OF THE BUILDING’S FLOOR, THE VERTICAL TRACKS AND THE DOOR BOTTOM SECTION
ASSEMBLY SHOULD BE INSTALLED SUCH THAT WHEN THE FLOOR IS CONSTRUCTED, NO
DOOR OR TRACK PARTS ARE TRAPPED IN THE FLOOR CONSTRUCTION.
IMPORTANT: THE TOPS OF THE VERTICAL TRACK ASSEMBLIES MUST BE LEVEL FROM SIDE
TO SIDE. IF THE BOTTOM SECTION WAS SHIMMED TO LEVEL IT, THE VERTICAL TRACK AS-
SEMBLY ON THE SHIMMED SIDE MUST BE RAISED THE HEIGHT OF THE SHIM.
Position the left hand vertical track assembly over the track rollers of the bottom section.
Make sure the counterbalance lift cable is located between the track rollers and the door
jamb. Drill 3/16” pilot holes into the door jamb for the lag screws.
FOR QUICK INSTALL FLAG ANGLES OR FULLY ADJUSTABLE FLAG ANGLES: Loosely
fasten jamb brackets and flag angle to the jamb using 5/16” x 1-5/8” lag screws. Tighten lag
screws, securing the bottom jamb bracket to jamb, maintain 3/8” to 5/8” spacing, between
the bottom section and vertical track. Hang counterbalance lift cable over flag angle. Repeat
same process for other side.
