IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICES
Read the enclosed instructions carefully before attempting installation. If there are any
questions about any of the procedures, do not perform the work. Instead, have a qualified
door agency do the installation or repairs.
1. Operate the door ONLY when it is properly adjusted and free of all obstructions.
2. The door is constantly under EXTREME SPRING TENSION. Repairs, adjustments, installation and
removal, ESPECIALLY of SPRINGS AND RELATED PARTS, are dangerous so that such work should
be performed ONLY by qualified door service people.
3. DO NOT PERMIT children to play with the door. Children could get caught between the door and the
floor causing severe injury or death.
4. Avoid standing in the open doorway or walking through the doorway while the door is moving. One could
get caught between the door and the floor causing severe injury or death.
5. Should the door become hard to operate or completely inoperative, it is recommended that a qualified door
agency correct the problem to prevent possible injuries or door damage.
6. Avoid installing the door on windy days. The door could fall causing door damage or injury.
7. To prevent injuries due to loose components, at least monthly check all bolted connections to make sure they
are secure.
8. To prevent injuries, never place hands or fingers between the curtain and the guides while the door is being
operated.

agency if this is required, before new doors are to be installed.
10. Thoroughly familiarize yourself with the construction codes in your region before initiating work.
11. Wear the proper protective safety gear at all times when installing, adjusting, and/or repairing doors.
12. Consider using a 2-person (or larger) crew for installing, adjusting and/or repairing larger doors.
13. To prevent injury or death due to falling, use scaffolding or mechanical lifts, rather than ladders, when
installing, adjusting, and/or repairing larger doors.
