Preparing the Opening
WARNING
FAILURE TO SECURELY ATTACH A SUITABLE MOUNTING PAD TO
STRUCTURALLY SOUND FRAMING MEMBER COULD CAUSE SPRINGS TO
VIOLENTLY PULL MOUNTING PAD FROM WALL, RESULTING IN SEVERE
OR FATAL INJURY.
If you just removed your existing door or you are installing a new door,
complete all steps in PREPARING THE OPENING.
To ensure secure mounting of track brackets, side and center
bearing brackets, or steel angles to new or retro-fit construction, it is
recommended to follow the procedures outlined in DASMA Technical
Data Sheets #156, #161 and #164 at www.dasma.com.
The inside perimeter of your garage door opening should be framed
with wood jamb and header material. The jambs and header must be
securely fastened to sound framing members. It is recommended that
2” x 6” lumber be used. The jambs must be plumb and the header
level. The jambs should extend a minimum of 14” (356 mm) above the
top of the opening for Torsion spring applications. For low headroom
applications, the jambs should extend to the ceiling height. Minimum
side clearance required, from the opening to the wall, is 3-1/2” (89
mm).
IMPORTANT: CLOSELY INSPECT EXISTING JAMBS, HEADER AND
MOUNTING SURFACE. ANY WOOD FOUND NOT TO BE SOUND, MUST BE
REPLACED.
For Torsion spring applications, a suitable mounting surface must
be firmly attached to the wall, above the header at the center
of the opening. The mounting surface must be 2” x 6” lumber
minimum (Select southern yellow pine lumber. Do not use lumber
marked as spruce-pine-fur or SPF). The mounting surface must be
securely attached to the wall with four (4) 3/8” anchors for masonry
constructions or four (4) 5/16” x 4” lag screws for wood construction.
NOTE: Drill a 3/16” pilot hole in the mounting surface to avoid splitting
the lumber. Do not attach the mounting surface with nails.

Weather Seal (May Not Be Included):
Cut the weather seal if necessary to fit the header and jambs.
Align the header seal with the inside edge of the header and
temporarily secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Next,
fit the jamb seals up tight against the header seal and flush with the
inside edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the jamb seals with equally
space nails approximately 12” to 18” apart. This will keep the bottom
section from falling out of the opening during installation.
NOTE: Do not permanently attach weather seal to the jamb at this time.
HEADROOM REQUIREMENT: Headroom is defined as the space needed
above the top of the door for tracks, springs, etc. to allow the door to
open properly. If the door is to be motor operated, 2-1/2” (64 mm) of
additional headroom is required.
BACKROOM REQUIREMENT: Backroom is defined as the distance
needed from the opening back into the garage to allow the door to
open fully.

Installation
Begin the installation of the door by checking the opening. It must be the same size as the door. Vertical jambs must be plumb and level with header. Side clearance, from
edge of door to wall, must be a minimum of 3-1/2” (89mm) on each side.
IMPORTANT: STAINLESS STEEL OR PT 2000 COATED LAG SCREWS MUST BE USED WHEN INSTALLING CENTER BEARING BRACKETS, END BRACKETS, JAMB BRACKETS,
OPERATOR MOUNTING/SUPPORT BRACKETS AND DISCONNECT BRACKETS ON TREATED LUMBER (PRESERVATIVE-TREATED). STAINLESS STEEL OR PT 2000 COATED LAG
SCREWS ARE NOT NECESSARY WHEN INSTALLING PRODUCTS ON UN-TREATED LUMBER.
IMPORTANT: WHEN INSTALLING 5/16” DIAMETER LAG SCREWS USING AN ELECTRIC DRILL/DRIVER, THE DRILL/DRIVER’S CLUTCH MUST BE SET TO DELIVER NO MORE THAN
200 IN. LBS. OF TORQUE. FASTENER FAILURE COULD OCCUR AT A HIGHER SETTING.
NOTE: It is recommended that 5/16” lag screws be pilot drilled using a 3/16” drill bit, prior to fastening.

