Door Section Identification
NOTE: Center hinge(s) use #1 graduated end hinges at each pre-drilled or vertical stile location.
The pre-drilled locations are located at the top and or bottom rails on the inside of the section
surface.
When installing your door, you must use sections of the appropriate height in the right stacking
location. Determine, what sections you need to use in what order depends on the design of your
door.
NOTE: Some doors will receive half center hinge(s). These will be installed in between the center
hinge(s) and graduated end hinge(s).
Sections are stamped for identification, #1, #2, #3, and #4 (#4 only on four section high doors).
The stamp, located on each side of the sections identifies the stacking sequence. The sequence
is always determined by #1 being the bottom section to #4 or #5 being the highest top section.
If the stamp on the section is illegible, refer to the section side view illustration. The section side
view illustration shows the section profile of all sections, and can also be used to identify each
STRuT IDENTIFICATION:
Identify your struts to determine which ones are long strut(s) or short strut(s).
Short Strut(s) are typically installed along the top rail of the top section and or along the bottom

from Wayne-Dalton, A Division Of Overhead Door Corporation, P.O. Box 67, Mt. Hope, OH.,
Long Strut(s) are typically installed along the top and or bottom rails of sections. Measure the
height of the long strut(s) to determine if you have 2” or 3”.
NOTE: Some struts also may or may not have holes in them. If they don’t, then prior to installing
the strut and hinge to the section surface, you may have to drill a 3/16” hole for the appropriate
fastener on one or both sides of the strut legs.

The inside perimeter of your garage door opening should be framed with wood jamb and header
material. The jambs and header must be securely fastened to sound framing members. It is
recommended that 2” x 6” lumber be used. The jambs must be plumb and the header level.
The jambs should extend a minimum of 12” (305 mm) above the top of the opening for Torsion
counterbalance systems. For low headroom applications, the jambs should extend to the ceiling
height. Minimum side clearance required, from the opening to the wall, is 3-1/2” (89 mm), for
2” track. Minimum side clearance required, from the opening to the wall, is 4-1/2” (114 mm),

For the header, align the weatherstrip 1/8” to 1/4” inside the header edge, and temporarily
secure it to the header with equally spaced nails. Starting at either side of the jamb, fit the
weatherstrip up tight against the temporarily attached weatherstrip in the header and 1/8”
to 1/4” inside the jamb edge. Temporarily secure the weatherstrip with equally spaced nails.
Repeat for other side. This will keep the bottom section from falling out of the opening during

Carefully remove winding rod from winding cone. Repeat for the opposite spring. While
holding the door down to prevent it from raising unexpectedly in the event the spring(s) were
over-wound, carefully remove the locking pliers from the torsion shaft and vertical tracks.
Adjustments to the number of turns stated may be necessary. If door rises off floor under
spring tension alone, reduce spring tension until door rests on the floor. If the door is hard to
rise or drifts down on its own, add spring tension.
Now, lift door and check its balance. Adjustments to the required number of spring turns
stated may be necessary. If door rises off floor under spring tension alone, reduce spring
tension until door rests on the floor. If the door is hard to rise or drifts down on its own, add
spring tension. A poorly balanced door can cause garage door operator operation problems.
NOTE: An unbalanced door such as this can cause garage door opener operation problems.
To adjust spring tension, fully close door. Apply vice grips to track above third track roller.
Insert a winding rod into the winding cone. On single spring doors, counterbalance lift

