    Upper hinge access panel: screws and sealant

    On the upper hinge access panel, is the washer separate from the screw head, or part of the head; would it be A or B in the photo? What type of sealant, or gasket, if any, was used to seal the cover to the door jamb? Lastely, what would be the size of the screw head...I'm thinking 5/16 ?

        Wayne...Thank you, I figured thats how it went, just wanted to make sure.

        Quality photo ?? That's as good as it's going to get Ron, sorry. It's obvious that screw "A" has a washer head nut, and that screw "B" the washer is seperate from the nut head.

            Thank you Ron, that confirms Wayne's answer also...not that I ever thought he was wrong.
