Preparing the Opening
IMPORTANT:
IF YOU JUST REMOVED YOUR ExISTING DOOR OR YOU ARE INSTALLING A NEW
DOOR, COMPLETE ALL STEPS IN PREPARING THE OPENING.
To ensure secure mounting of track brackets, side and center brackets, or steel angles to new or
retro-fit construction, it is recommended to follow the procedures outlined in DASMA technical
data sheets #156, #161 and #164 at
www.dasma.com
.
The inside perimeter of your garage door opening should be framed with wood jamb and header
material. The jambs and header must be securely fastened to sound framing members. It is
recommended that 2” x 6” lumber be used. The jambs must be plumb and the header level.
The jambs should extend a minimum of 12” (305 mm) above the top of the opening for Torsion
counterbalance systems. For low headroom applications, the jambs should extend to the ceiling
height. Minimum side clearance required, from the opening to the wall, is 3-1/2” (89 mm).
IMPORTANT:
CLOSELY INSPECT JAMBS, HEADER AND MOUNTING SURFACE. ANY WOOD
FOUND NOT TO BE SOUND, MUST BE REPLACED.
For Torsion counterbalance systems, a suitable mounting surface (2” x 6”) must be firmly at-
tached to the wall, above the header at the center of the opening.
NOTE:
Drill a 3/16” pilot hole in the mounting surface to avoid splitting the lumber. Do not attach
the mounting surface with nails.
WEATHERSTRIPS (MAy NOT BE INCLuDED):
Depending on the size of your door, you may have to cut or trim the weatherstrips (if necessary)
to properly fit into the header and jambs.
NOTE:
If nailing product at 40°F or below, pre-drilling is required.
NOTE:
Do not permanently attach weatherstrips to the header and jambs at this time.
For Quick Install track: For the header, align the weatherstrip with the inside edge of the header
and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the
jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header
and flush with the inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally
spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the
opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.
For Fully Adjustable track: For the header, align the weatherstrip 1/8” to 1/4” inside the header
edge, and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side
of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the
header and 1/8” to 1/4” inside the jamb edge. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally
spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the
opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.
Headroom requirement:
Headroom is defined as the space needed above the top of the door
