DOOR INSTALLATION 

INSTRUCTIONS

Before installing your door, be certain that you have read and followed all of the instruc-

tions covered in the pre-installation section of this manual. Failure to do so may result in an 

improperly installed door.

NOTE:

 Reference TDS 160 for general garage door terminology at 

www.dasma.com

.

IMPORTANT: 

IF THE DOOR WILL BE EXPOSED TO A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF ROAD SALT, 

PAINT THE BARE GALVANIZED BOTTOM WEATHER STEEL RETAINER TO INHIBIT RUSTING.

Attaching Flag Angles and Jamb Brackets To 

Vertical Tracks

NOTE:

 If you have Riveted Track or Angle Mount Track, skip this step.

FOR DOORS WITH QUICK INSTALL TRACK:

 Place the lower Quick Install tab of the left 

hand flag angle in the Quick Install feature of the left hand vertical track. Give the flag angle 

1/4 turn to lock in place. Measure the length of the vertical tracks. Using the jamb bracket 

schedule, determine the placement of the jamb brackets for your door height and track 

length. To install the jamb brackets, align the Quick Install tab on the Quick Install jamb 

bracket with the Quick Install feature in the vertical track and turn the bracket perpendicular 

to the track so the mounting flange is toward the back (flat) leg of the track. Repeat the same 

process for right hand side.

FOR DOORS WITH FULLY ADJUSTABLE TRACK:

 Hand tighten the left hand flag angle to 

the left hand vertical track using (2) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolts and (2) 1/4” - 20 flange 

hex nuts.

NOTE:

 The bottom jamb bracket is always the shortest bracket, while the center jamb 

bracket is the next tallest. If three jamb brackets per side are included with your door, you will 

have received a top jamb bracket, which is the tallest.
To attach the bottom jamb bracket, locate lower hole of the hole/ slot pattern of the 1st hole 

set on the vertical track. Align the slot in the jamb bracket with the lower hole of the hole/ slot 

pattern. Hand tighten jamb bracket using (1) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4” – 20 

flange hex nut.
Place the center jamb bracket over the lower hole of the hole/ slot pattern that is centered 

between the bottom jamb bracket and flag angle of the 2nd hole set. Hand tighten jamb 

bracket using (1) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4” - 20 flange hex nut.
If a top jamb bracket was included, hand tighten it to vertical track using the lower hole of the 

hole/ slot pattern in the 3rd hole set and (1) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4” - 20 

flange hex nut.

Attaching Horizontal Track Angles

NOTE:

 For larger doors, a full length horizontal track angle may not already be spot welded to 

the horizontal track. If the horizontal track angle is not welded, the horizontal track angle will 

be installed, as shown.
Position the left hand horizontal track angle, as shown. Place the Quick Install tabs of the 

horizontal track angle in the key slot of the left hand horizontal track. Using a hammer, tap 

the horizontal track angle towards the curved end of the track until the alignment hole in the 

track and angle are aligned. Repeat for other side. Set tracks aside.
