Do not select a replacement bottom bracket based only on its general appearance. Commercial bottom fixtures can differ in track size, height, flange dimensions, cable attachment position, and pin configuration.
What the Bottom Bracket Does
The bottom bracket mounts to the lowest section of the garage door and serves as the connection point between the door and the lift cable.
As the torsion or counterbalance system operates, the lift cables transfer force to these brackets to raise and lower the door. Because the bottom brackets carry substantial cable load, proper matching and installation are important.
Installation & Safety
Garage door bottom brackets are connected to lift cables that can remain under significant spring tension, even when the door is closed.
Do not loosen, remove, or adjust a bottom bracket while the counterbalance system is under tension. Installation or replacement should be performed by a qualified garage door technician using appropriate procedures and tools.
