to secure these to the rafter. Loosen and adjust if 
needed before installing the horizontal doorframe tube. 
 
 
14.  Choose one square tube for the only horizontal 

frame member (shown above) of the end wall 
framing and cut it to the width of the rough door 
opening. 

 
 
15.  Slide the horizontal frame tube between the vertical 

doorframe tubes and secure as shown in the next 
diagram. 

 
 
 

 

 

 

16.  Verify that the tube is level and attach it to the end 

wall assembly between the vertical doorframe tubes 
(as shown) using two QH1330 angle brackets to 
complete the rough doorframe opening. 

 

NOTE:

 To this point, all end wall frame tubes are in 

place, plumb, and secured. The end panel is also 
installed. 
 
17.  Continue with cutting the end panel and installing 

the pedestrian door. 

 
 

 

 

INSTALL PEDESTRIAN DOOR 
 

To this point, the end panel and doorframe are installed 
(front end wall). 
 
For the following procedure, the rough door opening is 
cut in the end panel and the material is wrapped around 
each frame member of the doorframe 

before

 the 

pedestrian door is installed. 

 
Complete the following steps: 
 
1.  Using the frame tubes of the door opening as a 

guide, use a utility knife or scissors to cut through 
the end panel and remove the material from the 
opening where the door will be installed. 

 

ATTENTION:

 Allow enough of the end panel material to 

remain so you can wrap it around the doorframe tubes 
and attach to the tubes using Tek screws and fender 
washers. 
 

 

 

Remove additional material from around the brackets if 
needed. See the photo that follows. All screws that 
secure the end panel to the frame must be installed on 
the surface as shown below (see arrow) and above to 
avoid interfering with the door installation.
