NOTE: If you don’t have drum wraps, then skip this step. Refer to Package Contents / Parts
Breakdown, to determine if you have drum wraps.
Starting on the left hand side, position the left hand drum wrap, as shown. Slide the left hand
drum wrap over the cable drum assembly.
IMPORTANT: PULL THE COUNTERBALANCE LIFT CABLE AWAY FROM THE HEADER TO
CLEAR THE LATCH, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY SLIDING THE DRUM WRAP AGAINST THE LAST
RIB UNTIL THE THREE CATCHES ENGAGE THE 3RD RIB.
Secure the hinge latch by rotating upward until a distinct snap is felt. Confirm the catch is

IMPORTANT: HOLD THE DOOR DOWN TO PREVENT IT FROM RISING UNEXPECTEDLY IN THE
EVENT THE SPRING(S) WAS OVER-WOUND AND CAUTIOUSLY REMOVE VICE CLAMPS FROM
VERTICAL TRACKS.
Raise the door until the top section and half of the next section are in the horizontal track
radius. Do not raise door any further since rear of horizontal tracks are not yet supported.
WARNING WARNING
RAISING DOOR FURTHER CAN RESULT IN DOOR FALLING AND CAUSE
SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.
Clamp a pair of vice clamps onto the vertical tracks just above the second track roller on one
side, and just below the second track roller on the other side. This will prevent the door from
raising or lowering while installing the rear back hangs.
Using perforated angle (may not be supplied), (2) 5/16” x 1-5/8” hex head lag screws and
(3) 5/16” bolts with nuts (may not be supplied), fabricate rear back hangs for the horizontal
tracks. Attach the horizontal tracks to the rear back hangs with 5/16”-18 x 1 hex bolts and
nuts (may not be supplied). Horizontal tracks must be level and parallel with door within 3/4”
to 7/8” maximum of door edge.
NOTE: If an idrive
®
opener is installed, position horizontal tracks one hole above level when
securing it to the rear back hangs.
WARNING WARNING
KEEP HORIZONTAL TRACKS PARALLEL AND WITHIN 3/4” TO 7/8” MAXI-
MUM OF DOOR EDGE, OTHERWISE DOOR COULD FALL, RESULTING IN
SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE DOOR ON ANY PART OF THE REAR
BACK HANGS THAT CANTILEVERS 4” OR MORE BEYOND A SOUND FRAMING MEMBER.
NOTE: If rear back hangs are to be installed over drywall, use (2) 5/16” x 2” hex head lag
screws and make sure lag screws engage into solid structural lumber.
NOTE: 26” angle must be attached to sound framing members and nails should not be
used.
Now, permanently attach the weatherstrips on both door jambs and header. The weather-
strips were temporarily attached in Preparing the Opening, in the pre-installation section of
this manual.
NOTE: When permanently attaching the weatherstrips to the jambs, avoid pushing the weath-
erstrips too tightly against the face of door.
