Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the top of the red handle so “NOTICE”
reads right side up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot at least 1 inch (2.5 cm)
from the end of the rope to prevent slipping.
Thread the other end of the rope through the loop in the emergency release cable.
Adjust rope length so the handle is no higher than 6 feet (1.83 m) above the fl oor.
Secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE: If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end with a match or lighter
to prevent unraveling.
The power door lock must be mounted
within 10 feet of garage door opener
with approximately a 3 inch (7.6 cm)
distance between the center of a door
roller and the hole for the power door
lock bolt. If possible, mount on same
side as garage door opener. The
second roller from the bottom is ideal
for most installations.
Ensure rail surface is clean and attach
lock template to track.
Drill holes as marked on the template.
Fasten power door lock to the outside
of the garage door track with hardware
provided.
Run bell wire up wall to garage door
opener. Use insulated staples to secure
wire in several places. Insert wire
through the bottom of the garage door
opener.
Plug the connector into the garage
door opener.
