DOOR INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
Before installing your door, be certain that you have read and followed all of the instruc-
tions covered in the pre-installation section of this manual. Failure to do so may result in an
improperly installed door.
NOTE: Reference TDS 160 for general garage door terminology at www.dasma.com.
IMPORTANT: IF THE DOOR WILL BE EXPOSED TO A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF ROAD SALT,
PAINT THE BARE GALVANIZED BOTTOM WEATHER STEEL RETAINER TO INHIBIT RUSTING.
Attaching Flag Angles and Jamb Brackets To
Vertical Tracks

NOTE: If you have Riveted Track or Angle Mount Track, skip this step.
FOR DOORS WITH FULLY ADJUSTABLE TRACK: Hand tighten the left hand flag angle to
the left hand vertical track using (2) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolts and (2) 1/4” - 20 flange
hex nuts.
NOTE: The bottom jamb bracket is always the shortest bracket, while the center jamb
bracket is the next tallest. If three jamb brackets per side are included with your door, you will
have received a top jamb bracket, which is the tallest.
To attach the bottom jamb bracket, locate lower hole of the hole/ slot pattern of the 1st hole
set on the vertical track. Align the slot in the jamb bracket with the lower hole of the hole/ slot
pattern. Hand tighten jamb bracket using (1) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4” – 20
flange hex nut.
Place the center jamb bracket over the lower hole of the hole/ slot pattern that is centered
between the bottom jamb bracket and flag angle of the 2nd hole set. Hand tighten jamb
bracket using (1) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4” - 20 flange hex nut.
If a top jamb bracket was included, hand tighten it to vertical track using the lower hole of the
hole/ slot pattern in the 3rd hole set and (1) 1/4” - 20 x 9/16” track bolt and (1) 1/4” - 20
flange hex nut.
