The neodymium magnets and s/steel components used in the PLS 24 PRO will not touch after installation - which means: Cherry hardwood is a light to reddish-brown color which deepens with age and exposure to sunlight. Cherry will require a good sealer and proper maintenance. Cherry wood is a delicate wood and close-grained with high resistance to warping. It is often used in cabinetry and furniture-making. This is the size of the actual Sidelight jamb. When inputting the net frame size you want to put in a number that is at least a half inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the unit. The door will be built with the sidelight attached so be sure to input the height of the door and the height of the sidelight the same. Example: 48″ X 98″ door with a 18″ X 98″ sidelight will get you a door and sidelight combo that measures 66″ X 98″ (the rough opening size should be somewhere around 66 1/2″ X 98 1/2″). This is the size of the actual Door jamb and Sidelight jamb combined. When inputting the net frame size you want to put in a number that is at least a half inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the unit. The door will be built with the sidelight as a separate unit so be sure to factor in the 2″ structural post into your net sizes. For example, if you have a 48″ x 96″ door and a 12″ left sidelight, your total unit width would be 48″ door + 2″ post + 12″ sidelight, totaling 52″ in width (the rough opening size should be somewhere around 52 1/2″ X 96 1/2″). If you have a 48″ x 96″ door, a 12″ left sidelight and a 22″ right sidelight, your total unit width would be 12″ sidelight + 2″ post + 4 8″ door + 2″ post + 22″ sidelight, totaling 86″ in width (the rough opening size should be somewhere around 86 1/2″ X 96 1/2″).While there are many types of latches to hold cabinet doors in place, most don’t pull me in. I find protruding mechanisms visually unappealing, and I don’t like the sound of latches hitting each other. So I turn to another method: hidden magnets. Concealed rare-earth magnets provide a pristine look and quiet operation. When done right, the magnets have a subtle grab that makes opening and closing a door a pleasure.

Doubling the distance reduces the magnetic force by 4X Ezifit s/steel housing cups automatically set the magnets perfectly parallel to each other, essential for precise power adjustmentUse (esp. with double doors) to further reduce impact noise and bouncing of door on frame when shutting We recommend that you return your item using a signed for service that provides you with proof of delivery to us.

In almost all cases, customers will wish to specify the Standard Free-swing pivot hardware, which allows the door to move as a standard hinge hardware would. We offer the Closer hardware upgrade for customers using the door in commercial applications or for customers who want the doors to always return to a fixed position automatically. The pivot placement is the distance the pivot pin will be placed away from the vertical edge of the rough opening. Generally speaking, we suggest placing the pivot over one quarter of the distance of the door width. We find that this presents a solid aesthetic for most door dimensions. See table below for suggested pivot placements. Swing configuration defines the direction of the door motion and from which side the pivot is placed Supplied with Magnetic Cover Plate in Brushed Stainless Steel and all necessary fixings.

If there is any type of wood covering on the interior of the house, you will need a type 2. The type 2 threshold has a 90 degree angle on the interior facing side for the wood covering to butt up against.

After the door is built and trimmed to fit, you’re ready to rout the mortise for the magnet. The mortise should be 1⁄8 in. deeper than the magnet’s diameter so you can glue in a plug to conceal the hole. On the edge of the door, lay out the mortise. Inset the mortise at least 1⁄8 in. from the inside face of the door, and mark the length to ensure wiggle room for the 3⁄4-in.-dia. magnet. With the workpiece secured and the router stable, out the mortise. Place a magnet inside and glue a plug in place. Magnet Testing UK Mainland (not including Scottish Highlands, Scottish Islands, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands or other UK offshore locations) When sizing the door you will need to consider two principle measurements, rough opening and frame size.
