resulting in damage to opener or possible
personal injury!
Align the center of opener’s rail assembly
with the center line previously marked on
the top section of the garage door to ensure
rail will be parallel with the direction of door
travel.
Using perforated angles (cut to proper
length) hang opener end from ceiling joist.
Be sure to locate and mount to ceiling joists,
as illustrated.
Pilot drill with 1/8” drill bit and use
1/4” x 1-1/2” lag screws (not supplied) to
ensure a rigid mount. Attach opener to
perforated angles using 5/16” x 3/4” bolts,
5/16” lock washer, and 5/16” nuts (not

provide rigid support.
When opener is securely attached to
perforated angles, remove the 2” x 4” (used
to support rail assembly in Step 4) and
close the door.
NOTE: It is recommended that 10’ rails be
supported in the center to prevent sagging.
Opener rail should be aligned perpendicular
to the garage door when properly installed.
There should be no sagging of the rail in
any direction.
