Bottom Bracket Installation
Locate the bottom bracket assembly and align it to the
bottom of the post. Secure the bottom bracket to the
bottom of the windload post using (4) 1/4-20 x 11/16”
self-drilling screws. (see Fig. 3)
NOTE: The bottom of the windload post is flush while
the top is offset.
At each windload post location, mark a center line on
the floor that is aligned with the center of J-struts.
Measure out from the back of the door (see Fig. 4) 6” for 9100 doors and 6-1/2” for 9600/9900 doors and make a
second mark as shown in Fig. 5. Using a masonry bit, drill (1) 5/8” x 4” deep hole into the concrete. Clean out the
hole.
IMPORTANT! FOR PROPER OPERATION OF THE WINDLOAD POST, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT
THE DIMENSION “X” BE HELD TO ASSURE
THE POST IS INSTALLED PLUMB.

Header Lock Bracket Installation
Mark a vertical line on the header, aligned with the
center of the J-struts. Measure up 2” above the top of
the door and mark a horizontal line. Center the header
lock bracket with the vertical line and align the bottom
of the header lock bracket with the horizontal line.
Secure the header lock bracket to the header using (4)
5/16” x 1-5/8” lag screws. (see Fig. 2)
NOTE: It is recommended that lag screws be pilot
drilled using a 3/16” drill bit prior to fastening.
IMPORTANT! IF THERE IS DRYWALL OR OTHER MATERIALS COVERING THE HEADER IT IS
REQUIRED THAT SUCH MATERIALS BE REMOVED FROM THE HEADER LOCK BRACKET
LOCATION(S) AND REPLACED WITH THE SAME THICKNESS OF WOOD BEFORE INSTALLING
THE HEADER LOCK BRACKET(S). IF THIS PROCESS MUST BE DONE, THE LENGTH OF THE
LAG SCREWS MUST BE INCREASED TO INCLUDE THE THICKNESS OF WOOD MATERIALS SO
THAT A MINIMUM OF 1-1/2” PENETRATION INTO THE EXISTING HEADER IS OBTAINED.
