PREPARATION
Remove all parts. THE WRAPPING HOLDING THE DOOR MUST NOT BE CUT AT THIS STAGE.
The doors are positioned inside the opening and, therefore, overlap the opening on each side by 25mm for series A and 50mm for Series AA doors. A
minimum of 75mm is required between the opening and the side wall for Series A doors, 150mm for Series AA.
Before commencing, measure both the opening and the door curtain and mark the overlap on the wall to facilitate the fixing of brackets and guides.

AFFIXING MOUNTING BRACKETS
The minimum headroom required between the underside of the rafters and the top of the opening is
400mm for Series A doors and 450mm for Series AA doors.
Firmly secure one of the mounting brackets with appropriate fixings for the material you are fixing to,
(Refer table 2.0 for maximum pull out strength requirements while selecting fixings). It is important that
the outside face (smooth side) of the angle brackets faces the side wall of the garage.
The clearance on either side between the door curtain and mounting brackets is 10mm minimum and
100mm maximum. (Manual Doors Only)
The top of the bearing surface of the mounting brackets should be 150mm from the top of the opening,
and 250mm minimum from the underside of the rafters. In the event of shallower headroom, the
250mm dimensions must be maintained. Shallower headroom's down to 300mm can be maintained,
but will result in the underside of the rolled up door showing when the door is in the open position.
The second mounting bracket should then be positioned. The use of a line level or spirit level and
straight edge is recommended as IT IS VITAL THAT THE BRACKETS ARE EXACTLY LEVEL WITH
EACH OTHER, otherwise the door will not sit square. The minimum 250mm dimension must be
maintained.

  • Page 2 POSITIONING THE DOOR First make sure the axle is centered within the curtain roll. Place the rolled up door on the mounting brackets and centre the axle approximately 250mm from the front wall, ensuring that the door is centralized with the opening. N.B If the side clearance for the axle is insufficient, cut EACH END of the axle.
  • Page 3 Lift the door manually to waist height, say one metre above the floor level you should be able to lift the door with little effort and the door should stay open at that position. • If the door does not stay at that position (one metre) implies the door is out of balance.

PAINTING Although the rust proofed Gliderol Garage Doors does not require painting, it is recommended that if decorating is desired painting be carried out immediately after installation.
