C INTERIOR CASING ATTACHMENT<br />
Interior casing may be attached to the <strong>Slim</strong>-<strong>Line</strong> frame in either of the following ways.<br />
An air nailer can be used to fasten the interior casing to the <strong>Slim</strong>-<strong>Line</strong> frame using 0.050” x<br />
1-½" wire brad nails through the casing <strong>and</strong> fiberglass frame. For maximum holding power,<br />
ensure that nails are installed through anchor blocks located within frame profiles. Locations<br />
are shown below for st<strong>and</strong>ard two-panel systems.<br />
For manual application, we suggest using 4d-1-½" finish nails. They can be used to secure interior<br />
casing to the frame. Pre-drilled pilot holes (1/16" dia.) are recommended to avoid splitting casing or<br />
frame. Ensure that nails are installed through anchor blocks for maximum holding power.<br />

D TRIPLE SYSTEM INFORMATION<br />
The intention of this section is to clarify the differences between a triple mulled <strong>and</strong><br />
triple continuous <strong>Slim</strong>-<strong>Line</strong> <strong>Patio</strong> <strong>Door</strong> System.<br />
H<strong>and</strong>ing Configurations for a Mulled Triple:<br />
FLF (Fixed, Left H<strong>and</strong> Active, Fixed)<br />
FRF (Fixed, Right H<strong>and</strong> Active, Fixed)<br />
LFF* (Left H<strong>and</strong> Active, Fixed, Fixed)<br />
FFR* (Fixed, Fixed, Right H<strong>and</strong> Active)<br />
H<strong>and</strong>ing Configurations for a Continuous Triple:<br />
LFF (Left H<strong>and</strong> Active, Fixed, Fixed)<br />
FFR (Fixed, Fixed, Right H<strong>and</strong> Active)<br />
* When ordering a LFF or FFR patio door the continuous configuration will be used as the<br />
automatic default. If a LFF or FFR is needed in a mulled configuration it can be ordered as<br />
a double <strong>and</strong> a multiple extension system <strong>and</strong> then joined in the field.<br />
Please note that the overall width of a mulled system is different then that of a continuous system.<br />
Another significant difference between a mulled triple <strong>and</strong> a continuous triple is the packaging.<br />
A triple continuous system will be shipped in two uni-boxes <strong>and</strong> a long frame box.<br />
In comparison, a mulled system will ship in just two boxes.<br />