Maintenance
Before you begin, read all warning labels affixed to the door and the installation instructions and
owner’s manual. When correctly installed, your Wayne-Dalton door will operate smoothly. Always
operate your door with controlled movements. Do not slam your door or throw your door into the
open position, this may cause damage to the door or its components. If your door has an electric
opener, refer to the owner’s manual to disconnect the opener before performing manual door
operation below.
Cleaning Your Garage Door
IMPORTANT: DO NOT uSE A PRESSuRE WASHER ON YOuR GARAGE DOOR!
An annual inspection of all the surfaces of your garage door(s) will reveal the extent of weather-
ing and the possible need for refinishing. When the finish becomes eroded or thin, clean and
prime any areas showing deterioration. Then completely refinish the door, according to the
directions, listed below, or the manufacturer’s label directions. Proper finishing of the wood
substrates to protect your door(s) from the effects of moisture and sunlight is vital in extending
the service life and beautifying your garage door(s).
Manual door operation:
reference TDS 165.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT PLACE FINGERS OR HANDS INTO SECTION JOINTS WHEN OPENING
AND/OR CLOSING A DOOR. ALWAYS uSE LIFT HANDLES / SuITABLE GRIPPING POINTS WHEN
OPERATING THE DOOR MANuALLY.
The interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges must be properly primed, painted and
maintained, to protect and beautify your door. These finishing instructions are intended to
achieve both objectives for your wood doors(s).
Opening a Door: Make sure the lock(s) are in the unlocked position. Lift the door by using the lift
handles / suitable gripping points only. Door should open with little resistance.
NOTE: Be sure to clean behind weatherstrips on both sides and top of door.
CAuTION: NEVER MIx CLEANSERS OR DETERGENTS WITH BLEACH.
GLASS CLEANING INSTRuCTIONS
Closing a Door: From inside the garage, pull door downward using lift handles / gripping point
only or a high friction area only. If you are unable to reach the lift handles/ suitable gripping
points only, use pull down rope affixed to the side of door. Door should close completely with
little resistance.
Clean with a mild detergent solution (same as above) and a soft cloth. After cleaning, rinse
thoroughly.
using an electric operator:
IMPORTANT: PuLL DOWN ROPES MuST BE REMOVED AND LOCKS MuST BE REMOVED OR
MADE INOPERATIVE IN THE uNLOCKED POSITION.
ACRyLIC CLEANING INSTRuCTIONS
Clean acrylic glazing with nonabrasive soap or detergent and plenty of water. use your bare
hands to feel and dislodge any caked on particles. A soft, grit-free cloth, sponge or chamois may
be used to wipe the surface. Do not use hard or rough cloths that will scratch the acrylic glazing.
Dry glazing with a clean damp chamois.
When connecting a drawbar (trolley type) garage door operator to this door, an drawbar opera-
tor and or drawbar operator bracket must be securely attached to the top section of the door,
along with any struts provided with the door. Always use the drawbar operator and or drawbar
operator bracket supplied with the door. To avoid possible damage to your door, Wayne-Dalton
recommends reinforcing the top section on models 8000, 8100, 8200 and 9100 doors with a
strut (may or may not be supplied). The installation of the drawbar operator must be according
to manufacturer’s instructions and force settings must be adjusted properly. Refer to the owner’s
manual supplied with your drawbar operator for complete details on installation, operation,
maintenance and testing of the operator.
NOTE: Do not use any window cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty cloths or solvent-
based cleaners of any kind.
Clean all surfaces of dust, dirt and any other contaminants. Any scarring or stains that occur
during transportation, handling or storage must be re-sanded to the original condition.
MAINTAINING yOuR GARAGE DOOR:
Painting Your Garage Door
Before you begin, read all warning labels affixed to the door and the installation instructions
and owner’s manual. Perform routine maintenance steps once a month, and have the door
professionally inspected once a year. Review your Installation Instructions and Owner’s Manual
for the garage door. These instructions are available at no charge from Wayne-Dalton, A Division
and reference TDS 151, 167 and 179.
A high quality exterior 100% Acrylic Latex based finish paint is recommended for painting your
wood door. FOR BEST RESuLTS DO NOT uSE A DARK COLOR PAINT. HIGH HEAT ABSORPTION
CAN CAuSE ExCESSIVE BOWING AND CRACKING OF THE WOOD. If priming is necessary, prime
the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges, using a primer compatible with the
selected finish paint and for the specific species of wood substrate being finished.
Monthly Inspections:
NOTE: Some species of wood, such as cedar, require special primers and finishes to prevent
tannin stains from appearing. Consult with your paint supplier.
1. visual Inspection: Closely inspect jambs, header and mounting surface. Any wood found not
to be structurally sound must be replaced. Inspect the springs, counterbalance lift cables, track
rollers, pulleys, rear back hangs and other door hardware for signs of worn or broken parts.
Tighten any loose screws and/or bolts. Check exterior surface of the door sections for any minor
cracks. Verify door has not shifted right or left in the opening. If you suspect problems, have a
trained door system technician make the repairs.
If the door is factory primed by Wayne-Dalton, the priming step is not required, except if touch-
up is needed due to surface preparation and re-sanding.
NOTE: Wayne-Dalton uses a latex primer.
Finish paint the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges with at least 2 coats of a high
quality exterior 100% Acrylic Latex finish paint over the primer. Follow paint manufacture’s label
directions explicitly for all coatings.
WARNING
IMPORTANT: THE FOLLOWING TOP COATS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED. SHAKE AND SHINGLE
PAINTS, CLEAR COATINGS, OIL OR ALKYD PAINTS, VINYL ACETATE (PVA), VINYL ACRYLIC OR
VINYL ACETATE ACRYLIC CO-POLYMER PAINTS.
GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS, COuNTERBALANCE LIFT CABLES, BRACkETS, AND
OTHER HARDWARE ATTACHED TO THE SPRINGS ARE uNDER ExTREME TEN-

