How To Install A Clopay Garage Door
Installing a Clopay garage door enhances your home's curb appeal and functionality. To begin, gather essential tools: a socket wrench set, drill, screwdrivers, measuring tape, level, and safety gear. First, prepare your workspace by clearing the area and ensuring the garage opening is level. If replacing an old door, disconnect the opener, remove the door panels, tracks, and springs safely.
Next, install weatherstripping and bottom brackets on the new door. Assemble the tracks by attaching vertical and horizontal components, ensuring they’re level and secure. Install the door panels, starting from the bottom, aligning and attaching them with hinges.
Then, carefully install the springs—torsion or extension—following safety instructions. Attach lift cables to facilitate door movement. Optionally, install a garage door opener, aligning it properly. Finally, test the door's operation, making adjustments as necessary. With safety as a priority, you’ll have a reliable and visually appealing garage door.
