Horizontal track angles

Tools: Hammer

 

 

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.

NOte:

 If you have riveted track, skip this step.

Measure the length of the vertical tracks. Using the jamb bracket schedule, determine the place-

ment 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 for other side.

NOte:

 If you have riveted track, skip this step.

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. Secure jamb bracket using (1) 1/4”-20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4”-20 flange hex 

nut. Repeat for other side.
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. Secure jamb bracket using 

(1) 1/4”-20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4”-20 flange hex nut. Repeat for other side.
If a top jamb bracket was included, secure 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. Repeat for other side.

Lift Handles

Tools: Tape Measure, Pencil, Power Drill, 1/16” Drill Bit

 

 

NOte:

 Refer to door section identification, located in the pre-installation section of this manual 

or refer to Parts Breakdown on page 2.
Starting with the lock section, measure the width of the center stile which will receive the lift 

handle(s). Divide that measurement in half and mark a vertical line onto the center of the stile.

NOte:

 If you are installing two lift handles on the center stile, you will need to measure from 

the edge of the center stile to the center line mark. Divide that measurement in half and draw a 

second and third vertical line parallel to the previously made center line mark.
Now, measure the height of the panel. Divide that measurement in half and mark a horizontal 

line, intersecting the vertical line(s) previously marked. Measure up 3 7/8” from the intersecting 

line(s) and mark another horizontal line. 
Use the point(s) where the top horizontal line intersects the vertical line(s) to locate the top hole 

of the lift handle(s). Using the lift handle as a template, mark this location onto the center stile. 

Keeping the lift handle aligned with the vertical line, mark the lower lift handle hole onto the 

center stile. Drill 1/16” pilot holes at the marked hole locations. Fasten both lift handles to the 

center stile using #10 x 5/8” pan head self tapping screws.
If the door came with two sets of lift handles repeat the same process for the other lift handles.

Pull Handles

Tools: Tape Measure, Pencil, Power Drill, 1/16” Drill Bit

 

 

Locate and mark the horizontal and vertical center on the bottom rail of the bottom section, on 

single car doors.
Center the pull handle using the vertical and horizontal lines as referenced on the bottom section 

rail. Using the pull handle as a template, mark the two hole locations in the pull handle onto the 

horizontal line of the bottom section rail. Drill 1/16” pilot holes at the marked hole locations. 

Fasten pull handle(s) using (2) #10 x 5/8” pan head self tapping screws.
If your door came with two pull handles, locate them directly below the lift handles and repeat 

the installation process.

Uncoil the counterbalance lift cables from the cable drum assemblies, making sure you place 

the left hand cable loop on the left hand milford pin of the bottom corner bracket and the right 

hand cable loop on the right hand milford pin of the bottom corner bracket.

NOte:

 Check to ensure cable loops fits tightly over the milford pins.

Insert a short stem track roller into the bottom corner brackets and another into the #1 gradu-

ated end hinges at the top of the bottom section.

NOte:

 Larger doors will use long stem track rollers with double graduated end hinges.

NOte:

 Verify bottom weather seal is aligned with bottom section. If there is more than 1/2” 

excess weather seal on either side, trim weather seal even with bottom section.
