angle against the jamb and drill holes
through the slots using drill size shown in Table 4–A. Install
all jamb fasteners (Table 4–A) on one wall angle, then install
second wall angle at "G" ("S" + 1/2") (Fig. 3–C) distance. Check
for level and plumb.
• WELD ATTACHMENT OPTION
– Hold E-Guide wall angle against the jamb and tack weld in
place. Install second wall angle at "G" ("S" + 1/2") (Fig. 3–C)
distance. Check for level and plumb. Apply welds as shown in
Fig. 4–B, using welding electrodes E6010, E6011 or E7014.

NOTE: When the wall angle extends above the steel of the jamb or header, use washers,
spacers or shims to fill the gap between the masonry portion of the wall and the wall
angle. Use through bolts to fasten the wall angle in the area above steel, Fig. 4–C.
