INSTALLATION

HEADER AND DOOR
MOUNTING BRACKETS:
Header bracket must be fastened to garage
framing. Do NOT fasten to drywall, particle
board, plaster or other such materials.
1. Finding header bracket mounting location.
• Close garage door.
– Use a pencil and level.
a) Mark center of garage door (one-half overall
width) on the wall with 6" vertical line at top
edge of door.
b) Continue this line on wall above door for
about 12" (Fig. 2-1, a).
• Raise garage door until top edge of door
reaches its maximum height (Fig. 2-2).
• With door at highest point.
– Measure height from top edge of door to floor
(Fig. 2-2).
• Close door again.
• Mark height measurement on wall above door
(Fig. 2-1, c).
– Make your mark across vertical line made earlier.
• Add 2-1/2" to height mark just made on wall. This
is location for header bracket (Fig. 2-1, d).
Door springs are under high tension. If spring or
its shaft is in the way, measure 2-1/2" above
spring or shaft on the garage door centerline and
mark this height as your location for header
bracket.
Do NOT move door spring!
NOTE: If header bracket location needs to be
above header for garage door opening, you need
to add a "mounting surface." A 2" x 6" board
securely attached (board and fasteners not
included) to wall studs on either side of your mark
is sufficient (Fig. 2-3).
NOTE: For header bracket and bolts locate Bag 2
from Box 1.
NOTE: The bolts supplied in Bag 2 are designed
to be used on pressure treated lumber.
2. Mounting the header bracket.
• Hold header bracket against wall (Fig. 2-3).
• Position bracket as shown.
– Place center on vertical line,
– Bottom edge on final height line.
• Mark screw hole locations on wall.
• Drill 3/16" pilot holes at each screw hole mark.
– Fasten header bracket with 2 lag screws
(provided) (Fig. 2-3).
