Top Section

Tools: Hammer, Step ladder, Tape measure

Place the top section in the opening. Temporarily secure the top section by driving a nail into the header near the center of the door and bending it over the top section. Now, flip up the graduated end hinge and center hinge leaves, hold tight against section, and fasten center hinges first and end hinges last (refer to step, Stacking Sections). Vertical track alignment is critical. For 2” track, position flag angle/wall angle between 1-11/16” (43 mm) to 1-3/4” (44 mm) from the edge of the door; tighten the bottom lag screw. For 3” track, position flag angle/wall angle between 2-3/16” (56 mm) to 2-1/4” (57 mm) from the edge of the door; tighten the bottom lag screw.

Flag angles/wall angles must be parallel to the door sections. Repeat same process for other side.

Important: The dimension between the flag angles must be:

For 2” track applications: door width plus 3-3/8” (86mm) to 3-1/2” (89 mm) for smooth, safe door operation.

For 3” track applications: door width plus 4-7/8” (124mm) to 5” (127 mm) for smooth, safe door operation.

Complete the vertical track installation by securing the jamb bracket(s) or slots in the wall angle and tightening the other lag screws. Push the vertical track against the track rollers so that the track rollers are touching the deepest part of the curved side of the track; tighten all the track bolts and nuts. Repeat for other side.

Horizontal Tracks

Tools: Ratchet wrench, 7/16” Socket, 9/16” Socket, 9/16” Wrench,

To install horizontal track, place the curved end over the top track roller of the top section. Align the bottom of the horizontal track with the top of the vertical track. Tighten the hori- zontal track to the flag angle/wall angle with (2) 1/4”-20 x 9/16” track bolts and (2) 1/4”-20 flange hex nuts.

WARNING

Do not raise door until horizontal tracks are secured at rear, as outlined in step, Rear Back Hangs, or door could fall from overhead position causing severe or fatal injury.

Level the horizontal track assembly and bolt the horizontal track angle to the first encoun- tered slot in the flag angle/wall angle using (1) 3/8”-16 x 3/4” truss head bolt and (1) 3/8”- 16 hex nut. Repeat for other side.

Remove the nail that was temporarily holding the top section in place, installed in step, Top Section.

Important: Failure to remove nail before attempting to raise door could cause permanent damage to top section.

Note: If an opener will be installed, position horizontal tracks slightly above level.

Adjusting Top Fixtures

Tools: 7/16” Wrench, Step ladder

With horizontal tracks installed, you can now adjust the top fixtures. Vertically align the top section of the door with the lower sections. Once aligned, position the top fixture slide(s) out against the horizontal track. Maintaining the slide(s) position, tighten the 5/16”-18 hex nut(s) to secure the top fixture slide(s) to the top fixture base(s). Repeat for other side.
