SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATION

Planning

Identify the type and height of your garage door. Survey
your garage area to see if any of the conditions below
apply to your installation. Additional materials may be
required. You may find it helpful to refer back to this page
and the accompanying illustrations as you proceed with
the installation of your opener.

Without a properly working safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a closing garage door.
• The gap between the bottom of the garage door and the floor

MUST NOT exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, the safety
reversal system may not work properly.

• The floor or the garage door MUST be repaired to eliminate

the gap.
