PLANNING

Identify the type and height of your garage door. If you

have a one-piece door, follow the assembly

instructions contained in this manual and refer to the

Installation Instructions One-Piece Door for

installation procedures. Survey your garage area to see

if any of the conditions below apply to your installation.

Additional materials may be required. You may find it

helpful to refer back to this page and the accompanying

illustrations as you proceed with the installation of your

opener.

Depending on your requirements, there are several

installation steps which may call for materials or hardware

not included in the carton.

• Installation Page 10 – Look at the wall or ceiling above

the garage door. The header bracket must be securely

fastened to structural supports.

• Installation Page 12 – Do you have a finished ceiling in

your garage? If so, a support bracket and additional

fastening hardware may be required.

• Installation Page 13 – Do you have a steel, aluminum,

fiberglass or glass panel door? If so, horizontal and

vertical reinforcement is required.

• Installation Page 18 – Depending upon garage

construction, extension brackets or wood blocks may be

needed to install sensors.

• Installation Page 18 – Alternate floor mounting of the

safety reversing sensor will require hardware not

provided.

Horizontal and vertical reinforcement

is needed for lightweight garage doors

(fiberglass, steel, aluminum, door with

glass panels, etc.) See page 13 for details.
