Adjusting Top Fixtures
15
With horizontal tracks installed, you can now adjust the top fixtures. Vertically align the top
section of the door with the lower sections. Once aligned, position the top fixture slide(s),
out against the horizontal track. Maintaining the slide(s) position either tighten the (2) 1/4”
- 20 flange hex nuts / 5/16” - 18 hex nut to secure the top fixture slide(s) to the top fixture
base(s). Repeat for other side.
NOTE:
Refer to the Windload Specification Sheet to determine if additional 1/4” - 20 x 9/16”
track bolt and (1) 1/4” - 20 flange hex nut is required to be installed into the top fixture slide.
Lock each of the top fixture slide in position using (1) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1)
1/4” - 20 flange hex nut through any aligning hole. Repeat for other side.
NOTE: Refer to the Windload Specification Sheet to determine if pushnuts are required to be
installed onto the shaft of track roller stems.
IMPORTANT:
ACCURATELY POSITIONING THE PUSHNUT ONTO THE ROLLER STEM IS CRITI-
CAL. ONCE THE PUSHNUT IS PUSHED ONTO THE ROLLER STEM, THE TABS MAKING CON-
TACT WITH THE STEEL SURFACE WILL MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO REPOSITION THE PUSHNUT.
NOTE: When positioning the pushnut onto roller stem, ensure the tabs on the pushnut are
pointing away from roller stem.
Starting with the top fixture assembly, slide (1) pushnut over the roller stem and push the
pushnut towards the outside edge of the top fixture assembly leaving 1/4” spacing between
the outside edge of top fixture assembly and the pushnut. Repeat same process for the
graduate end hinges and the bottom corner brackets on the left hand side of door, then
repeat same process for the right hand side of door.
