When installing your door you must use sections of the appropriate height in the right stack-

ing order. What section heights you need to use in what order depends on the height of your 

door.
Unless your door is five sections in height, you will not receive an Intermediate II section.
The 

BOTTOM SECTION

 can be identified by the factory attached bottom astragal, the factory 

attached bottom corner brackets, and by the bottom corner bracket warning labels on each 

end stile.
The 

INTERMEDIATE I SECTION

 may have a warning label attached to either right or left 

hand end stile of the section. This section is always the 3rd section from the bottom of the 

door.
