A. To remove the bottom fin, lay the door down with the interior facing up. With a utility
knife, carefully score the entire length of the fin three times where it meets the sill. Bend the
fin back and forth a few times, then peel the fin off.
Note: Keep the body of the knife against the frame to prevent gouging the sill.
If installing in a block replacement or a concrete floor, go to Step 3A to remove the bottom
fin. If NOT removing the bottom fin go to Step B.