Lift Handle Installation
NOTE: For door section identification see page 4.
NOTE: Use reference illustrations below for lift
handles positions on singles and double car garage.
Measure the width of the center stile which will
receive the lift handle(s). Divide that measurement
in half and mark a vertical line on the center of the
stile.
If you are installing two lift handles on the stile,
you will need to measure from the edge of the
center stile to the center line mark. Divide that
measurement in half and draw a second and third
vertical line parallel to the previously made center
line mark.
Measure the height of the panel. Divide that
measurement in half and mark a horizontal line,
intersecting the vertical line(s) previously marked.
Measure up 3 7/8” from the intersecting line(s) and
mark another horizontal line.
Use the point(s) where the top horizontal line
intersects the vertical line(s) to locate the top hole of
the lift handle(s).
Using the lift handle as a template, mark this
location on the stile. Keeping the carriage handle
aligned on the vertical line, mark the lower carriage
handle hole on the stile.

Place the top section in the opening and vertically
align with lower sections.
Temporarily secure the top section by driving a nail in
the header near the center of the door and bending
it over the top section. Now flip up hinge leaf against
section, fastening center hinges first, and end hinges
last. (Refer to Step 6).
When installing a door with a Torquemaster® Plus
counterbalance system, vertical track alignment is
critical. Position flagangle between 1-11/16” (43 mm)
to 1-3/4” (44 mm) from the edge of the door. Tighten
the bottom lag screw. Flagangles must be parallel to
the door sections.
Repeat for opposite side.
IMPORTANT: THE DIMENSION BETWEEN THE
FLAGANGLES MUST BE DOOR WIDTH PLUS 3-3/8”
(86MM) TO 3-1/2” (89 MM) FOR SMOOTH, SAFE
DOOR OPERATION.
Complete the vertical track installation by securing
the center jamb bracket(s) and tightening the other
lag screws. Push the vertical track against the rollers
so that the rollers are touching the deepest part of
the curved side of the track (see illustration); tighten
all the track bolts and nuts.
Repeat for opposite side.

Cleaning
Cleaning Your Garage Door
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER ON YOUR GARAGE DOOR!
While factory-applied finishes on garage doors are durable, it is desirable to clean them on a routine basis. Some discoloration of the finish may occur when a door has been
exposed to dirt-laden atmosphere for a period of time. Slight chalking may also occur as a result of direct exposure to sunlight.
Cleaning the door will generally restore the appearance of the finish. To maintain an aesthetically pleasing finish of the garage door, a periodic washing of the garage door is
recommended.
The following cleaning solution is recommended:
A mild detergent solution consisting of one cup detergent (with less than 0.5% phosphate) dissolved into five gallons of warm water will aid in the removal of most dirt.
NOTE: The use of detergents containing greater than 0.5% phosphate is not recommended for use in general cleaning of garage doors.
NOTE: Be sure to clean behind weather stripping on both sides and top of door.
CAUTION: NEVER MIX CLEANSERS OR DETERGENTS WITH BLEACH.
GLASS CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Clean with a mild detergent solution (same as above) and a soft cloth. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly.
ACRYLIC CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Clean acrylic glazing with nonabrasive soap or detergent and plenty of water. Use your bare hands to feel and dislodge any caked on particles. A soft, grit-free cloth, sponge
or chamois may be used to wipe the surface. Do not use hard or rough cloths that will scratch the acrylic glazing. Dry glazing with a clean damp chamois.
NOTE: DO NOT USE any window cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty cloths or solvent-based cleaners of any kind.

