Before installation
Please ensure:

· The door is less than 36” wide (approx. 0.91m)
· The clearance between the door (top edge) and door jamb is at least 1/16” (approx. 1.5mm). If the
clearance is less than 1/16", you may use a bench chisel to chop part of the door jamb where the slider
bracket is mounted, so the clearance of this portion is more than 1/16".
· An electrical outlet is within 15ft (approx. 4.5m) from the door opener. If there is no electrical outlet nearby,
you may use an AC extension cord.
· Spring hinge closer may affect the operation of the swing door opener. If possible, adjust the spring
hinge so that the torsion is released, or replace the spring hinge to a regular hinge.
· Door closer should not be installed.
· The door opens / closes smoothly. If the door doesn’t open smoothly, lubrication may be needed on the
door hinges.
· When the door is in the fully opened position,
ensure there is enough space to mount the door
opener. It requires at least 3-1/2" (Approx. 85mm)
between the back of the door to the wall.
· Door stopper should be installed in order to limit
the door opening to max.100 degrees.
· If weather stripping is too thick or hard, it may
affect the operation of the door opener. Replace
the weather stripping with something thinner and
softer so the door can close properly.
