INSTALLATION—LOCATING CENTERLINE OF DOOR OPENING
LOCATING CENTERLINE OF DOOR OPENING
NOTE: Accurate measurements are critical for the
proper installation and operation of your
Rytec door. Verify all measurements.
1. Measure the width of the door opening.
2. Divide the measurement in half to locate the center-
line. Then mark the centerline along the floor.
(See Figure 7.)

LOCATING SIDE COLUMNS
1. Locate the layout drawing of the door. It should be
attached to the small parts carton packed inside the
shipping crate. This drawing identifies the produc-
tion width of your door.
2. Using the centerline as a reference point, lay out
and mark half of the door’s production width along
the floor. (See Figure 8.)
This door is equipped with a breakaway
bottom bar assembly. To ensure that it
works properly, the width of the door
opening must not be smaller (narrower)
than the production width of the door. If
the width of the opening is narrower than
the width of the door, do not proceed with
the installation. Contact your Rytec repre-
sentative or Rytec Customer Support
Department at 800-628-1909.

3. With a carpenter’s square placed against the wall,
mark both sides of the door along the floor. Extend
the line along each edge.
4. Check the floor for level across the door opening.
The floor must be level within 0.12 in. from side-to-
side. If one side of the opening is higher than the
other, a shim under the side panel will be required.
Figure 9 and Figure 10 show two methods that can
be used to ensure level side columns.
NOTE: Contact the Rytec Customer Support
Department if the floor is more than 1 in.