Painting
Painting Instructions For Steel and Wood Doors.
Steel (Surface Preparation for Painting)
Wax on the surface must be removed or paint peeling/flaking will result. To remove this wax, it will be necessary to lightly scuff the surface with a fine steel wool pad,
saturated with soapy water. A final wipe and rinse should be done with clean water only, to remove any loose particles and any soapy film residue.
Surface scratches, which have not exposed the metal substrate, can be lightly buffed or sanded with 0000 steel wool or No. 400 sand paper to create a smoother surface.
Care must be taken to not expose the substrate under the paint. Once the substrate is exposed, the likelihood for rusting is greatly increased.
If substrate is exposed, it must be treated to prevent rust from forming. Sand the exposed area lightly and paint with a high quality metal primer, specifically intended for
galvanized surfaces, to protect the area from corrosion. Follow the drying time on primer can label before applying topcoat. The surface of the factory-applied finish, that is
being painted, must not be too smooth, or the paint will not adhere to it. It is advisable to test in an inconspicuous area, to evaluate adhesion. If poor adhesion is observed,
surface preparation for painting thefactory-applied finish, must be repeated until desired results are achieved. Again, care must be taken to not expose the substrate under
the paint.
Steel (Painting)
After surface has been properly prepared, it must be allowed to dry thoroughly, then coated immediately with a premium quality latex house paint. Follow paint label
directions explicitly. Oil base or solvent base paints are not recommended. Please note that if substrate is exposed and not properly primed, painting with latex paint may
cause accelerated rusting of the steel in the exposed area.
NOTES:
1. Repainting of finish painted steel doors cannot be warranted, as this condition is totally beyond the door manufacturer’s control.
2. Consult a professional coatings contractor if in doubt about any of the above directions.
3. Follow directions explicitly on the paint container labels for proper applications of coatings and disposal of containers. Pay particular
attention to acceptable weather and temperature conditions in which to paint.
Wood (Preparation and Painting)
These instructions apply to all Wood Doors produced and sold by Wayne-Dalton Corp. The exterior surfaces, as well as all edges must be properly painted and maintained if
satisfactory performance is to be achieved. The purpose for painting is to both protect and beautify the substrates. These requirements for finishing are intended to achieve
both functions for reasonable service life of wood doors. Wood doors must be completely finished prior to installation, to ensure that the interior and exterior surfaces, as well
as all edges of the doors are properly protected against moisture or other contaminants. Wood doors, in a non-finished condition, must not be transported or stored where the
wood surfaces can be exposed to moisture or other contaminants.
Wood (Surface Preparation)
All surfaces must be clean, free of dust and dirt and any other contamination.
Wood (Painting)
Using painter’s tape, tape off all metal surfaces. A premium quality latex house based finish paint is recommended for use over the factory latex based primer
Painting the wood surfaces with at least 2 coats of finish paint over the primer. Follow paint manufacture’s label directions completely for all coatings. Once finished, remove
painter’s tape and touch up where necessary.
Wood (Maintenance and Refinishing)
Yearly inspection of all the wood surfaces of the garage door(s) will reveal the extent of weathering and the need for refinishing. When the finish becomes eroded or thin,
clean and prime the areas of deterioration. Follow up with a complete refinishing of the door(s), according to the above directions, as well as the manufacturer’s label
directions. Protecting the door(s) from prolonged exposure to moisture and sunlight is vital in extending the service life of your garage door(s).

