Wayne-Dalton 8700 Strut Attachment, Top Fixtures, Step Plate, Graduated Hinge Attachment

5	Graduated Hinge Attachment
	Tools: Power drill,7/16” Socket driver

NOTE: Refer to door section identification, located in the pre-installation section of this manual.

NOTE: The graduated hinges can be identified by the number stamped onto their lower hinge leaf.

Locate the bottom section, (2) #1 graduated end hinges (wide body) for the end stiles and depending on the width of your door, enough #1 center hinge(s) (narrow body) for each of the pre-marked center hinge locations. Starting on the left hand side of the bottom section, align the lower hinge leaf of the #1 graduated end hinge over the holes, located at the top of the end caps. Also, align the lower hinge leafs of the #1 center hinges (narrow body) with the pre-marked locations at the center locations at the top of the section. Attach lower hinge leafs to the section using (2) 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws.

IMPORTANT: Once the 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws are snug against the lower hinge leafs, tighten an additional 1/4 to 1/2 turn to receive maximum design holding power.

Important: Push & hold the hinge leaf securely against the section while securing with 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws. There should be no gap between the hinge leaf and the section.

Place a short stem track roller into each graduated end hinge. Repeat graduated hinge attachment using the appropriate graduated end hinges for all remaining sections except the top section.

IMPORTANT: When placing short stem track rollers into the #2 graduated end hinges and higher, the short stem track roller goes into hinge tube furthest away from section.

Use (2) #2 graduated end hinges (wide body) and the required number of #1 center hinge(s) (narrow body) for each of the center hinge pre-marked location(s) along the top edge of the lock section (second section).

Use (2) #3 graduated end hinges (wide body) and the required number of #1 center hinge(s) (narrow body) for each of the center hinge(s) (narrow body) pre-marked location(s) along the top edge of the intermediate I section (third section).

Use (2) #4 graduated end hinges (wide body) and the required number of #1 center hinge(s) (narrow body) for each of the center hinge pre-marked location(s) along the top edge of the intermediate II section (third section).

6	Strut Attachment
	Tools: Power drill, 7/16” Socket driver, (2) Saw horses, Tape measure

NOTE: Refer to door section identification, located in the pre-installation section of this manual to determine what size sections you need to use as your lock (second) section, inter- mediate I (third) section, intermediate II (fourth section on a five section door) and top section. Measure your sections to make sure they are the correct height as indicated on the chart.

NOTE: Depending on the size of your door, one or more sections may require a strut.

Using sawhorses, lay sections together on a flat smooth surface. Ensure the hinges are on top of their corresponding sections. Referring to the strutting schedule, determine how many struts your door needs and on what sections they are needed to be installed.

NOTE: Sections not noted in the strutting schedule, do not require a strut.

NOTE: All strut(s) are placed at the top of the section.

INSTALLATION ON ALL SECTIONS (EXCEPT TOP SECTION): Place the strut on the section up against the bottom of the hinges. Center the strut side to side on the section as shown. Secure to the section using (2) 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws at each end hinge location and (2) 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screw at each center hinge location.

INSTALLATION ON TOP SECTION: Place the strut on the top section, center the strut side to side on the top edge of the top section. Loosely fasten to the section using (2) 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws at each endstile. The 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws for the endstiles will be secured after step, Top Fixture is completed. Next, secure strut to the section using (2) 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screw at each center hinge location at each pre-marked location.

Remove, but retain the 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws from the right side of the strut, allowing enough room to slide the top fixture between the top section and the strut (if appli- cable). Slide the top fixture between the strut and top section. Align the edge of the top fixture parallel to the top section edge. Secure the top fixture to the top section using (1) 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screw through the lower slot of top fixture. Adjust the top fixture, if neces- sary. Finish re-attaching the strut using the (2) 1/4”-14 x 7/8” self drilling screws removed previously. Insert a short stem track roller into top fixture. Repeat for left hand side.

NOTE: Refer to door section identification, located in the pre-installation section of this manual.

On the inside of the bottom section, locate the vertical center of the door.

Center the inside step plate vertically no higher than 8” from the bottom of the door to the top of the step plate.

IMPORTANT: Do not mount the step plate higher than 8” from the bottom of the section.

Using the inside step plate’s second top most hole and bottom hole as a template, drill 7/16” diameter holes through the entire section.

NOTE: Be extremely careful to keep drill straight when drilling through the section.
