when its edge reaches its highest point.
• Measure distance (“H”) from top edge of door to floor.
– For sectional doors,add 2-1/2" to “H”. Mark a point
on center line. Bottom of Header Bracket will be
installed here.
– For one-piece doors,add 6" to “H”. Mark this point on
center line. Bottom of Header Bracket will be
installed here.
C Check wall for a stud or a solid header at your mark:
(If checking a finished wall,a stud finder may be helpful).
• If location is above Header,a 2" x 6" board must be
screwed to studs beside your mark with at least two Lag
Screws and Flat Washers (not provided).
