DOOR REQUIREMENTS

Survey the area to see if any of the conditions

below apply to your installation. Additional

materials may be required. You may find it helpful

to refer back to this page as you proceed with the

installation of your opener.
Depending on your requirements, there are several

installation steps which may call for materials or

hardware not included in the carton.

This opener is compatible with:

• Doors that use a torsion bar, springs and a door

no more than 4.2m (14’) high.

• 100mm - 150mm drums (4” to 6”),

NOT TO BE

USED

on tapered drums over 150mm (6”).

• High lift and standard lift sectional doors up to

4.2m (14’) high.

• Doors up to 5.5m (18’) wide.
• Doors up to 16m

2

(170 sq ft)

• 25mm (1”) torsion bar only.
• Review or inspect proposed installation area.

Opener can be installed on left or right side of

door. Select the side that meets the

requirements listed below.

• Must have minimum of 64mm (2 1/2”) between

the wall and the center of the torsion bar.

• Must have minimum of 76mm (3”) between the

ceiling and the center of torsion bar.

• Must have minimum of 203mm (8”) between the

side wall (or obstruction) and the end of torsion

bar.

• The torsion bar must extend at least 25mm to

100mm (1” to 4”) past the bearing plate.

• An electric outlet is required within 1.8m (6’) of

the installation area. If outlet does not exist,

contact a qualified electrician.

• Depending upon building’s construction,

extension brackets or wood blocks may be

needed to install safety reversing sensors.

• A model CM475 EverCharge

TM

Standby Power

Unit (SPU) is strongly recommended if there is

no access door to the building, as this opener

cannot be used in conjunction with an external

emergency release mechanism.

• Any gap between the floor and the bottom of the

door must not exceed 6mm (1/4”). Otherwise

the safety reversal system may not work

properly.

NOTE: Inspect the torsion bar while the door is raised

and lowered. It is important that there is no noticeable

movement up and down or left and right. If this type of

movement is not corrected, life of this opener will be

greatly reduced.
