2/ First snap on the two sides of the masking accessories, use towels or paper towels to wipe the surface of the location to be pasted, try not to have moisture and dirt. Peel off the backing adhesive tape, align the protruding edge at the bottom of the product with the bottom of the door, and press firmly.
3/ Parallel the top bumping accessories and the adjustment knob, with self-tapping screws to install the top bumping accessories to the door frame. Adjustment knob can be directly extracted with tools, then the adjustment knob back to the appropriate position to adjust the seal for lifting height, and finally to close the door. If the seal could automatically fall and the bottom of the door without gaps, installation finish. Door open range within 5cm, the seal will automatically rise.