CAREFuLLy FOLLOWING THE MANuFACTuRER’S INSTRuCTIONS.
Clear Or Stained Finishes
WARNING
If staining, select an exterior grade stain, approved for use on the species of wood substrates
being finished and compatible with Alkyd varnishes. FOR BEST RESuLTS DO NOT uSE A DARK
STAIN. HIGH HEAT ABSORPTION CAN CAuSE ExCESSIVE BOWING AND CRACKING OF THE
WOOD. Apply the stain to the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges, following stain
manufacturer’s label directions. After proper drying time for the stain, or if wood is being left
natural, apply 1 coat of waterproof exterior Alkyd varnish (marine type varnish) to the interior
and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges. After recommended drying time of 1st coat, sand all
surfaces with fine grit (320) sandpaper. Clean all surfaces of sanding dust and apply a 2nd coat
of the Alkyd varnish to the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges. After 2nd coat is
dry, sand all surfaces again with fine grit (320) sandpaper. Clean all surfaces of sanding dust
and apply a final 3rd coat of the Alkyd varnish to all surfaces.

TorqueMaster® Plus Springs: Pawl knob(s) (located on the TorqueMaster® end brackets above
the door) should be engaged to prevent the door from rapidly descending in case of spring
failure or forceful manual operation.
Three finish coats of waterproof exterior Alkyd varnish are required to properly finish a stained
or natural wood door. Follow the finish manufacturer’s label directions explicitly for each coat
applied.
Torsion Springs: The torsion springs (located above the door) should only be adjusted by a
trained door systems technician. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust torsion springs yourself.
NOTE: Do not stain MDO plywood, apply paint only.
Extension Springs: A restraining cable or other device should be installed on the extension spring
(located above the horizontal tracks) to help contain the spring if it breaks.
Only a waterproof exterior Alkyd varnish top coat finish is approved for stained or natural wood
doors. Other types of top coat finishes, including deck sealers, are not acceptable and if used,
will void the warranty.
2. Door Balance: Periodically test the balance of your door. If you have a garage door drawbar
operator, use the release mechanism so you can operate the door by hand when doing this
test. Start with the door in the fully closed position. Lift the door to check its balance. Adjust
TorqueMaster® or Extension spring(s), if door lifts by itself (hard to pull down) or if door is difficult
to lift (easy to pull down). DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust Torsion Springs yourself. To adjust
TorqueMaster® or Extension spring(s), refer to your installation instructions and owner’s manual.
If in question about any of the procedures, do not perform the work. Instead, have it adjusted by
a trained door systems technician.

