Preparing your Garage Door

Before you begin:
• Disable locks.
• Remove any ropes connected to garage door.
• Complete the following test to make sure your garage
door is balanced and is not sticking or binding:
1. Lift the door about halfway as shown. Release the
door. If balanced, it should stay in place, supported
entirely by its springs.
2. Raise and lower the door to see if there is any
binding or sticking.
If your door binds, sticks or is out of balance, call a
trained door systems technician.
3. Verify equal cable tension on each side of door.
Cable tension should remain equal during the entire
travel of the door.
