LOWER TRACK INSTALLATION
1. Measure the door opening width and place a mark at the
center on the floor, Figures 1, 3, 3A, 3B & 3C. From the
centerline, measure 1/2 O.D.W. + 1/4” [+ 1/8"/-0] for
FasTrax and 1/2 O.D.W. + 4 1/2” [+ 1/8"/-0] for FasTrax
FR and place a mark on each side.
2. Position the front edge of the high side track on the line.
Using a 6’ level, make sure that the track is plumb in both
directions. Use shims as required to square the track.
3. Using the predrilled holes in the track as a guide, drill
holes for the mounting fasteners, Figure 5. If the hole
goes completely through the wall, use thru-bolts and
backing plates to secure the track to the wall, Figure 4.
4. Repeat process for opposite track.
5. Measure tracks at top and bottom to verify proper width.
6. For High, Vertical Lift or special configuration doors,
fasten the proper radius to the top of the lower track,
Figure 6, Page 9. DO NOT fully tighten at this point, as it
needs to be loose to install upper track.
7. For Radial doors, the spiral raceway is pre-attached to the
track, Figure 7.
8. For optional weld plates, refer to, Figure 42, Page 21.
