1. Alternate dimensions in brackets are in [millimeters].
2. Match control box serial number with track serial number.
3. Make sure that you are working at the correct location and
that you have any required work permits.
4. Inspect the site to make sure that there are no overhead
obstructions (sprinkler pipes, HVAC systems, electrical
supply lines, etc.) that might interfere with the installation.

Step 1
Measure Door Opening
Width at the top
Step 2
Measure Door Opening
Width at the floor
Step 3
Measure Door
Opening Height

Step 7
Using a 6’ [1829]
carpenter’s level, verify
that the door jambs and
header are plumb and
perpendicular.

Using a laser level, place a mark where the laser is sighted on
each side of the jamb to determine if the floor is level. Measure
both sides from floor to the mark and if the floor is not level to
within 1/8" [3], shim under the sideframe that will be located on
the “Low Side” (greatest measurement) of the door opening.
