Planning
Identify the type and height of your garage door. 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 Step 1 – Look at the wall or ceiling above 
the garage door. The header bracket must be securely 
fastened to structural supports.
•    Installation Step 5 – Do you have a fi nished ceiling in 
your garage? If so, a support bracket and additional 
fastening hardware may be required.
•   Installation Step 10 – Depending upon garage 
construction, extension brackets or wood blocks may 
be needed to install sensors.
•   Installation Step 10 – 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 Emergency Key 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.
SECTIONAL DOOR INSTALLATIONS
•   Do you have a steel, aluminum, fi berglass or glass 
panel door? If so, horizontal and vertical reinforce ment 
is required (Installation Step 11). 
•   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. See Installation Steps 1 and 11.
•   If your door is more than 7 feet (2.13 m) high, see rail 
extension kits listed on Accessories page.
