NOTE: If nailing product at 40°F or below, pre-drilling is required.

NOTE: Allow the weatherstrips to return to room temperature prior to nailing to jambs.

NOTE: Do not permanently attach weatherstrips to the header and jambs at this time.

For Quick Install track: For the header, align the weatherstrip with the inside edge of the header and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header and flush with the inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.

For Fully Adjustable track: For the header, align the weatherstrip 1/8” to 1/4” inside the head- er edge, and temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the jamb, fit the weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header and 1/8” to 1/4” inside the jamb edge. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally spaced nails. Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during installation. Equally space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.

Headroom requirement: Headroom is defined as the space needed above the top of the door for tracks, springs, etc. to allow the door to open properly. If the door is to be motor operated, 2-1/2” (64 mm) of additional headroom is required.

Note: 6” low headroom conversion kit is available for 12” radius only. Contact your local Wayne-Dalton dealer.

Backroom requirement: Backroom is defined as the distance needed from the opening back into the garage to allow the door to open fully.
