Introduction, Preparation, Material, Tools

INTRODUCTION

This manual's main function is to assist the installer in correctly installing the doors to ensure safe operation. Compliance with building codes, enforced in your area, is required.

All Wayne-Dalton DS-50, DS-75, and DS-100 Mini Roll-Up Doors follow these general instructions. Additional installation information for the specific door shipped is found with the packing slip and on supplementary drawings. There are also bolt and small sealed parts bags with accessory lists, describing proper application.

PREPARATION

Read the installation instructions thoroughly to become familiar with the names of the various components and their relation to each other. It is necessary for the installer to determine the following:

Type of jamb material (wood, masonry, or steel) on which the door guides will be mounted.

The dimensions for the opening width, opening height, headroom, and side room.

Type of support brackets provided (bearing bracket or Tension-Pro™ bracket).

MATERIAL

Inspect your door for possible damage or shortage of parts. Immediately report any shortages to your door supplier, or transit related damage claims to your freight carrier.

CLEARANCES

Compare the door opening dimensions and available clearances against the dimensions listed on the packing slip, taking special note of the opening width and height.

TOOLS

Commonly used tools for proper installation are:

Electric drill with 3/8" or 1/2" chuck with nut driver and drill bits.

Masonry drill or impact hammer and bits.

Ladders and/or scaffolding.

Hammer and pliers.

Large Pipe Wrench (if Tension-Pro bracket).

Center punch and Screwdrivers.

Wrenches, vise grips, and C-clamps.

Tape measure and a water level.
