The installation of a Trac-Rite 944 Roll-Up Door requires the use of proper tools and instructions. It is crucial to inspect the guides, curtain, doors for wear and damage, loose fasteners, anchor bolts, damaged or missing parts, and if equipped with a chain hoist mechanism, for missing parts.
To adjust door tension, follow these steps: Measure door opening width, find the center, place a mark on the floor, measure over 1/2 Ordered Door Width + 4 1/2″ (+ 1/16″ (1.5), -0″), and use a good quality silicon lubricant. Open the door by hand, wipe down the dust, and replace the spring by removing the door stops, keepers, and exterior handle. If both springs are broken, continue to do so.
To adjust door spring tension, first remove the door stops, keepers, and exterior handle. Open the door but do not allow it to come out of the guides. The door will coil into a roll above the opening when in the raised, open position. Measure to ensure there is enough clearance above the door for the coil per the chart.
In summary, the installation of a Trac-Rite 944 Roll-Up Door requires the use of proper tools and instructions. It is essential to ensure the door is in the “UP” position and that there is sufficient clearance for the coil.
