Beginning in late June, Martin Door
included the new support bracket into
packages for Martin Door openers. Several
dealers, who have not been apprised
of the change called about the missing
Z brackets and the two pieces of 5"
punched angle, previously used.
One time-saving feature of the new
bracket is that it has flaps, which
fold over to hold the rail in place.
Previously, a separate part and an extra
step was required. Another feature is
that the bracket can be mounted directly
over the power head, between the two
"C" brackets. This makes it
more versatile than the old bracket,
especially for an R & R job, when
an installer is replacing an old opener,
and does not want to dramatically change
the ceiling mounting location.
