24. Apply Sealant to the Door
IMPORTANT!
Apply silicone sealant to the outside bottom edge of the center jambs, side panels, and wall
jambs only. On the inside, apply a bead of silicone sealant vertically along the seam between the wall
jambs and finished wall surface. Do not apply sealant to the inside of the side panels.
NOTE:
Door seals are an integral part of this door. However, sealing with a quality clear silicone sealant is
necessary to ensure a properly functioning, watertight unit.
Mask both edges of the joint to be sealed. Maintain a joint width of 1/8
″
(3 mm) to 3/16
″
(5 mm).
Apply a uniform bead of sealant.
Smooth the bead with your finger.
Remove the tape from the sealed joints immediately after smoothing the bead.
Repeat for all areas to be sealed.
