Locate one decal on each side of door, near latch area. Decal must
be located at 58" (+/- 5") from the floor to the center line of the sign.
The decal location must be visible without interference from door trim
or auxiliary door hardware.
Clean the 6" x 6" area where decal is to be placed. Apply decal by
removing the backing and "rolling" it onto door. This will help prevent
air bubbles from being trapped under decal.
