INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
It is important to verify the following basic information
before starting with the installation.
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO CONTENTS, STORE DRY
BETWEEN 40° AND 80° F.
1.
Make sure that you are working at the correct location and
that you have any special work permits.
2.
Inspect the installation site to make sure that there are no
overhead obstructions (sprinkler pipes, HVAC systems,
electrical supply lines, etc.) that might interfere with the
lifting of the header assembly during installation.
3.
Detour material handling equipment (fork lift trucks, etc.)
during the installation of the door.
4.
Make sure that the electrician is ready to bring the
correct electrical power supply to the door control box.
5.
Make sure that the electrical power can be shut off
without interfering with other plant operations.
6.
Move the entire crate of the door components as close to
the door opening as possible.
7.
When unpacking the door components remove the lighter
items first (electrical components), then the support
posts, and the header assembly last.
8.
Measure the overall width of the door opening near the
floor and the top (Dimensions A and B),
Figure 1.
9.
Measure the height of the door opening at the left and
right-hand sides (Dimensions C and D),
Figure 1.
10.
These dimensions should be within ±1" of the dimensions
listed on the Serial Number label. If the measurements
do not agree, STOP! Contact your
RITE-HITE
DOORS,
INC. representative.
11.
Using a 6’ carpenter’s level, verify that the door jambs
are plumb and perpendicular, the header and floor are
level, within ±1". If the floor is not level to within 1",
shimming of the support post will be required,
Figure 1.
12.
When removing the panels from the crates. Be sure not
to lean panels such that they crease.
13.
Remove header from the crate by removing the front and
motor side of the crate. Slide the motor off the edge of the
crate and stand up. There will be a block under the C-
Channel to keep the motor off the floor, this will allow a
fork lift to pick up the header using the header lifting tubes.
14.
Remove plastic rivets and keep in a warm place.
15.
D.O.W. / H. = Door Opening Width / Height
16.
O.D.W. / H. = Ordered Door Width / Height
17.
Be sure to install optional equipment last after verifying
door operation.
NOTE: Check for electrical prints included in the parts or
control box, as they supersede any prints included
in this owners manual on
Pages 16-18.
