| Data Sheets #156, #161 and #164 at www.dasma.com. |
|
|
|
| ||
| The inside perimeter of your garage door opening should be framed |
|
|
|
| ||
| with wood jamb and header material. The jambs and header must |
|
|
|
| ||
| be securely fastened to sound framing members. It is recommended |
|
|
|
| ||
| that 2” x 6” lumber be used. The jambs must be plumb and the |
|
|
|
| ||
| header level. The jambs should extend a minimum of 12” (305 mm) |
| headroom |
|
| ||
| above the top of the opening for TorqueMaster® Plus counterbalance |
|
|
|
| ||
| systems. For low headroom applications, the jambs should extend | header |
|
| backroom | ||
| to the ceiling height. Minimum side clearance required, from the |
|
|
|
| ||
| opening to the wall, is |
|
|
|
| ||
| IMPORTANT: Closely inspect jambs, header and mounting surface. |
|
|
| jamb | ||
| Any wood found not to be sound, must be replaced. |
|
|
| |||
|
|
|
|
| |||
| For TorqueMaster® Plus counterbalance systems, a suitable |
|
|
|
| ||
| mounting surface (2” x 4”) must be firmly attached to the wall, |
|
|
|
| ||
| above the header at the center of the opening. |
|
|
|
| ||
| NOTE: Drill a 3/16” pilot hole in the mounting surface to avoid |
| WEATHER SEAL |
|
| ||
| splitting the lumber. Do not attach the mounting surface with nails. |
|
|
| |||
|
|
|
|
| |||
| Weather Seal (May Not Be Included): |
|
|
|
| ||
| Cut or trim the weather seal (if necessary) to the header and jambs. |

|
| ||
| For quick install track: Align the header seal with the inside edge |
|
|
| |||
|
|
|
|
| |||
| of the header and temporarily secure it to the header with equally |
|
|
|
| ||
| spaced nails. Next, fit the jamb seals up tight against the header |
|
|
|
| ||
| seal and flush with the inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure |
|
|
|
| ||
| the jamb seals with equally spaced nails. This will keep the bottom |
|
|
|
| ||
| section from falling out of the opening during installation. Space |
|
|
|
| ||
| nails approximately 12” apart. |