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Limited Warranty, Wayne-Dalton (“Manufacturer”) warrants the sections of the door, against defects in
material and workmanship, for a period of ONE (1) yEAR from the time of delivery provided:
i) (i) The interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges of the wood door(s) are properly finished according to the Manufactures Maintenance and Painting
Instructions and finish manufacturer’s instructions. All surfaces of the wood door(s) must be completely finished (3 total coats, including primer coat) prior to
installation, to ensure that the interior and exterior surfaces, as well as all edges of the doors are properly protected against moisture or other contaminants.
Wood doors, in a non-finished condition, must be transported and stored so the wood surfaces are NOT exposed to moisture or other contaminants. If the door(s)
is not finished within TEN (10) DAyS of delivery, this warranty shall only extend to defects in workmanship and materials that appear within ONE (1) MONTH.
IMPROPER TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE OR DELAYS IN FINISHING, THAT ALLOWS EXPOSURE OF THE WOOD DOOR SURFACES TO MOISTURE OR OTHER CON-
TAMINANTS WILL RESULT IN THE WARRANTY BEING VOIDED.
The Manufacturer warrants the garage door hardware, tracks and springs of the above-described door, for a period of ONE (1) yEAR from the date of installa-
tion, against defects in material and workmanship, subject to all the terms and conditions below.
The Manufacturer will not be responsible for grain and color variations of natural wood. These natural variations in grain and color are not product defects, and
therefore will not be considered under this Limited Warranty.
The Manufacturer uses high quality material for framework, door skins, overlays, and panel materials. Exposure of wood to the environment may cause bowing,
checking and/or cracking of a door section regardless of efficiency of painting. This is not considered a defect; it is an uncontrollable characteristic of natural wood. The
dealer and the end user have the responsibility to select the type of material and/ or door which will offer the best results and longevity for the climate and/or environ-
mental condition in which they will use the product.
This Limited Warranty is extended only to the person who purchased the product and continues to own the premises (where the door is installed) as his/her
primary residence (“Buyer”). This Limited Warranty does not apply to residences other than primary, or to commercial or industrial installations, or to installations on
rental property (even when used by a tenant as a residence). This Limited Warranty is not transferable to any other person (even when the premises is sold), nor does it
extend benefits to any other person. As a result this Limited Warranty does NOT apply to any person who purchases the product from someone other than an authorized
Wayne-Dalton dealer or distributor.
The Manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage attributable to improper storage, improper installation, or any alteration of the door or its components,
abuse, damage from corrosive fumes or substances, salt spray or saltwater air, fire, Acts of God, failure to properly maintain the door, or attempt to use the door, its
components or related products for other than its intended purpose and its customary usage. This Limited Warranty does not cover ordinary wear. This Limited Warranty
will be voided if any holes are drilled into the door, other than those specified by the Manufacturer.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS A CONSUMER PRODUCT AS DEFINED BY THE MAGNUSON-MOSS ACT. NO WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) WILL EXTEND BE-

Any claim under this Limited Warranty must be made in writing, within the applicable warranty period, to the dealer from which the product was purchased. Un-
less the dealer is no longer in business, a written claim to the Manufacturer will be the same as if no claim had been made at all.

or replaced. The decision about the manner in which the defect will be remedied will be at the discretion of the Manufacturer, subject to applicable law. THE REMEDY
WILL COVER ONLY MATERIAL. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER OTHER CHARGES, SUCH AS FIELD SERVICE LABOR FOR REMOVAL, INSTALLATION, PAINTING,
SHIPPING, ETC.

ranty; provided, however, that the installation date for the repaired or replaced product will be deemed to be the date the original product was installed, and this Limited
Warranty will expire at the same time as if there had been no defect. If a claim under this Limited Warranty is resolved in a manner other than described in the immedi-
ately preceding paragraph, then neither this Limited Warranty nor any other warranty from the Manufacturer will cover the repaired or replaced portion of the product.
THE REMEDIES FOR THE BUYER DESCRIBED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE EXCLUSIVE and take the place of any other remedy. The liability of the Manufac-
turer, whether in contract or tort, under warranty, product liability, or otherwise, will not go beyond the Manufacturer’s obligation to repair or replace, at its option, as
described above. THE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, including (but
not limited to) damage or loss of other property or equipment, personal injury, loss of profits or revenues, business or service interruptions, cost of capital , cost of
purchase or replacement of other goods, or claims of third parties for any of the foregoing.
• • Some States do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

under Wayne-Dalton’s limited warranty.
