Getting to Know the Viewpoint Screen
Before beginning, become familiar with the
Viewpoint Screen and the door on which it
will be installed.
The Viewpoint Screen accommodates both
in-swing and out-swing doors. In-swing
doors open to the inside of the home and
require the Viewpoint Screen to be
installed on the outside of the home.
Out-swing doors open to the outside of the
home and require the Viewpoint Screen
to be installed on the inside of the home.
Does the Viewpoint Screen t the
Door Opening?
Make sure that the Viewpoint Screen
will t the door. This application
will accommodate an opening of
up to 36” (914 mm) wide, and between
76 9/16” (1,947 mm) and 80 9/16”
(2,047 mm) high. If the door opening is
larger than that, the Viewpoint Screen can
still be installed by attaching a ller strip
under the door frame to reduce the height of
the door opening. Refer to page 6 for details.
NOTE: The Viewpoint Screen can only be
shortened by 4” (100 mm) to a minimum
height of 76 9/16” (1,947 mm). If the door
opening is smaller than this, the Viewpoint
Screen will not accomodate the door.

Is the Door Opening Square?
For the Viewpoint Screen to operate
effectively, the door opening must be
perfectly square. Using a Carpenter
Square, check to ensure that the door
frame is square. If not, use shims to
bring the door frame to square before
beginning installation.
Is there enough Mounting Surface?
The Viewpoint Screen is a recess
mount screen that installs on the
inside surface of the door frame.
A minimum Mounting Surface of
1 3/4” (45 mm) is required. This
Mounting Surface must be at and
ush, and at a right angle (90˚)
to the door.

Measuring the Door Opening
H
W
The Viewpoint Screen requires a minimum
Mounting Surface of 1 3/4" (45 mm). This
mounting surface must be at and ush, and at
a right angle (90º) to the door.
For the Width - Measure the width of the
opening between the right and left surfaces of
the door frame, record this dimension in the box
below labeled “W”.
For the Height – Measure the height of the
opening between the underside of the top of
the door frame (or ller strip), and the top of
the door sill at a point 1 3/4" (45 mm) from the
front surface of the frame. Record this
dimension in the box below labeled “H”.
NOTE: If the height of the door opening is
greater than the maximum height requirement,
it is still possible to install the Viewpoint
Screen. Simply attach a ller strip under the
top of door frame to reduce the height of the
opening to at least 80 9/16" (2,047 mm). Be
sure to attach the ller strip before taking the
height measurement.
