Step 1 – Cut roll of self-adhesive hook/loop material into 3 strips, -two lengths equal to the height of the

door jambs, and one long strip for the header (measurements vary to screen).

Step 2 – install and align the self-adhesive hook/loop strips on both door jambs, about 1 inch in front

(street side) of the door stops/weather strips. Then add the hook/loop strip to the header, so that it

allows a smooth surface edge with both door jamb strips.

Step 3 – starting at either upper corner, attach the Fresh Air Screen® to the hook/loop strip which is

mounted on the header. Then attach the Fresh Air Screen® to the hook/loop strips that are mounted on

either of the door jambs of the garage door opening.

Step 4 – Attach the enclosed cleats to the door jabs, between the garage door and the screen, about 5 feet

high using the wood screws provided.

Step 5 – Install the enclosed eye screws. (Refer to illustration below.) All 6 eye screws should go into the

header on the garage side of your screen approximately 1 inch from the screen as follows:

Eye Screw 1 and 2 – place 1 on each side, 6 inches from the center zipper

Eye Screw 3 and 4 – Place 1 on each side, 12 inches in from the outside zipper

Eye Screw 5 and 6 – place 1 on each side, 6 inches from the outside zipper

Step 6 – Attach the brackets to the header (street side) across from eye screws # 1, 2, 3 and 4. (See Step 5).

Step 7 – Inserting the enclosed cords according the following:

1.) Long Cord #1 – Insert the knotted end into the bracket across from Eye Screw #1. Run the cord

down and under the screen, then back up to Eye Screw #1. Run the cord through eye Screws

#1, #3 and #5 then down to the cleat.

2.) Long Cord #2 – Insert the knotted end into the bracket across from Eye Screw #2. Run the cord

down and under the screen, then back up to Eye Screw #1. Run the cord through eye Screws

#2, #4 and #6 then down to the cleat.

3.) Short Cord #1 – Insert the knotted end into the bracket across from Eye Screw #3. Run the

cord down and under the screen, then back up to Eye Screw #3. Run the cord through eye

Screws #3 and #5 then down to the cleat.

4.) Short Cord #2 – Insert the knotted end into the bracket across from Eye Screw #4. Run the

cord down and under the screen, then back up to Eye Screw #4. Run the cord through eye

Screws #4 and #6 then down to the cleat

With the Screen pulled all the way down, tie the cords together about 12 inches below the cleat and cut

off the excess cord. Do this for each side.

Step 8 (Optional/Highly recommended) – after fastening the screen to the header and door jambs, apply

roofing nails (not included) through the ends of the hook/loop strips and every 12-18 inches along the

length, to create a long term, permanent bond.

Step 9 – Insert a ¾ in. rod (3/4 inch plastic electrical conduit or galvanized pip recommended) into the

pouch sewn into the bottom of the screen to maintain desired position and shape of the screen when

rolled up.

Rolling up – For each side, pull the two cords simultaneously to the desired height.
