IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
The RD55 Econ must be installed
and operated in accordance with
the instructions supplied; failure
to do so could result in damage
to your door and compromise
your safety.
These fitting instructions are for guidance only, you should always assess your garage
construction for installation as each garage & opening has its own specific needs.
Please read these instructions carefully and in full before commencing the
installation of the roller garage door.
WARNING AND GUIDANCE NOTES
1 At least TWO people are required to install
this product.
2 Prior to installing please remove all rings,
watches and sharp objects to avoid any
possibility of damage.
3 Prior to installing please remove any
items of loose clothing to avoid any risk of
entanglement or injury.
4 Your door comes complete with a 3 pin plug
as standard (this is supplied and must be
fitted with a 13amp fuse) which should be
plugged straight into a 13amp 3 pin switched
socket in the vicinity of your door, should you
need any extra electrical work. This must be
carried out by a suitably qualified person, if
you have any doubts please consult
an electrician.
5 Your receiver box should be installed in
a location that is at a comfortable height to
operate the push buttons, but out of the easy
reach of children.
6 Please do not allow children to operate the
push buttons or remote control fobs, as
serious injury can occur from misuse.
7 Warning: you must have a clear line of sight
of the whole of your roller garage door when
the door is in operation. Failure to do so may
result in harm to persons or damage to your
roller garage door.

1. PREPARING SITE FOR INSTALLATION
1 Check all the measurements of your new
garage door against your order confirmation
and double check your opening size to
make sure everything is correct (fig.1.1) &
(fig.1.2).
2 Carefully remove your old garage door and
frame if applicable.
3 Sweep down the sides and lintel with a stiff
brush and clear all debris.
4 Make sure the opening is free from any raised
metal or brick work.

2. PREPARING GUIDE RUNNERS
FOR INSTALLATION
1 Both guide runners will be marked
with the letter ‘F’ to indicate the
front. This has the flat face when
looking in the rear box section of
the guide runner (fig.2.1). It will fit
against the wall for a behind fixing or
face out of the garage for a between
fixing.
2 Measure from floor to lintel and refer
to diagram 2, checking the lintel is
level. Cut the guide runners to size
as needed using a hack saw, for best
results cut the end which will be the
bottom (fig.2.2).
3 Offer both cut guide runners up
against the walls they will be fixed
to and mark the fixing points, either
on the flat face for a behind fixing
(fig.2.3) or for a between fixing in
the opening (fig.2.4). For best results
these should be as follows;
A Top fixing between 50mm to
100mm down from the top of the
guide rail.
B Bottom fixing 50mm to 100mm up
from the floor.
C Marking at least one other fixing,
spread these evenly between
the two already marked points
on the guide runners so that you
have a secure fixing.
D Drill a 7mm hole all the way
through each of the marks on
the guide runners and then drill
a 10mm hole to countersink
through the first layer only so you
can get the screw head through.

3. INSTALLING HEADER ASSEMBLY
1 Place your hop ups / step ladders
and one guide runner each side of
the opening.
2 With one person each end, lift the
header assembly by the header
plate up and into place, then guide
the locating stem at each end into
the hollow section of guide runners
(this can be made easier by slightly
angling the header if there is not
enough room to simply drop the
locating stem in) (fig.3.1).
3 Lift the whole unit flush into place
and check that the top box and
guide runners are plumb level and
square (fig.3.2 & fig.3.3).
4 Drill a 7mm fixing through the
top hole in the guide runners and
secure into place (fig.3.4).
5 Check the case and guide runners
are still level and square, then
proceed to drill a 7mm fixing
through the remaining holes,
remembering to check the guide
runners are square and plumb after
each fixing.
6 Check to make sure all fixings have
not caused the front fascia to be
pulled in, as this will rub against
the slats causing damage and
scratching to the face.
7 Seal down the sides and along
the top case (silicon sealant is
recommended).

8 (For Internal Manual Override system)
Remove winding stem from your winding
handle where it has been taped securely.
9 (For External Manual Override system)
remove metal shaft via the plastic circlet
(p.34, fig.15.1, number 4 ).
10 Remove screw from end of stem and keep
safe for later.
11 Cut cable ties and release curtain, and place
available curtain into guide rails through the
mouth of the guides.
12 Insert winding stem through pre-drilled
hole in header plate. Turn to release
more curtain into guides, roughly 4
slats in total, remove winding stem and
keep safe for later.

9. SETTING MOTOR LIMITS
1 Press and hold the down button on receiver box so the curtain starts to roll down to 300mm (roughly 6
slats) from top of the guide runners.
2 Place the plastic wand in to the limit nearest the curtain of the door (fig.9.1) and turn 10 times in the
negative direction (this is marked on the head of the motor near the limits) (fig.9.2).
3 Press and hold the up button and the door will travel to the top and should stop on its own, if the door
gets to 100mm from the top of guide runners (roughly 2 slats) and hasn’t stopped, then stop the door
and take it back down to 300mm from top of guides (roughly 6 slats) turn again 15 times in the negative
direction, take the door up and repeat until the door does stop before it gets to 100mm from top.
4 Whilst holding the up button turn the wand in the positive direction and the door will start to judder up,
keep going until there is only the last slat in the guides, take the door down a little and back up to make
sure you are happy.
5 Move the plastic wand in to the limit nearest you inside the garage (fig.9.1) and turn 10 times in the
negative direction.
6 Press and hold the down button so the door closes, it should stop before it touches the floor if this is not
the case take the door back up 300mm off the floor and turn again 15 times in the negative direction, take
the door back down and repeat until the door does stop before it reaches the floor.
7 Whilst holding the down button turn the wand in the positive direction and the door will start to judder
down, keep going until the door slats are fully compressed and a little pressure is applied from the top
(don’t apply to much pressure as this will damage the door and straps), take the door up a little and back
down to make sure you are happy.
8 Once the guide runners are fixed you will need to secure the top box, with the curtain to the closed
position you will have access to the whole top box. This is best done through the end flanges of the header
plate, either forward or sideways through the header plate itself if a between fixing (fig.9.3).
9 Close the door down to make sure the curtain doesn't catch anywhere then seal down the sides and along
the top case if needed (silicon sealant is recommended).
10 (Internal Manual Override only) Take winding stem and screw. Insert winding stem into the motor through
pre-drilled hole in header plate, then secure in place with screw on top.
PLEASE NOTE! You will see there are optional fixing positions on the straps for them
to be screwed to the barrel, these are not needed but if you would like to do this
PLEASE BE WARNED that no screws can be secured 650mm from the head of the
motor as you will damage it!
