• Close the door and mark the inside

vertical centerline of the garage door.

• Extend the line onto the header wall

above the door.

Remember, you can fasten the
header bracket within 2 feet to 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 (refer to page 9) when
clearance is minimal.

If you need to install the header bracket
on a 2x4 (on wall or ceiling), use lag
screws (not supplied) to securely fasten
the 2x4 to structural supports as shown
here.

Installation Step 1

Determine Header Bracket Location

If the header bracket is not rigidly fastened to
a structural support on the header wall or
ceiling, the safety reverse system may not
work properly (see page 23).

The door might

not reverse when required, and could cause
serious injury or death.
The garage door springs, cables, pulleys,
brackets and their hardware are under extreme
tension.

Do not attempt to loosen, move or

adjust them yourself. Serious personal injury
or death could result. Call for garage door
service.
