Above: This is the foundation where the track will be installed.  Typically you would be drilling into concrete but you can also drill into wood like we do here. Washers are set to the proper height with a guide which you can use to set your laser level to (marked in blue with the painters tape).

Above: The track is set and adjusted to ensure that it is level.

Above: This is a close-up of the drainage system. For display purposes this one is cut short, but typically all of the pipe is interconnected and is run away from the building. So, in the unlikely event the door is left open during a rain storm, the water will still properly drain and not impact the components, ensuring long-term durability.

For good measure, a story pool guide is used to ensure that the height is the same across the top frame.

The side jamb has to be absolutely straight to ensure that the door continues to operate properly. You can also see that the side jamb is sitting on the track with a half-inch space for adjustments.

Once everything was in-place, the panels were lifted and set into place. Each panel here is approximately 5′ wide X 10′ tall. Check out the video below to see how smooth these doors operate
