If you just removed your existing door or you are installing
a new door, complete all steps in PREPaRING ThE
OPENING.
To ensure secure mounting of track brackets, side and
center bearing brackets, or steel angles to new or retro-fit
construction, it is recommended to follow the procedures
outlined in DasMa Technical Data sheets #156, #161 and
#164 at www.dasma.com.
The inside perimeter of your garage door opening
should be framed with wood jamb and header material.
The jambs and header must be securely fastened to
sound framing members. It is recommended that 2” x
6” lumber be used. The jambs must be plumb and the
header level. The jambs should extend a minimum of
14” (356 mm) above the top of the opening for Torsion
spring applications. For low headroom applications, the
jambs should extend to the ceiling height. Minimum side
clearance required, from the opening to the wall, is 3-1/2”
(89 mm).

For Torsion spring applications, a suitable mounting
surface must be firmly attached to the wall, above the
header at the center of the opening. The mounting surface
must be 2” x 6” lumber minimum (select southern yellow
pine lumber. Do not use lumber marked as spruce-pine-
fur or sPF). The mounting surface must be securely
attached to the wall with four (4) 3/8” anchors for
masonry constructions or four (4) 5/16” x 4” lag screws
for wood construction.
NOTE: Drill a 3/16” pilot hole in the mounting surface to
avoid splitting the lumber. Do not attach the mounting
surface with nails.
Weather seal (may not be included) / Door stop:
Cut the weather seal or door stop (if necessary) to fit
header and jambs.
for quick install track: align the header seal with the
inside edge of the header and temporarily secure it to the
header with equally spaced nails. Next, fit the jamb seals
up tight against the header seal and flush with the inside
edge of the jamb. Temporarily secure the jamb seals with
equally spaced nails approximately 12” to 18” apart.
This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the
opening during installation.
for fully adjustable track: align the header seal 1/8” to
1/4” inside the header and temporarily secure it to the
header with equally spaced nails. Next, fit the jamb seals
up tight against the header seal and 1/8” to 1/4” inside
the jamb. Temporarily secure the jamb seals with equally
spaced nails approximately 12” to 18” apart. This will
keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening
during installation.
NOTE: Do not permanently attach weather seal or door
stop to the jamb at this time.
hEADROOM REqUIREMENT: headroom is defined as
the space needed above the top of the door for tracks,
springs, etc. to allow the door to open properly. If the door
is to be motor operated, 2-1/2” (64 mm) of additional
headroom is required.
BACkROOM REqUIREMENT: backroom is defined as the
distance needed from the opening back into the garage to
allow the door to open fully.
