INTERIOR SEAL  
Caution: Ensure use of low expansion polyurethane window and door installation  
foams and strictly follow the foam manufacturer’s recommendations for application.  
Use of high expansive foams or improper application of the foam may cause the door  
to bow and hinder operation.  
A. Apply insulating foam sealant. From the interior, insert  
the nozzle of the applicator approximately 1" deep into  
*OUFSJPS  
the space between the door and the rough opening and  
apply a 1" deep bead of foam. This will allow room for  
expansion of the foam and will minimize squeeze out.  
Apply sealant across interior surface of shims to create  
a continuous seal. For windows with jamb extensions  
installed, ensure the foam is placed between the  
6A  
window frame and the rough opening, not between the  
jamb extension and the rough opening. Follow foam  
manufacturer's instructions.  
Note: It may be necessary to squeeze the end of the  
tube with pliers to be able to insert into the space  
between the window frame and the rough opening.  
DO NOT completely fill the space from the back of the  
fin to the interior face of the opening.  
B. Check the door operation by opening and closing the door.  
Note: If the door does not operate correctly, check to make sure it is still plumb, level,  
square and that the sides are not bowed. If adjustments are required, remove the  
foam with a serrated knife. Adjust the shims, and reapply the insulating foam sealant.

SEALING THE DOOR TO THE EXTERIOR WALL CLADDING  
When applying siding, brick veneer or other exterior finish material, leave adequate  
space between the door frame and the material for sealant. Refer to the illustration  
corresponding to your finish material.  
Note: The sealant details shown are standard recommendations from the sealant  
industry. Contact your sealant supplier for recommendations and instructions for these  
and any other applications.
