Locate the center of the door.
Mark a vertical pencil line on the mounting surface above the door, at the center.
Measure from the center of the bearing, in one of the head plates / end bearing brackets,
downwards, to the top the door. Using that measurement, measure that distance upwards
from the top of the door to the mounting surface and mark a horizontal pencil line which
intersects the vertical pencil line(s). Align the edge of the spring anchor bracket(s) / center
bracket(s) with the vertical pencil line and the center of the spring anchor bracket(s) / center
bracket(s) with the horizontal pencil line; this is to ensure the torsion shaft is level between
the spring anchor bracket / center bracket and head plates / end bearing brackets.

5/16” x 2” lag screws and (1) 5/16” x 2” tamper-resistant lag screw.
NOTE: It is recommended that 5/16” lag screws are pilot drilled using a 3/16” drill bit, prior