Lifetime Limited Warranty
Model 6100
Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Lifetime Limited Warranty, Wayne-Dalton Corp. (“Manufacturer”) warrants the steel sections of the door, which is described at the top of this page, for as long as you own the door against:
(i) The door becoming inoperable due to rust-through of the steel skin from the core of the door section, due to cracking, splitting, or
other deterioration of the steel skin, or due to structural failure caused by separation or degradation of the foam insulation.
(ii) Peeling of the original paint on the door as a result of a defect in the original paint or in the application of the original paint
coating, in cases where the door sections and the original paint: (a) have not been subjected to adverse atmospheric conditions
or contaminates (such as salt water or other marine environment, or to toxic or abrasive substances, including those in the air);
(b) have been maintained in compliance with Manufacturer’s recommendations; and (c) have not been subject to physical abrasion,
impacted by a hard object, or punctured (including without limitation “paint rub” occurring in metal to metal contact and movement).
The Manufacturer warrants the factory applied wood overlay of the above-described door, against defects in material and workmanship for a
period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of installation, provided all exterior surfaces and edges of the wood overlay are properly painted according to
Wayne-Dalton Corp.’s Maintenance and Painting Instructions found in your Installations Instructions and Owner’s Manual. Bowing, checking and/ or cracking of the door overlay components is not considered a defect, but is an uncontrollable characteristic of wood.
The Manufacturer warrants the garage door hardware (except springs) and the tracks of the above-described door, for as long as you own the
door, against defects in material and workmanship, subject to all the terms and conditions below.
The Manufacturer warrants those component parts of the door not covered by the preceding provisions of this Lifetime Limited Warranty
against defects in material and workmanship for a period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of installation.
The Manufacturer warrants the factory-applied finish and the factory attached Decatrim against fading and cosmetic changes from the time
of installation for TWO (2) YEARS. If the sectional steel portion of door is re-stained or re-painted, the TWO (2) YEARS warranty for the factory-applied
finish is void. The Model 6100 factory attached Decatrim is warranted against warping, peeling, chalking, or delamination from the time of installation for
TWO (2) YEARS.
After a period of TWENTY (20) YEARS, from time of installation, replacement of Lifetime Limited Warranty materials will be pro-rated at 50 per
cent of Manufacturer’s published list pricing at time of claim, and you must pay this amount.
This Limited Warranty is extended only to the person who purchased the product and continues to own the premises (where the door is
installed) as his/her primary residence (“Buyer”). This Limited Warranty does not apply to residences other than primary, or to commercial or industrial
installations, or to installations on rental property (even when used by a tenant as a residence). This Limited Warranty is not transferable to any other
person (even when the premises is sold), nor does it extend benefits to any other person. As a result this Limited Warranty does NOT apply to any person
who purchases the product from someone other than an authorized Wayne-Dalton dealer or distributor.
The Manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage attributable to improper storage, improper installation, or any alteration of the door or
its components, abuse, damage from corrosive fumes or substances, salt spray or saltwater air, fire, Acts of God, failure to properly maintain the door, or
attempt to use the door, its components or related products for other than its intended purpose and its customary usage. This Limited Warranty does not
cover ordinary wear. This Limited Warranty will be voided if the original finish is painted over, unless Manufacturer’s preparation and painting instructions
are followed explicitly. This Limited Warranty will be voided if any holes are drilled into the door, other than those specified by the Manufacturer.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS A CONSUMER PRODUCT AS DEFINED BY THE MAGNUSON-MOSS ACT. NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) WILL EXTEND BEYOND THE
TIME PERIOD SET FORTH IN UNDERSCORED BOLD FACE TYPE IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, ABOVE.

Any claim under this Limited Warranty must be made in writing, within the applicable warranty period, to the dealer from which the product
was purchased. Unless the dealer is no longer in business, a written claim to the Manufacturer will be the same as if no claim had been made at all.
At the Manufacturer’s option, a service representative may inspect the product on site, or Buyer may be required to return the product to the
Manufacturer at Buyer’s expense. Buyer agrees to cooperate with any representative of the Manufacturer and to give such representative full access to
the product with the claimed defect and full access to the location of its installation.
If the Manufacturer determines that the claim is valid under the terms of this Limited Warranty, the Manufacturer will repair or replace the
defective product. The decision about the manner in which the defect will be remedied will be at the discretion of the Manufacturer, subject to applicable
law. THE REMEDY WILL COVER ONLY MATERIAL. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER OTHER CHARGES, SUCH AS FIELD SERVICE LABOR FOR
REMOVAL, INSTALLATION, PAINTING, SHIPPING, ETC.
Any repairs or replacements arranged by Manufacturer will be covered by (and subject to) the terms, conditions, limitations and exceptions of
this Limited Warranty; provided, however, that the installation date for the repaired or replaced product will be deemed to be the date the original product
was installed, and this Limited Warranty will expire at the same time as if there had been no defect. If a claim under this Limited Warranty is resolved in a
manner other than described in the immediately preceding paragraph, then neither this Limited Warranty nor any other warranty from the Manufacturer
will cover the repaired or replaced portion of the product.
THE REMEDIES FOR THE BUYER DESCRIBED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE EXCLUSIVE and take the place of any other remedy. The liability
of the Manufacturer, whether in contract or tort, under warranty, product liability, or otherwise, will not go beyond the Manufacturer’s obligation to repair or
replace, at its option, as described above. THE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, including (but not limited to) damage or loss of other property or equipment, personal injury, loss of profits or revenues, business
or service interruptions, cost of capital , cost of purchase or replacement of other goods, or claims of third parties for any of the foregoing.

may not apply to you.
No employee, distributor, dealer, representative, or other person has the authority to modify any term or condition contained in this Limited Warranty or to grant any other warranty on behalf of or binding on the Manufacturer, and anyone’s attempt to do so will be null and void.
Buyer should be prepared to verify the date of installation to the satisfaction of the Manufacturer.
The rights and obligations of the Manufacturer and Buyer under this Limited Warranty will be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, USA, to
the extent permitted by law.
