Preparing Your Door

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

• Disable locks.
• Remove any ropes connected to the
door.
Complete the following test to make sure
the door is balanced and is not sticking or
binding:
1. Lift the door halfway up. Release
the door. If balanced, it should stay
in place, supported entirely by its
springs.
2. Raise and lower the door to check for
binding or sticking.
3. Doors heavier than 650 lbs. should
NOT open or fall rapidly.
If your door binds, sticks, or is out of
balance, call a trained door systems
technician.
