For installation on a double hinged door (French Doors), you  
will need: two Viewpoint Screens and one Double Door Kit.  
Please refer to the Installation Manual within the “Double  
Door Kit” prior to starting.  
The Viewpoint Screen is not intended for installation on a  
Sliding Patio Door.  
 
Getting to Know the Viewpoint Screen  
Before beginning, become familiar with the  
Viewpoint Screen and the door on which it  
will be installed.  
Rollers  
The Viewpoint Screen accommodates both  
in-swing and out-swing doors. In-swing  
doors open to the inside of the home and  
require the Viewpoint Screen to be  
installed on the outside of the home.  
Out-swing doors open to the outside of the  
home and require the Viewpoint Screen  
to be installed on the inside of the home.

Does the Viewpoint Screen fit the  
Door Opening?  
Tension Wire  
Make sure that the Viewpoint Screen  
Catch Frame  
Bottom Rail  
will fit the door. This application  
Sliding Bar Bottom Cap  
will accommodate an opening of  
up to 36” (914 mm) wide, and between  
76 9/16” (1,947 mm) and 80 9/16”  
(2,047 mm) high. If the door opening is  
larger than that, the Viewpoint Screen can  
still be installed by attaching a filler strip  
under the door frame to reduce the height of  
the door opening. Refer to page 6 for details.  
Is there enough Mounting Surface?  
The Viewpoint Screen is a recess  
mount screen that installs on the  
inside surface of the door frame.  
A minimum Mounting Surface of  
1 3/4” (45 mm) is required. This  
Mounting Surface must be flat and  
flush, and at a right angle (90˚)  
to the door.  
NOTE: The Viewpoint Screen can only be  
shortened by 4” (100 mm) to a minimum  
height of 76 9/16” (1,947 mm). If the door  
opening is smaller than this, the Viewpoint  
Screen will not accomodate the door.  
Is the Door Opening Square?  
For the Viewpoint Screen to operate  
effectively, the door opening must be  
perfectly square. Using a Carpenter  
Square, check to ensure that the door  
frame is square. If not, use shims to  
bring the door frame to square before  
beginning installation.

Measuring the Door Opening  
The Viewpoint Screen requires a minimum  
Mounting Surface of 1 3/4" (45 mm). This  
mounting surface must be flat and flush, and at  
a right angle (90º) to the door.  
For the Width - Measure the width of the  
opening between the right and left surfaces of  
the door frame, record this dimension in the box  
below labeled “W”.  
W
For the Height – Measure the height of the  
opening between the underside of the top of  
the door frame (or filler strip), and the top of  
the door sill at a point 1 3/4" (45 mm) from the  
front surface of the frame. Record this  
H
dimension in the box below labeled “H”.

NOTE: If the height of the door opening is  
greater than the maximum height requirement
it is still possible to install the Viewpoint  
Screen. Simply attach a filler strip under the  
top of door frame to reduce the height of the  
opening to at least 80 9/16" (2,047 mm). Be  
sure to attach the filler strip before taking the  
height measurement.

Service and Maintenance Hints  
The Viewpoint Screen is designed and engineered  
to be maintenance free. The following are some  
helpful hints to ensure the smooth operation of the  
Viewpoint Screen for years to come.  
All moving components used in the Viewpoint  
Screen are manufactured from a mixture of nylon  
and other materials. This combination of  
compounds is strong, impact resistant, and  
self-lubricating. Do not use oil, grease, oil based  
sprays or lubricants on any of the components on  
the Viewpoint Screen. These products attract  
dirt and debris, and may cause the Viewpoint  
Screen to react abnormally. However, the periodic  
application of a dry silicon lubricant to the moving  
parts is permissible.  
We recommend that while not in use, the Viewpoint  
Screen be kept in the retracted position. This  
will help extend the life of the screen mesh.  
In the retracted position, the mesh is protected  
and kept clean.  
The Screen Mesh and Bottom Rail should be kept  
free of dirt and debris. Lightly vacuum to remove  
any obstructions from the Screen Mesh and  
Bottom Rail.  
* Before installing the Viewpoint Screen, please  
take the time to read the installation  
instructions thoroughly.
