NOTE: If you don’t have track roller carriers, then skip this step. Refer to Package Contents /
Parts Breakdown, to determine if track roller carriers were supplied with your door.
Starting on left hand side of the bottom section, attach the track roller carrier with the stamp

carrier with the four holes in the bottom corner bracket. Mark and pre-drill (4) 1/8” diameter
holes and secure the track roller carrier to the bottom corner bracket and bottom section
using (4) 1/4”-14 x 1” lag screws.
Insert a short/long stem track roller and spacer into the inner/outer holes of the track roller
carrier. Repeat the same process for the right hand side.
NOTE: The track roller carrier’s inner holes are used on doors with 2” track applications with
a short stem track roller; the outer holes are used on doors with 3” track applications with a
long stem track roller.

rail of the bottom section. Center the long strut from side to side, as shown.
