I did not install it to that kind of door. We have that kind of door in or office and I would be able to attach it without a Z Bracket.

You much be sure that you are replacing the ARMS for the "liftgate and /or window-lift". What I mean is, the window-lift is smaller and the Liftgate itself is larger. I purchased both and had to learn the hard way. As soon as you purchase them, just to make sure that you pair them up. Youtube can easliy walk you thriugh it also, it the manufactures link.

the lock(s) have size details on them. You would have to measure the depth of your door to determine if the locking mechanism would be 'too long' as well as the distance between the lock penetration and the lip of the door frame, another area where the paddle of the locking mechanism could be too long. these are fairly inexpensive so buying two different setups wouldn't be cost prohibitive. Hope this helps.

No, it is a door stop. (Prevents dings in the wall behind the door) Best to use a wedge under a heavy glass door like yours.

I think your window would need a bit of a lip on the inside for the hooks to hook on to. I had casement windows put in, but they left the old frame in, so I had a big lip on the bottom for it. You might try to call Kidde from their website and ask them.

I have an older house and the handles kept coming off. When I got these I just twisted the glass handle on the shank put it through the existing hole and then twisted the other handle on and it worked just great. No need to replace any of the other hardware. If the old one comes off easily then the new one should work just fine.

If you can install it UNDER the pane-dividers, it will be more secure. Remember that the glass will still break, so I'd be afraid of the smaller panes breaking out of the frame, unless the whole of the glass in the door were covered.

Mine works fine, the doors are well held. You can try moving the glass retaining brackets a bit.

You need to add one. I got the skinz one that was recommended customers buy together and am in love with it. It feels like a sturdy layer of glass with o plastic draggy feeling

Correct, you will need to chisel small portion of the door out, it shows a diagram in the instructions

The aluminium version should fit. Make sure height is correct for your sliding glass door.

Careful in separating glass from frame. Get clear understanding in what you need. Eventhough tutorial is fairly clear you order more than needs.

You'd likely have to search for this that glass part. Try looking up the listing and see if there are any manufacturer codes on it. You probably can find a replacement in Amazon or other online marketplaces. Worst case, order the kit again, it's value priced, and keep the other parts as spares. Just a thought.

We installed one on our new camper this weekend. A Starcraft Autumn Ridge 245DS with a 30" door. My husband put a small strip of acrylic behind the thin edge of aluminum so the screw would have some additional support and not rip out of the aluminum. It feels pretty sturdy with the extra bracing. Since the screen is inside the door the screen door frame is smaller than the 30" door.

It is not necessary. Mine was in for a few months with just the screws to keep the door the correct height. So it does hold itself up on the track. The biggest issue i had was the new lock on the door makes it hard to lock the door normally, but my door is recessed so that might be why its a problem.
