Building Instructions
First compare the list of materials with
your package contents! Please understand that
complaints can be processed in the non-built

- Required only for ground
*Not included
For permanent covering, we recommend self-adhesive bitumen roofi ng sheet from our range
Roofing felt installation
Note! This description is only an example!
The bitumen roofing is used for initial cover and should be supplemented by a
separate product according to customers choice after two months. The number of
bitumen strips
to be used depends on your actual house size. When joining rolls of roofing
felt end to end, the overlap must be approximately 10cm. The roof is not safe
to walk on. The roof is
designed for a total load (snow, wind) and not for a point load. We recommend
you to always support the roof from below during installation. The sealing of
the roof surfaces to
adjacent components with bitumen sealant has to be effected by the customer!
If it is a saddle-roofed house, do not use roofing tiles for roofing. In this
case, a 20 cm wide strip of
bitumen with overhang should be installed on both sides of the eaves. For
houses with a tonne roof, please install a bitumen roofing under the shingles.
In the case of a flat roof
the laying of roof shingles is not possible!
Handling • Maintenance • Care of the door
The guarantee is conditional on proper upkeep!
For lasting protection of the value and suitability for use, professional care
and maintenance is also recommended during the warranty period; this is not
included in the warranty obligations. Defects must be repaired immediately
upon detection.
Wood protection treatment of the door
All parts of the door must receive wood protection treatment. Those sections
of the wood, which will not be accessible after installation, should receive
complete treatment before installation.
Treat the product with a blue stain blocking coat; afterwards apply a double
protective coating of an open-pored wood-protection glaze. Application of a
protective coating should be repeated at least every two years.
Please beware that the inserted plates of other material may come to differ in
colour to the doors if you use unsuitable coating material. With coloured and
boiler pressure impregnated houses, only the exposed natural wood (saw cuts)
and parts should need extra treatment.
You can obtain an even colour covering in inside areas with one coat of paint.
For that you should use an open-pored, acrylic based water dispersed lacquer.
In order to guarantee a long service life of your product you should repair
damaged areas immediately. Do this by whetting the damaged area and apply
a new coat of paint. Enquire about suitable glazes at your local paint
retailer.
Furthermore, you can seal the joining of the wood-window pane with a suitable
sealant to guarantee a long service life of the door and prevent leakage from
heavy rain. If these precautions of care are not properly carried out, it
can result in deformation, blue stain, fungus infestation in the doors and
frames and loss of warranty.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning and care is a prerequisite for preserving the service life
and
functionality of high-value products. Cleaning is to take place outside,
inside
and also in the rabbet-area. The cleaning agent used must be suitable for the
relevant material; please do a test before you start cleaning.
Deformation of the door
Wood reacts to environmental infl uences. Weather exposure will lead to
swelling and contraction of the wood. This causes variances of dimensions
and slight deformation. Dependant on the weather exposure, the door may
need realignment by turning the hinges in- or outwards. Some door warpage is
acceptable as long as the door can be made to function through the alignment
options specifi ed here. The warranty does not cover damage caused by use of
excessive force.
Adjustment of the door
The door must be accurately adjusted to ensure trouble-free operation. The
door frames must be installed right-angled and perpendicular. Furthermore,
they must be installed so the width of the frame is the same at the top and
bottom. If the door doesn’t close or if one panel is askew, this can be
rectified by
limited in- or outwards turning of the hinges. You can turn the hinges
outwards
up to 5 rotations. If you have a double-door, the door to be secured must
always
be correctly aligned at the top and bottom with the appropriate hinges.
