On the left door with tension holes up, insert tension rod and turn towards the left to add tension.
On the right door with tension holes down, insert tension rod and turn towards the right to add tension.
We recommend starting with 2 holes of tension on the top hinges.
1 hole of tension is recommended for the bottom hinges.
Adjust tension on the top hinge if the door sags or return action is too slow. Do not exceed 5 holes of tension on the top hinge.
If you are installing double doors you will need to follow steps 15 for the additional door.
