brackets to jambs.
If the two jB-uS jamb brackets which were previously attached to the vertical track in step,
Attaching jB-uS jamb brackets, are not even with the middle of a section or an end-hinge/
roller location, unfasten them from their current location and move them to a proper location
along the middle of a section or an end-hinge/ roller location.
