Fasten The Door Bracket - Raynor ControlHoist ATS2113X-CX Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION STEP 11

Fasten the Door Bracket

A horizontal brace should be long enough to be
secured to 2 vertical supports. A vertical brace
should cover the height of the top panel.
The illustration shows one piece of angle iron as the
horizontal brace. For the vertical brace, 2 pieces of
angle iron are used to create a "U"-shaped support.
The best solution is to check with your garage door
manufacturer for an opener installation door
reinforcement kit.
• Center the door bracket on the previously marked
vertical guideline used for the header bracket
installation.
• Position the bracket on the face of the door within
the following limits:
A) The top edge of the bracket 2"-4" (5-10 cm)
below the top edge of the door.
B) The top edge of the bracket directly below any
structural support across the top of the door.
• Mark and drill 5/16" left and right fastening holes.
Secure the bracket as shown in Figure 1 if there is
vertical reinforcement.
