Avoid operating doors in a manner that applies sudden force against
the panel catches. For example, operating doors in an aggressive
manner that results in a panel slamming against a panel stop.
PANEL INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)

Panel Catch Installation
NOTE: The panel catch will be mounted on the interior surface of the
door panels. The catch serves to prevent the handle from making contact
with other panels and/or serves to assist to collect all panels as the door
unit is opened. There will be one less panel catch than the total number
of panels.
1. With the door panels installed and adjusted locate the position of
the panel catch on the active door panel (panel with the door handle).
2. Measure down 2" from the
head of the panel and then
over 4 5/16". Make a mark
at this location.
3. Pre-drill an installation hole for
a #8 screw.
7. Apply caps to cover screw
heads.
8. Repeat process for remaining
catches. Only one catch will be
installed in any given panel.

4. Place and align the panel catch
so the rst hole of the catch is
centered over the pre-drilled
hole. Apply the provided #8
x 3/4" at head screw and
tighten until snug.
5. Make sure the panel catch is
level and pre-drill through the
remaining hole.
6. Apply the last screw and
tighten until snug.
Pocket Bumper Installation
NOTE: The pocket bumpers serve to stop the panels from hitting the
exterior of the building and/or running off an open-ended track. There
will be one less panel bumper than total numbers of panels. The screws
used to secure the bumpers should penetrate the structural framing
a minimum of 1", which might require a longer screw than provided.
1. The pocket bumpers should be secured to the head track near the
back of the pocket. The bumpers will be applied in a staggered
fashion. The screws used to secure the bumper should penetrate the
structural framing of the building by a minimum of 1".
2. Start by placing the rst bumper into the channel that is exterior of
the trailing panel track.
3. Pre-drill and secure the bumper with the provided #8 x 1 3/8" screw
(or longer if needed to achieve the 1" embedment).
4. Refer to the drawing for proper spacing and continue mounting the
needed number of bumpers in the same manner.
