- Packet with pre-assembled sections

- Packet with the tracks, springs and shafts.

- Box with the hardware fittings

2.1 Tools required

The tools needed to assembly the door are

not supplied by NORPA.

- Drill

- Bits

- Socket spanner set

- Set of Allen keys

- Different types of screwdrivers

(slotted and Philips)

- Hacksaw

- Different types of pliers

- Vice grips

- Ladder or scaffolding

- Level and water hose level

- Tape measure

All necessary personal protection items

should also be worn.

3. Checking the

measurements

It is essential to take each and every

measurement indicated in the diagram.

The door will be manufactured to

the measurements indicated on

the order, making it custom-built

to suit that particular doorway.

Warning!

Before installing the door, re-check all the

measurements. The precise levelling of the

vertical tracks is the most important step in

the installation process.

Any errors at this stage cannot be corrected

later, and will cause the door to malfunction.

4. Installation of the

vertical tracks

For correct levelling, on one side of the door

opening, use a tape measure to measure

one metre up from the finished floor or,

by default, from the exact height at which

the floor is to be finished.

Once the 1 metre mark has been made,

transfer this measurement to the other

MT10051002-GB /10-09-27

GB

RESIDENTIAL SECTIONAL GARAGE DOORS

x

side of the opening using a hose level.

Once transferred, the measurement of this

side of the opening should have a

minimum height of 1 m. If this is not so,

then measure a height of 1 m. for this side

and transfer to the other side, as explained

above.

The tracks can also be levelled using a laser

level.

4.1 Mounting the side

seals

The next step is to mount the side seals in

the vertical sections, ensuring that the

seals have been inserted perfectly.

4.2 Mounting the vertical

tracks

Make a 1 metre mark on the vertical tracks,

on the right and the left sides. When

mounting the tracks on the wall, you should

ensure that the marks made on the wall

coincide with those made on the tracks.

4.3 Centring the door,

width wise

Take the X measurement at either

side of the door opening.

Use vice grips to clamp the track

to the wall

Do the same on the other side.

Use a bricklayer's level to level the tracks in

all directions as indicated in the diagram.

Level in all

directions.

If required, use

a shim to level

the tracks.

If the tracks are not perpendicular to

the wall frame, shims should be

used to correct this.

WARNING!

All these levelling

steps are

exceedingly

important if the door

is to function

correctly.

the track to the wall, starting from

the bottom.

IMPORTANT!

Mount all items as indicated in the

diagram: Plug, washer, screw.

Fit screws in all the holes provided in

the track.

Do the same at the top of the track.

Then perform the same steps on

the track on the other side.

5. Installing the horizontal tracks

Warning!

The horizontal tracks must be supported until they are completely secured to the

ceiling, to prevent the tracks from falling and being damaged.

Warning!

The horizontal tracks must be

perfectly aligned and levelled in

order to guarantee perfect door

operation.

5.1 Mounting the

horizontal tracks

Screw the horizontal tracks to the

vertical tracks, using the holes

provided.
