Please read and comply with the warnings on page 10. They apply to the installation of the header
bracket regardless of door type.
• Close the door and mark the
inside vertical centerline of
your garage door. Extend the
line onto the header wall
above door.
If headroom clearance is
minimal, you can install the
header bracket on the ceiling.
See page 12.
• If you need to install the
header bracket on a 25mm
board (on wall or ceiling), use
lag screws (not supplied) to
securely fasten the 25mm to
structural supports as shown.

• Open your door to the highest point of travel as
shown. Measure the distance from the top of the
door to the floor. Subtract the actual height of the
door. Add 20cm to the remainder. (See Example).
• Close the door and draw an intersecting horizontal
line on the header wall at the determined height.
If the total number of centimeters exceeds the
height available in your garage, use the
maximum height possible, or refer to page 12 for
ceiling installation.
Proceed to Step 2, page 12.
