Note:
For doors requiring a Low Head Room Installation (see
Page 2, Table 1), see Supplement Page 2 or 3.
Step 27: Horizontal Track to Flag Bracket Attachment
(Left Side Assembly shown)
Place the curved end of the Horizontal Track Assembly over
the roller in the Top Fixture and attach to the Flag Bracket with
(2) 1/4”x5/8” Track Splice Bolts and (2) 1/4”-20 Hex Nuts
(Figure 16A). Temporarily support the back end of the track
using a rope or wire attached to the ceiling to support the
back end of the track.
Note:
1/4”-20 Hex Nuts always go on the outside of the track.
Step 28: Horizontal Angle to Flag Bracket Attachment
Attach the end of the Horizontal Angle to the Flag Bracket with
(1) 3/8”x3/4” Low Shoulder Carriage Bolts and (1) 3/8”-16
Hex Nut (Figure 16B).
Note:
For 2” thick doors use the second slot on the Flag
Bracket (farthest from the jamb).
Note:
3/8”-16 Hex Nuts always go on the outside of the
assembly (away from the door).
Step 29: Track Hanger Installation
(see Supplement
Page 4)
Replace support rope or wire with metal Angle Hangers
(Purchased separately, recommend minimum 14 gauge)
(Figure 16C & E). Hangers need to be level and plumb. Angle
must fasten to studs (see Supplement).
Note:
Repeat steps 27 - 29 for Right Side Horizontal
Assembly.
Important:
Horizontal Track must be spaced 3/8“ from the
sections to prevent the sections from falling out of the track.
Step 30: Inspecting the Track Installation
Using a tape measure and level, make sure the track is level
and square with the opening (Figure 16). Make sure that the
distance between the track and the door is equal at the
bottom of the Vertical Track, at the curve of the horizontal,
and at the back of the Horizontal Track (approximately 3/8”).
Adjustment to the track position may need to be made later,
after the springs are installed and the door is opened to
maintain the proper spacing.
Step 31: Adjusting the Top Fixture
With the door in the closed position, tighten the slide on the
Top Fixture by pushing the top section tight against the
opening and lightly pulling the top slide toward the inside of
the garage (Figure 16D). Tighten the nuts.
Step 32: Remove all Temporary Nails
Step 33: Pull Rope Installation (no Electric Opener
only)
If an electric opener is not used, attach one end of the pull
rope to the Safety Bottom Bracket and the other end to the
second Jamb Bracket. To prevent accidents, DO NOT INSTALL
PULL ROPE IF ELECTRIC OPENER IS USED.
Go to page 7 for Torsion Spring installation
instructions. Refer to the Supplemental Instructions for
Extension Spring installation instructions. After springs are
installed, proceed to Step 34.
Step 34: Secure the Perimeter Seal
Close the door from the outside and permanently nail the
Perimeter Seal for a snug fit so that the seal does not bind the
door. Wax the hard edge of the seal to prevent binding (if
necessary).
Step 35: Install Safety Stickers to Door
Install supplied Safety Stickers as shown in Fig 16.
Step 36: Final Check
A. Make sure there is a 3/8” clearance between the
door and the track along the entire horizontal and vertical
track assemblies. Adjust as necessary.
B. Make sure the door is square with the opening.
C. If the door does not operate easily, make sure that the door
to track spacing is correct and that the door is not binding.
