Fiberglass, aluminum or lightweight steel garage doors WILL REQUIRE reinforcement 
BEFORE installation of door bracket. Contact your door manufacturer for reinforcement kit.

Figure 1 shows one piece of angle iron as the horizontal brace. 
For the vertical brace, 2 pieces of angle iron are used to create a 
U-shaped support. The best solution is to check with your garage 
door manufacturer for an opener installation door reinforcement kit.
NOTE: Many door reinforcement kits provide for direct attachment 
of the clevis pin and door arm. In this case you will not need the 
door bracket; proceed to the next step.
HARDWARE
A horizontal and vertical reinforcement 
is needed for lightweight garage doors 
(fi berglass, aluminum, steel, doors with 
glass panel, etc.) (not provided).
A horizontal reinforcement brace should be 
long enough to be secured to two or three 
vertical supports. A vertical reinforcement 
brace should cover the height of the top 
panel.

Center the door bracket on the previously marked vertical centerline used for the 
header bracket installation. Note correct UP placement, as stamped inside the 
bracket.
8.2A  
Position the top edge of the bracket 2"-4" (5-10 cm) below the top edge of the door, 
OR directly below any structural support across the top of the door.
8.3A
  Mark, drill holes and install as follows, depending on your door’s construction:
 
 Metal or light weight doors using a vertical angle iron brace between the door 
panel support and the door bracket: 
 
•   Drill 3/16" fastening holes. Secure the door bracket using the two self-threading 
screws (H16). (Figure 2)
 
•  Alternately, use two 5/16" bolts, lock washers and nuts (not provided). (Figure 3)
 
Metal, insulated or light weight factory reinforced doors: 
 
•   Drill 3/16" fastening holes. Secure the door bracket using the self-threading 
screws (H16). (Figure 4)
 Wood 
Doors:
 
•   Use top and bottom or side to side door bracket holes. Drill 5/16" holes through 
the door and secure bracket with 5/16"x2" carriage bolts, lock washers and nuts 
(not provided). (Figure 5) 
 
 NOTE: The 1/4"-14x5/8" self-threading screws are not intended for use on wood 
doors.
