STEP 1
UNPACKING DOORS
Before removing the door from any packaging, inspect the door and packaging for visible signs of damage. If
damage is noted, file a freight claim with the freight company immediately. Remove the door from the packaging.
Do not cut tape that holds door in a roll. You will be told in step
#7 when to cut tape.
No guarantee will be given by Wayne-Dalton Corp. if the door is not erected as instructed. For best operation, follow
the instructions step by step. Please review all instructions thoroughly before starting installation.
STEP 2
CHECK THE DOOR OPENING
Verify the opening measurements with the door packing slip. Consult the factory if the actual opening width varies
from that shown on the packing slip by more than 2 inches. Check to make certain that the door opening is plum and
that the floor is level. Check to be certain there is sufficient clearance from the opening to the ceiling and the
sidewalls (see Required Clearances below).
