drywall.
l
Concreteanchors MUST be used if mounting header bracketor 2x4 intomasonry.
l
NEVER try to loosen, move or adjustgarage door,springs,cables,pulleys,brackets,or their
hardware, ALL of which are under EXTREME tension.

2. Extend the line onto the header wall above thedoor.You can fasten the header bracketwithin 4
feet(1.22 m) ofthe left or right of the door center onlyifa torsion spring or centerbearing plate is
in the way;or you can attach it to the ceiling (seepage 12) when clearance is minimal.(Itmaybe
mounted on the wall upside down ifnecessary, to gain approximately 1/2" (1 cm).Ifyou need to
install the header bracket on a 2x4 (on wall or ceiling), uselag screws (not provided) to securely
fasten the2x4 to structural supports as shown here and on page 12.
3. Open your door to the highestpoint of travel as shown.Draw an intersecting horizontal line on
the header wall 2"(5 cm) abovethe high point :
l
2" (5 cm)above the high pointfor sectional door and one-piece door with track.
l
8" (20 cm) above the high point for one-piece door withouttrack.
Thisheight will provide travel clearancefor the top edge ofthe door. NOTE: Ifthe total number of inches
exceeds the heightavailable in your garage, use the maximum heightpossible, or refer to page12 for
