THIS PICTURE SHOWS YOU A DOOR HUNG ON 1" LOW HEADROOM DOUBLE TRACK HARDWARE.WE HAVE FRAMED THE OPENING TO GET A FLUSH SURFACE TO HANG THE DOOR AND HARDWARE ON.IF YOU TAKE A LOOK UP AT THE TOP OF THE DOOR ON THE RIGHT SIDE. YOU SEE A CURVED TRACK AND ABOVE IT A STRAIGHT TRACK. THIS ALLOWS THE DOOR TO PULL STRAIGHT BACK AND USE LESS HEADROOM. YOU CAN HANG A DOOR AND OPENER LIKE THIS WITH ONLY (7) INCHES OF HEADROOM ABOVE THE DOOR.WE HOPE THIS INFORMATION IS OF HELP TO YOU. AS ALWAYS ANY QUESTIONS AT ALL. JUST GIVE US A CALL.

AN EMERGENCY RELEASE IS A KEYED CYLINDER, AND HERE IS HOW IT WORKS. WHEN YOU PUT THE KEY IN IN THE CYLINDER AND TURN IT, THE WHOLE KEY CYLINDER COMES OUT OF THE LOCK. IT IS ATTACHED TO A CABLE AND CONNECTED TO THE MANUAL RELEASE ON THE DOOR OPENER INSIDE THE GARAGE.YOU GIVE IT A TUG AND IT RELEASES THE TROLLY THAT BRINGS THE DOOR UP AND DOWN .NOW YOU CAN OPEN THE DOOR MANUALLY.YOU SHOULD ALWAYS GET ONE OF THESE INSTALLED WHEN YOU HAVE NO OTHER ACCESS TO THE INSIDE OF THE GARAGE. SO, IF YOU HAVE A POWER OUTAGE YOU CAN STILL GET IN.
