INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSfor Bifold Doors (JII103)Thank you for selecting JELD-WEN products. Attached areJELD-WEN’s recommended installation instructions for premiumcomposite, hollow and solid core molded Bifold Doors. Bifoldsare designed for fast and easy installation and adjustment usingcommon tools.Read these installation instructions thoroughly before beginning. Theyare designed to work in most existing applications. However, existingconditions may require changes to these instructions. If changes areneeded, they are made at the installer’s risk. For installations other thanindicated in these instructions, contact a building professional.IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND GLOSSARYNote to Installer: Provide a copy of these instructions to the buildingowner. By installing this product, you acknowledge the terms andconditions of the limited warranty as part of the terms of the sale.GLOSSARYFinished OpeningThe resulting opening after any trim work is completed. Measure thesedimensions for proper door fitting.Lead DoorThe panel or section without the pivoting hardware. On four-panelassemblies, these are the two that meet in the middle.Pivot DoorThe panel or section that contains the pivoting hardware and supportsthe weight of the door assembly.SAFETY AND HANDLING Read and fully understand ALL manufacturer’s instructions beforebeginning. Failure to follow proper installation instructionsmay result in the denial of warranty claims for operational orperformance problems. Use safe lifting techniques. Wear protective gear (e.g. safety glasses, gloves, ear protection, etc.). Operate hand/power tools safely and follow manufacturer’soperating instructions. Heed material manufacturer’s handling and application instructions. Store doors in a dry, well-ventilated building and on a flat andlevel surface. Do not subject interior doors to extremes of heat and/or humidity.Prolonged exposure may cause damage. Buildings where humidityand temperature are controlled provide the best storage facilities(recommended conditions 30%-50% Relative Humidity and 50 Fto 90 F). Do not install doors in buildings that have wet plaster or cementunless they have been properly finished. Do not store doors inbuildings with excessive moisture content - HVAC systems shouldbe operating and balanced. Avoid sudden changes such as forcedheat to dry out a building. Doors should not be delivered to the jobsite or installed until concrete floors, foundation, plaster or drywallare cured. Doors should always be handled with clean hands or while wearingclean gloves. Doors should be lifted and carried when being moved, not draggedacross one another. Finish all six sides (both sides and all four edges) of the doorslab, including cutouts for hardware. Failure to finish all six sidesmay result in the denial of warranty claims for operational orperformance problems. If disturbing existing paint, take proper precautions if lead paintis suspected (commonly used before 1979). Your regional EPA(www.epa.gov/lead) or Consumer Product Safety Commission officesprovide information regarding regulations and lead protection. WARNING: Drilling, sawing, sanding or machining wood productsgenerates wood dust, a substance known to the State of California tocause cancer. Use a respirator or other safeguards to avoid inhalingwood dust.IF INJURY OCCURS, IMMEDIATELY SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION!MATERIALS AND TOOLSFINISHING MATERIALSTOOLSNote!

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSfor Bifold Doors (JII103)1INSPECT FINISHED OPENING, REMOVE PACKAGING AND INSPECT DOORINSPECT FINISHED OPENING The width size specification (finished opening size) shown on thebifold packaging is 1/2" larger than the bifold set to allow for at leasta 1/4" gap between the side jamb and pivot door (door secured tothe floor and head jamb). Double units should have at least 1/4" gapbetween both side jambs and no gap between the doors that meet inthe middle. The height size specification (finished opening size) shown on thebifold packaging is 1-1/2" larger than the bifold set to allow forthe track to be installed above the door set and the lower bracketinstalled below the door set. Once the door set(s)are installed, thereis an additionalhardware adjustmentof up to 3/8" tocenter the sets in thefinished opening.Single Bifold SetWall 1/4"min.Finishedopening Measure height andwidth of finishedwall opening andverify it is no morethan 1/4" larger orsmaller than thestated opening sizeon the packaging.

Ultra-thermally efficient bifold doors The SUNFLEX SF75 bifold doors have been specifically engineered to offer ultra-thermal efficiency and industry leading weather proofing. The system can achieve incredibly low U-values from just 0.8W/m²K† making them suitable for Passivhaus standard homes,
bifold packaging is 1/2" larger than the bifold set to allow for at least a 1/4" gap between the side jamb and pivot door (door secured to the floor and head jamb). Double units should have at least 1/4" gap between both side jambs and no gap between the doors that meet in the middle.
