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).
WALL HEADER BRACKET INSTALLATION
1. Center the bracket on the vertical centerline with the bottom 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.
CEILING HEADER BRACKET INSTALLATION
1. Extend the vertical centerline onto the ceiling as shown.
2. Center the bracket on the vertical mark, no more than 6" (15cm) from the
wall. Make sure the arrow is pointing away from the wall. The bracket
can be mounted flush against the ceiling when clearance is minimal.
3. Mark the side holes. Drill 3/16" pilot holes and fasten bracket securely to
a structural support with the hardware provided.
