INSTALLATION STEP 2
INSTALL THE HEADER BRACKET
You can attach the header bracket either to the wall above the garage
door, or to the ceiling. Follow the instructions which will work best for
your particular requirements. Do not install the header bracket over
drywall. If installing into masonry, use concrete anchors (not
provided).

edge of the bracket on the horizontal line as shown (with the
arrow pointing toward the ceiling).
2. Mark the vertical set of bracket holes. Drill 3/16" pilot holes
and fasten the bracket securely to a structural support with the
hardware provided.
