Removing the Old Door
Step 1: Raise the door to the fully open
position and place vice clamps to the back
legs of both vertical tracks, below the
bottom rollers to prevent the door from
falling. By opening the door you release
most of the spring tension. Carefully
unfasten the S-hook from the horizontal
angle. Remove cable, sheave and extension
spring. Repeat for the other side. If safety
cables are running through the extension
springs, remove them also. Remove parts
from work area.
Step 2: Holding door in the open position,
remove the vice clamps, be prepared
to support the entire weight of the door.
Garage doors can weigh 200-400 pounds.
With assistance, carefully lower the door, by
grasping the door fi rmly by it’s lift handles.
Do not place fi ngers or hands near joints,
between sections, or between bottom of
door and fl oor. Otherwise, severe injury
could result.
