Installation
Foundation Plates are cut to length on the job site to fit the areaway conditions. Anchor the plates to sound sidewalls before installing the door to cap the areaway. Foundation plates can be overlapped to accommodate areaways greater than 84" in length.
Finish Options
Foundation plates are supplied with a primer finish that requires a finish coat upon installation. An optional factory-applied powder coat paint finish is available. This highly durable finish elminates the time and expensense required to finish coat the foundation plates after installation. The optional powder-coat paint finish is available in White, Light Gray, Sandstone, Brick, Green, and Black to match standard BILCO powder coat basement door colors.
