Installation
STEP 1 Determine the header bracket location
To preventpossible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
l
Header bracketMUST be RIGIDLY fastened to structural support on header wall or ceiling,
otherwise garage door might NOT reverse when required. DO NOT install header bracketover
drywall.
l
Concrete anchors MUST be used ifmounting header bracket or 2x4 into masonry.
l
NEVER tryto loosen,move or adjustgarage door,springs,cables,pulleys,brackets,or their
hardware, ALL ofwhich are under EXTREME tension.
l
ALWAYS call a trained door systems technician ifgarage door binds, sticks, or is out of balance.
An unbalanced garage door might NOT reverse when required.
Installation procedures vary according to garage door types. Follow the instructions which apply to your
door.
1. Close the door and markthe inside vertical centerline of the garage door.
2. Extend the line onto the header wall above the door.You can fasten the header bracket within 4
feet(1.22 m) of the left or right of the door center only ifa torsion spring or center bearing plate is
in the way; or you can attach it to the ceiling (see page 12) when clearance isminimal.(Itmay be
mounted on the wall upside down ifnecessary, to gain approximately 1/2" (1 cm). Ifyou need to
install the header bracketon a 2x4 (on wall or ceiling), use lag screws (not provided) to securely
fasten the 2x4 to structural supports asshown here and on page 12.
3. Open your door to the highest point of travel as shown.Draw an intersecting horizontal line on
the header wall 2" (5 cm) above the high point :
l
2" (5 cm) above the high point for sectional door and one-piece door with track.
l
8" (20 cm) above the high point for one-piece door without track.
This height will provide travel clearance for the top edge ofthe door. NOTE: If the total number of inches
exceeds the height available in your garage, use the maximum height possible, or refer to page12 for
ceiling installation.
