Before you begin installing your new retractable screen door, it is important to
identify your sill and door type. If you have a short sill or an outswing door, you
may need to make some modifications before proceeding to the installation steps.
SILL TYPE
Sill is flush with the exterior trim.
Long/Extended Sill
Sill extends past the exterior trim.
Additional steps may be required
Sill stops short of the exterior trim.
Flush Sill
Filler Board
• A filler board is not needed
when short sills have ground
directly underneath sill.
• A filler board is needed when
short sill sits on top of a step.
• Cut the filler board and place
under the trim so the top of the
filler board is even with the sill.
