storing & Handling
- Do not walk on any door units. Some
units contain glass.
- Avoid dragging doors across one another.
- Keep doors clean.
- Store doors flat on a level surface in a dry,
well ventilated interior space.
- Doors should be conditioned to average
prevailing relative humidity of the locality
before hanging. This generally takes 48 to
72 hours.
- Doors should be delivered to the building
site only after the concrete, plaster,
stucco, sheet rock work and paint are
completely dry.
- Doors should not be subject to extreme or
rapid changes in heat or humidity. Avoid
sudden changes such as forced heat to
dry out a building.
- If the doors are to be stored on the job site, all ends and edges must be sealed with quality oil-base sealer in order to prevent undue moisture absorption.
