19916647 Installation Instruction
Installer and Builder Information
I M P O R TA N T
Marvin Modern Direct Glaze Corner window is not load bearing and should not be installed in any manner that places
the unit under load from the wall system. Care must be taken with the design of the structure surrounding these units.
• Always provide a copy of these instructions for the

current or future building owner.
• Plan sizing of rough opening and clearance from
exterior finishing systems to allow for normal
materials shrinkage or shifting (e.g. wood structure
with brick veneer; allow adequate clearance at the
sill). Failure to do so can void the Marvin warranty
coverage.
• It is the responsibility of the builder, installer and
subcontractors to protect the interior and exterior of
windows or doors from contact with harsh chemical
washes, construction material contamination and
moisture. Damage to glazing, hardware,
weatherstrip and cladding/wood can occur. Protect
with painters tape and/or protective sheathing as
required. Follow all guidelines regarding material
use, preparation, personal safety and disposal.
• Contact your Marvin supplier if you have any
questions regarding product and materials used in
manufacturing or questions on replacement parts.

Protective Film
Some products feature a clear protective film adhered to the glass surfaces to protect them from construction debris,
dust, dirt, stucco, etc. When construction is complete, simply peel the film off and dispose of it with other construction
debris.
I M P O R TA N T
Do not use a razor blade to remove the protective film. Do not use a pressure washer to clean debris from the film.
The film should be removed within nine months (typical) of application.
The use of high absorption coatings and tints, Neat+® coated glass, LoE-189® and other exposed Low-E coatings
could affect adhesion and reduce the amount of time allowed to remove the film. Please refer to the manufacturer’s
website and bulletin for more information on the physical properties and usage of the protective film.
I M P O R TA N T
DO NOT place suction cups over seams in the protective film.
Figure 1 Do not put suction cups on seams or edges

Before You Begin
Rough and Masonry Opening Requirements
The following measurements were used to obtain
WDMA performance certification during testing.
1. Rough opening (RO) width may be up to 1 1/8" (29)

wider (3/4" maximum on each side) than the outside
measurement (OM) of the frame. The RO height may be
a maximum of 3/4" taller than the OM of the frame. See
Figure 2.
I M P O R TA N T
Rough openings are tested and certified at 3/4" on each
side, and at the head jamb. Marvin Order Management
System (OMS) will add 1 1/8" to the frame width but
only 3/4" to the frame height when calculating the rough
opening.
Figure 2 RO Width and Height clearance
1 RO Width (3/4" on each side)

2 RO Height (3/4" taller than OM of frame)
I M P O R TA N T
When using drywall return (or equivalent) at the sill
greater than 1/2" thickness, you will need to shim be-
neath the sill to avoid interference with interior covers.

Prepare the Opening

Install the Sill Pan Flashing
CAUT ION!
Be aware that the use of sill pans and other barriers will
decrease the rough opening height clearance. Adjust
opening dimensions accordingly.
I M P O R TA N T
Wall depth will determine width of panning material. The
panning must overlap the exterior at least 2".

Frame Prep
I M P O R TA N T
Be sure to use the proper safety equipment. Wear
gloves when working with the window parts and be
aware of any sharp edges and corners.
Tip
The following steps and illustrations demonstrate in-
stalling the window in the opening starting with the left
side. You may install the corner bracket on the right
hand window and work from right to left.
1. Starting with the left window, remove and discard the

screws fastening the top and bottom shipping clips to
the frame (3 screws per clip). Then remove the false
jamb by pulling the bottom out and rotating to the Figure 33
interior.
3. Clean the corner jamb with isopropyl alcohol.
Continue to step 4 on page 20.
Figure 32
1 Shipping clip
2 False jamb
2. Remove the shipping clips by sliding them off the

frame. Slide the shim blocks down over the installation
holes where the shipping clip was located.

4. Install the corner bracket on the left hand window.
Add a 1/8" (3) bead of sealant along the raised lip of the
corner bracket. See Figure 34. Measure up 5 5/8" (143)
from the sill. Place the bracket so that the lip fits into the
kerf on the window. Fasten with 1/2" self drilling screws
provided. Be careful not to over-torque the screws.
Figure 34 Interior side up shown
1 Place the bracket 5 5/8" from the sill

Shim the Sill
I M P O R TA N T
Proper shimming is extremely important. Under shim-
ming or over-shimming will result in bowed jambs and or
head jamb. When shimming near the miter location be
sure to shim each window independently and as close
to the miter as possible.
1. Place shims on the sill near the corners, near the

miter, at the center, and every 15" on center as needed.
See Figure 35.
Figure 36
Figure 35
1 Install shims at center points and/or at 15" on center
2. Level the shims as necessary to make sure both legs

are level. See Figure 36.

Installing the Windows in the Rough Opening
1. If you are mulling windows to the sides of a corner
window, install the corner window first. Tip
Each frame miter is cut at 46 degrees. A slight gap is
normal, however frames must be installed at 90 de-
grees to each other.
I M P O R TA N T
Proper shimming is extremely important. Under shim-
ming or over-shimming will result in bowed jambs and or
head jamb. When shimming near the miter location be
sure to shim each window independently and as close
to the miter as possible.
3. Level at the sill and plumb the unit. Adjust shims

under the sill to level if necessary. See Figure 39.
Figure 37
2. Place the left window with the center bracket into the
RO. Align the center jamb closely to the center-line
drawn on the RO. See Figure 38.

I M P O R TA N T
Follow the flashing tape manufacturer’s recommended
instructions for attaching to the building materials under
the WRB. For example, priming wet or frozen wood, ap-
plication temperature, etc.
1. Install an optional "high pressure skirt". Use

flashing material or a strip of weather resistive barrier
and attach it to the sill of the window with seam seal
tape or flashing tape. See Figure 66.

2 WRB paper or flashing material (with backing left on)
I M P O R TA N T
When installing the high pressure skirt, do not plug the
weep holes in the end cap.

3. Apply pieces of adhesive flashing at the outside
corners to cover the nailing fin and at the corner as
shown. Lap the flashing onto the frame by at least 1/4".
See Figure 75.
Figure 69
5. Cut the drip cap at the lines shown in Figure 70
Figure 68
4. Make a one piece corner drip cap out of rigid flashing

material. The flashing may be continuous from corner to
each end or spliced over the middle of a window. Start
by measuring and marking the location of the corner
and transferring the measurement of the horizontal
projection to both sides of the corner center line. See
Figure 69.
NOTE: The ends of the drip cap should extend about 1/

8" past edge of the window. An optional detail for down-
turned end dams is shown in step 9 on page 32. Size
drip cap accordingly in both cases.
NOTE: The drip cap may be spliced. Splice toward the

Figure 70
middle of the window and not at mulls.
6. Cut out a 45 degree piece out of the horizontal
surface as shown in See Figure 71. Cut the front edge
of the drip, then fold the opposite vertical surface
forward.

fasteners directly above the unit. See Figure 79.
Figure 79

Insulating and Sealing the Installation
1. Apply insulation in the rough opening, against the
backer rod installed earlier. See Figure 80.
2. Apply a continuous bead of sealant around the

interior perimeter. Seal all joints where drywall
returns to the window frame. See Figure 80.
I M P O R TA N T
Do not install drywall over the interior frame cover. This
will hinder the ability to remove the cover later. When
applying sealant between the cover and drywall, use a
paintable caulk.
