Key Steps for Window and Door Installation:

Preparation & Measurement: Verify the opening size, ensure it is clean of old debris, and ensure the sill is level.

Waterproofing (Flashing): Apply flashing tape on the sill and jambs to prevent water from contacting the wood and causing rot.

Setting the Unit: Place the window/door in the opening, using shims (composite or wood) to adjust for a level, plumb, and square fit.

Securing: Fix the unit to the structure using screws or nails, ensuring it does not hold the weight of the wall above (using a lintel for gaps).

Insulating and Sealing: Fill the gap between the frame and the wall with low-expansion foam or sealant for airtightness.

Finishing: Reinstall trim, apply sealant, and finish any wood components.

Key Considerations

Material Differences: Aluminum, wood, and PVC require different handling, with metal often needing specific cutting tools.

Structure: Proper installation involves sealing to protect the building envelope.

Documentation: Installation should adhere to local building codes, including specific wind regulations.

Door Setup: For doors, it is crucial to ensure the door leaf operates freely and the threshold is fully supported.
