Note: The further in the Floor Socket and Floor Plate are placed from the opening edge of the door, the farther the door will open in a safe viewing postion.

Locate the Plastic Floor Socket, Floor Plate, and two #8 x 1" Screws.

Place edge of Floor Plate against threshold. The hole in the Floor Plate is off set more to one side of the plate. Position Floor Plate so that the 5/8" hole is closest to the threshold, and that it is 3" in from the edge of the door as shown in 1A.

Next, mark the area where you will later drill the 5/8" hole for the Plastic Floor Socket. A drill template is provided as a pdf file that you can print and use to mark your holes. You can download the template here. Fold the template where indicated and then place it on the door edge. Now, mark the screw holes with a pencil or pen.

After double checking your measurements, drill a 5/8" hole in the floor approximately 2 1/4" deep. Insert the Plastic Floor Socket and place Floor Plate over the socket, secure with screws as shown in 1B.

Note: You will want to drill 1/8" pilot holes for the screws before securing. Use the template here to drill your screw holes.

Now locate your Plastic Door Base Plate. It should be placed 2 1/4" from the floor and the edge aligns with the center of the screw in the Floor Plate as shown in 2A.

Check your alignment before making any screw holes by inserting the Angle Bar into the Floor Plate, long end first. The horizontal portion of the Bar should be directly in the center of the Door Base Plate. If it is not, make necessary adjustments. See 2B.


Now that you have double checked your alignment, you are ready to insert the Guard Liner into the Guard holder as shown in 2C.

Secure the Plastic Door Base Plate, the Plastic Guard Liner and the Guard Holder to the door with two #8 x 1" screws. See 2D.
