These instructions assume one end of the tracks will be attached to the
house and the other to wood frame supports constructed on site. It is
recommended that the vertical posts of the wood support frame be
constructed of at least 4” x 4” lumber. Construction of vertical posts with
2” x 4” lumber is discouraged. There are only small differences between
standard track and Heavy Duty Track for projections over 16’. Look for *’s
to find special instructions for Heavy Duty Track.
