Installation Instructions
- Prepare the Rough Opening: Measure and cut a rough opening that is ¼" (6mm) larger than the door size. Ensure the opening is properly framed and level to provide a secure fit for the BAC-ALD-DF.
- Position the Door: Place the BAC-ALD-DF into the rough opening, ensuring the drywall bead flange sits flush against the surrounding surface. Align the door properly so that the continuous piano hinge is positioned on the height side as required.
- Secure the Door in Place: Fasten the door frame to the wall or ceiling using appropriate screws or anchors (based on wall material). Check if the flange is fully embedded into the drywall to create a smooth, seamless finish. Tighten the fasteners securely to prevent movement.
- Final Adjustments and Finishing: Check the key-operated cylinder cam latch for smooth operation and make sure the door opens and locks securely. Apply joint compound over the drywall bead flange for a clean finish, then sand and paint as needed to match the surrounding surface.
