tance 8 1/4" (210 mm) from hinge

General tips/Safety concerns
For enhanced security and vandalism protection, always mount the operator access in the
interior of a building whenever possible.
Make sure that the power is off before installing.
Make sure that the door leaf and the wall are properly reinforced at the installation points.
Inspect the door hinges before installation to ensure that they are in good repair.
