Attaching Top Fixtures To Top Section

Remove, but retain (2 - 4) 1/4” - 14 x 7/8” self drilling screws from the right side of the strut,
allowing enough room to slide the top fixture between the section and the strut. Slide the top
fixture assembly between the strut and section. Align the edge of the top fixture parallel to
the top section edge. Loosely secure the top fixture and strut to the top section with (3) 1/4”
- 20 x 7/8” self drilling screws through the upper and lower slots of the top fixture. Finish re-
attaching the strut using the 1/4” - 20 x 7/8” self drilling screws removed previously. Insert a
short stem track roller into top fixture. Repeat for left hand side.

Stacking Top Section
8
Place the top section in the opening. Install a nail to prevent the top section from falling
backwards. Now, flip up the hinge leaves, hold tight against section, and fasten center hinges
first and end hinges last (refer to step, Stacking Sections). Vertical track alignment is critical.
Position flag angle or wall angle between 1-11/16” (43 mm) to 1-3/4” (44 mm) from the
edge of the door; tighten the bottom lag screw. Flag angles must be parallel to the door sec-
tions. Repeat for other side.
IMPORTANT:
THE DIMENSION BETWEEN THE FLAG ANGLES OR WALL ANGLES MUST BE
DOOR WIDTH PLUS 3-3/8” (86MM) TO 3-1/2” (89 MM) FOR SMOOTH, SAFE DOOR OPERA-
TION.
FOR QUICK INSTALL TRACK:
Complete the vertical track installation by securing the jamb
bracket(s) and tightening the other lag screws. Repeat for other side.
FOR FULLY ADJUSTABLE TRACK OR RIVETED TRACK:
Complete the vertical track instal-
lation by securing the jamb bracket(s) and tightening the other lag screws. Push the vertical
track against the track rollers so that the track rollers are touching the deepest part of the
curved side of the track; tighten all the track bolts and nuts. Repeat for other side.
FOR ANGLE MOUNT TRACK:
Complete the vertical track installation by securing the jamb
bracket(s) and or tightening the other lag screws. Push the vertical track against the track
rollers so that the track rollers are touching the deepest part of the curved side of the vertical
track, as shown. Repeat for other side.
