When installing your door you must use sections of the appropriate height in the right stack-

ing order. What sections heights you need to use in what order depends on the height of your 

door.
Unless your door is six sections in height, you will not receive an Intermediate III section.
The 

BOTTOM SECTION

 can be identified by the factory attached bottom bracket warning 

labels on each end stile.
The 

INTERMEDIATE I SECTION

 may have a warning label attached to either right or left 

hand end stile of the section. This section is always the 3rd section from the bottom of the 

door.
