HARVIA 55-021601-Ovi Aluminium Frame Door
Wear eye protection and protective gloves during installation.
If the material in the walls is porous, check the right methods of installing and sealing from your dealer!
-
Place a piece of cardboard or similar padding under the door to prevent the door from hitting the floor during installation. A tempered glass door can break into small pieces as a result of a sharp hit. NOTE! The support in the bottom edge of the door frame should be kept in its place until installation is finished!
-
Measure the width and height of the opening and the door.
-
Install supports on the sides of the opening. Remember to leave room for wedging on both sides of the opening. Install the supports vertically in-line using a spirit level. A straight board can be used as an extension for a short spirit level. Cut and install supports made of e.g. pieces of wood under the door.
You can make the instal-lation easier by installing temporary stoppers to the supports so that the door can lean on them. This is especially recommended if you are working alone. To be able to install the cor-nice strips correctly, place the stoppers so that the flagging on the wall and the door frame are on the same level. -
Leave a gap of about 10 mm between the top of the frame and the opening. It is recommended to leave 100–200 mm gap under the door for ventilation in the sauna (about 10 mm in other rooms).
-
Lift the glass door into the opening and place wedges next to bores between the supports. Make sure the wedges are not placed under the bores. Fasten the hinge-side part of the frame to wall with screws (topmost screw first). Next, wedge and fasten the opposite side in the same way. To make sure the frame is installed in the right position, check that the gap between the glass and the frame is equally wide from bottom to top (above the door also).
-
After fastening the frame with screws, check that the frame is straight and the door opens and closes properly. Cut off the excess parts of the wedges if necessary (saw in a vertical position). Remove supports from under the door and from the bottom edge of the frame. Install the cornice strips and the handle.
