How it Works |
|
Automatic Door Bottoms utilize a concealed flat spring mechanism and plunger. When the door is closed, a brass plunger is compressed to automatically lower the seal, starting from the hinge side first. This motion ensures a smooth usage even on an uneven surface and prevents drag. The seal is automatically raised upon opening. These automatic door bottoms have been successfully tested through 5 million cycles! See also About Automatic Door Bottoms. |

Automatic Door Bottoms are available with three mounting options: Surface Mounted, Semi-Mortised and Fully Mortised. A surface mounted application can be applied without removing the door from its hinges. For a semi-mortised, if the rabbet in the door is cut-out already, the door does not need to be removed. For a fully mortised application the door should be removed before starting. |
|
STEP 1: SIZING YOUR DOOR BOTTOM Once your door is ready for installation you need to determine the size required for your door bottom:
For visual presentation see How to Measure for an Automatic Door Bottom. |
|
Once you have determined the size needed, if necessary, trim your door bottom. Use a chop saw or table saw to create a perfectly straight cut. Note, Only trim opposite the actuating plunger, brass nut. (Trimming from the brass nut side will ruin your ADB).

STEP 2: PREP FOR ATTACHING AUTOMATIC DOOR BOTTOM
Place the automatic door bottom against the door Once you have the automatic door bottom leveled and positioned correctly, with a pencil or marker mark where the attachment screws need to be drilled. |
|
STEP 3: ATTACHING THE AUTOMATIC DOOR BOTTOM
To make installation easier you can drill a pilot hole which will ensure you attach the door bottom to the correctly marked spot. With the screws provided, screw in the automatic door bottom. In some models, a plate is provided for the hinge side of the frame. This will protect the door frame from getting worn down by the actuating plunger. If provided, attach to corresponding point on the frame. |

STEP 4: TESTING YOUR AUTOMATIC DOOR BOTTOM
