Planning
Identify the type and height of your garage door. If you 
have a one-piece door, follow the assembly instructions 
contained in this manual and refer to the Installation 
Instructions One-Piece Door for installation procedures.
 
Survey your garage area to see if any of the conditions 
below apply to your installation. Additional materials may 
be required. You may fi nd it helpful to refer back to this 
page and the accompanying illustrations as you proceed 
with the installation of your opener.
Depending on your requirements, there are several 
installation steps which may call for materials or hardware 
not included in the carton.
•  
Installation Page 10 – Look at the wall or ceiling above 
the garage door. The header bracket must be securely 
fastened to structural supports.
•  
Installation Page 12 – Do you have a fi nished ceiling 
in your garage? If so, a support bracket and additional 
fastening hardware may be required.
•   Installation Page 13 – Do you have a steel, aluminum, 
fi berglass or glass panel door? If so, horizontal and 
vertical reinforce ment is required.
•   Installation Page 18 – Depending upon garage 
construction, extension brackets or wood blocks may 
be needed to install sensors.
•   Installation Page 18 – Alternate fl oor mounting of 
the safety reversing sensor will require hardware not 
provided.
•   Do you have an access door in addition to the garage 
door? If not, Model 7702CB Outside Quick Release is 
required. See Accessories page.
•   Look at the garage door where it meets the fl oor. Any 
gap between the fl oor and the bottom of the door must 
not exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, the safety reversal 
system may not work properly. See Adjustment Step 3. 
Floor or door should be repaired.
•   The opener should be installed above the center of the 
door. If there is a torsion spring or center bearing plate 
in the way of the header bracket, it may be installed 
within 4 feet (1.22 m) to the left or right of the door 
center. 
•   If your door is more than 7 feet (2.13 m) high, see rail 
extension kits listed on Accessories page 33.
Without a properly working safety reversal system, 
persons (particularly small children) could be 
SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage 
door.
•  The gap between the bottom of the garage door and 
the fl oor MUST NOT exceed 1/4" (6 mm). Otherwise, 
the safety reversal system may NOT work properly. 
•  The fl oor or the garage door MUST be repaired to 
eliminate the gap.
