TDC Trolley Installation
Install the Header Bracket
The trolley operator is generally mounted over the center of the door.
However, off center mounting may be required due to interfering structures
or location of the door stile / top section support. Typically, the operator
may be mounted up to 24 inches (60.1 cm) off center on torsion spring
doors. Extension springs require center mounting.
1.
Close the door. Mark the center of the door with a vertical line, extend
the line onto the ceiling.
2.
Open the door to the highest point of travel mark 4 inches (10.1 cm)
above the highest point of travel.
3.
Center the header bracket on the vertical center line and the
horizontal line.
4.
Drill the pilot holes for the header bracket.
5.
Fasten the header bracket with appropriate hardware (not provided).
