INTRODUCTION
This manual's main function is to assist the installer in correctly mounting doors with due regard for safety,
operation, and sound construction practices. Reference must be made to construction codes in your area.
All Wayne-Dalton DS-75 and DS-100 Windload Rated Mini Roll-Up Doors follow the general instructions
contained herein. Additional installation information for the specific door shipped is found with the packing slip and
on supplementary drawings. There are also bolt and small sealed parts bags with accessory lists, describing proper
application.

MATERIAL
Inspect your door for possible damage or shortage of parts. Report any shortages to your door supplier immediately,
or transit related damage claims to your freight carrier.

sure that the dimensions are correct for the opening you are working on, taking special note of the opening
