installation requirements for Wayne Dalton Classic Steel Garage Doors – Models 8024 and 8124

Garage Opening Compatibility

The garage opening must be properly measured, square, and level to ensure correct panel alignment and smooth door operation. Accurate measurements help prevent binding, uneven gaps, and premature hardware wear.
