Install the door bracket
Figure 1 shows one piece of angle iron as the horizontal brace. For the vertical brace, 2 pieces of angle iron are used to
create a U-shaped support. The best solution is to check with your garage door manufacturer for an opener installation door
reinforcement kit.
NOTE:
Many door reinforcement kits provide for direct attachment of the clevis pin and door arm. In this case you will not
need the door bracket; proceed to the next step.
