Track Installation 

 

Each track section is symmetrical so there is no up or down side. If there is any damage to 
the bottom of the track, the track can be removed and rotated 180°. There are various 
track length end sections (starting at 1ft and incrementing in 1ft lengths), 3ft start section 
and 6ft start sections. The left starting section of the track is 6ft long, the right starting 
section is 3ft long. The remaining standard sections are 6ft long. The sections are 
overlapped 3ft to provide a rigid track system. The track has square bolt holes and is 
assembled using  
¼”- 20 x 5/8” carriage bolts.  

 

 

 

 

This makes assembling the track easier as only one 7/16” wrench or socket is required.  
The carriage bolts are inserted from the Right Hand Side of the track, with the nuts 
fastening on the Left Hand Side of the track. The typical method of assembling the track is 
to assemble 6 pieces of track together on a work table, to make a 21ft section. This makes 
hanging the track easier to work with. 

 

Start Section 6’ Sections off-set every 3’ to make 21’ section
