If headroom clearance is minimal, you can install
the header bracket on the ceiling. See page 14.

to securely fasten the 2x4 to structural supports
as shown.

door to the floor. Subtract the actual height of the
door. Add 8" to the remainder. (See Example).

line on the header wall at the determined height.
NOTE: If the total number of inches exceeds the
height available in your garage, use the maximum
height possible, or refer to page 14 for ceiling
