A Top fixing between 50mm to 100mm
down from the top of the guide rail.
B Bottom fixing 50mm to 100mm up
from the floor.
C Marking at least one other fixing,
spread these evenly between the
two already marked points on the
guide runners so that you have
a secure fixing.
D Drill a 7mm hole all the way through
each of the marks on the guide
runners and then drill a 10mm hole
to countersink through the first
layer only so you can get the screw
head through.
1 Both guide runners will be marked
with the letter ‘F’ to indicate the front.
This has the flat face when looking
in the rear box section of the guide
runner
(fig.2.1) . It will fit against the
wall for a behind fixing or face out
of the garage for a between fixing.
2 Measure from floor to lintel and refer to
diagram 2, checking the lintel is level.
Cut the guide runners to size as needed
using a hack saw, for best results cut the
end which will be the bottom
(fig.2.2) .
3 Offer both cut guide runners up against
the walls they will be fixed to and mark
the fixing points, either on the flat face
for a behind fixing
(fig.2.3) or for a between
fixing in the opening (fig.2.4) . For best
results these should be as follows;
