Reversing the Operating Panel
Note: For Model number 332, DP 50 Patio Door -
When panel is removed from the frame, remove the
weep hole covers from the top of the panel and place
on the bottom. Place the bottom weep hole covers
on the top.
If your application requires the operating panel
to open from the opposite side follow these directions
to reverse the operation of the door.
Remove the packaging from the door and remove the
screws that hold the wooden shipping blocks onto
the sill.
(2 Panel Doors Only) Unlatch the turn lever of the
door handle and open the operating panel to the
center of the door. Turn the roller adjustment screws
located on the bottom of each side of the operating
panel counter clockwise to lower the panel.
(2 Panel Doors Only) Remove the panel from the door
frame. Lift out the aluminum roller track located
in the bottom of the sill with a flat head screwdriver.
Cartwheel the door frame 180 degrees and reinstall
the sill track into the sill. Set the frame down
in a safe location.
(3 Panel Doors Only) Remove the packaging from the
operating panel. The rollers of the operating panel
must be relocated to the opposite end. Lay the operating
panel on its side and remove the Phillips flat head
screws that hold the roller assembly into the operating
panel. Lift out the roller assembly and place in
slot at opposite end of the operating panel. Position
the roller assembly so that the installation hole
aligns with the hole in the panel. Replace the Phillips
flat head screw. Repeat with other roller. Do not
adjust rollers.
Reinstall operating panel into the frame. Check
that the interlock on the panel faces towards the
exterior side of the frame.
Adjust the rollers of the operating panel to keep
the handle stile parallel with the keeper jamb.
Open the operating panel and operate the lock so
the latch will be exposed. Clamp a pair of vise
grip pliers to the latch. Remove the two screws
that hold the lock assembly in place. Pull the lock
assembly out by pulling down on the vise grip pliers
and then rotating so that the top of the lock comes
out of the hole first. Rotate the lock so that the
latch points up and replace the lock into the hole.
Replace the lock screws.
Measure the location of the keeper on the door jamb
and remove the shipping screws that hold the keeper
in place. Measure the opposite jamb and reinstall
the shipping screws.
