Tools Needed:
INSTALLATION
Rear Support

MAXIMUM OF DOOR EDGE,
OTHERWISE DOOR COULD FALL,
RESULTING IN SEVERE INJURY OR

Raise the door until the top section and
half of the next section are in a horizontal
position. Do not raise door any further
since rear of horizontal track is not yet
supported.
RAISING DOOR FURTHER CAN
RESULT IN DOOR FALLING AND
CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
Clamp a pair of vice clamps on the
vertical tracks just above the second
roller on one side, just below the second
roller on the other side. This will prevent
the door from raising or lowering while
installing the rear support.
Using perforated angle, 5/16” x 1-5/8”
hex head lag screws and 5/16” bolts
with nuts (may not be supplied), fabricate
rear support for horizontal tracks. Attach
horizontal tracks to the rear supports
with 5/16”- 18 x 1-1/4” hex bolts and
nuts (may not be supplied). Horizontal
tracks must be level and parallel with
door.
NOTE: If rear supports are to be installed
over drywall, use 5/16” x 2” hex head lag
screws.
Adjust weather seal or door stop (if
necessary) Now permanently attach the
weather seal or door stop to both door
jambs and header. (Temporarily attached
in PREPARING THE OPENING on page 10.)
