Identify the type and height of your garage door. 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 Step 1 – Look at the wall or ceiling above
the garage door. The header bracket must be securely
fastened to structural supports.
• Installation Step 5 – Do you have a finished ceiling in
your garage? If so, a support bracket and additional
fastening hardware may be required.
• Installation Step 11 – Depending upon garage
construction, extension brackets or wood blocks may be
needed to install sensors.
• Installation Step 11 – Alternate floor mounting of the
safety reversing sensor will require hardware not
provided.
• Do you have an access door in addition to the garage
door? If not, Model 7702CB Emergency Key Release is
required. See Accessories page.
• Look at the garage door where it meets the floor. Any
gap between the floor and the bottom of the door must
not exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, the safety reversal
system may not work properly. See Adjustment Step 3.
Floor or door should be repaired.
SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATIONS
• Do you have a steel, aluminum, fiberglass or glass
panel door? If so, horizontal and vertical reinforce ment
is required (Installation Step 12).
• The opener should be installed above the center of the
door. If there is a torsion spring or center bearing plate
in the way of the header bracket, it may be installed
within 4 feet (1.2 m) to the left or right of the door
center. See Installation Steps 1 and 12.
• If your door is more than 7 feet (2.1 m) high, see rail
extension kits listed on Accessories page.
SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATION
Horizontal and vertical reinforcement
is needed for lightweight garage doors
(fiberglass, steel, aluminum, door with
glass panels, etc.). See page 24 for details.

Determine the Header Bracket Location
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
• Header bracket MUST be RIGIDLY fastened to structural
support on header wall or ceiling, otherwise garage door
might not reverse when required. DO NOT install header
bracket over drywall.
• Concrete anchors MUST be used if mounting header bracket
or 2x4 into masonry.
• NEVER try to loosen, move or adjust garage door, springs,
cables, pulleys, brackets, or their hardware, ALL of which
are under EXTREME tension.
• ALWAYS call a trained door systems technician if garage
door binds, sticks, or is out of balance. An unbalanced
garage door might not reverse when required.
Installation procedures vary according to garage door
types. Follow the instructions which apply to your door.
1. Close the door and mark the inside vertical centerline of
the garage door.
2. Extend the line onto the header wall above the door.
You can fasten the header bracket within
4 feet (1.22 m) of the left or right of the door center
only if a torsion spring or center bearing plate is
in the way; or you can attach it to the ceiling
(see page 13) when clearance is minimal. (It may
be mounted on the wall upside down if necessary, to
gain approximately 1/2" (1 cm).)
If you need to install the header bracket on a 2x4
(on wall or ceiling), use lag screws (not provided)
to securely fasten the 2x4 to structural supports as
shown here and on page 13.
3. Open your door to the highest point of travel as shown.
Draw an inter secting horizontal line on the header wall
above the high point:
• 2" (5 cm) above the high point for sectional door and
one-piece door with track.
• 8" (20 cm) above the high point for one-piece door
without track.
This height will provide travel clearance for the top edge
of the door.
NOTE:
available in your garage, use the maximum height
possible, or refer to page 13 for ceiling installation.

inside the bracket on each side of the rail, as illustrated.
• Position the opener on the garage floor below the
header bracket. Use packing material as a protective
base.
NOTE:
If the door spring is in the way, you will
need help. Have someone hold the opener securely on
a temporary support to allow the rail to clear the spring.
• Position the rail bracket against the header bracket.
• Align the bracket holes and join with a clevis pin
as shown.
• Insert a ring fastener to secure.
