Installation Guide

Step 1 of 5: Getting Started

Be Careful!
A garage door’s frame, track, and hardware can be sharp!

Installing your new one or two car garage door cover is easy, but best accomplished by two people. Each cover is designed for a snug fit, so be prepared to stretch, and pull your cover into position.

With your garage door closed, take a rag or paper towel, and clean the excess grease buildup from your garage door’s track and pulley.

Step 2 of 5: Positioning

Helpful Hint:
We recommend two people work together to install this cover...but we have a single person option for you DIYers.

Option A: 2 Person Recommended Install

Most electric garage door openers have a feature to stop the garage door anywhere along the track. Simply press the door button twice at the desired location, and the door should stop.

Begin opening your garage door but stop when the top of the door is just starting to pull away from the door frame. From the front of the door, have an assistant help lift and pass a top corner of the cover behind the top corner of the door.

Option B: Single Person Install

If you are alone, open your garage door and lay the cover on the top (exterior surface) of the door. It’s important to slide the cover through the curved garage door arm as you work the cover over the door.

Then, carefully side the cover across the entire width of the door making sure the decorative image facing up. Position the top corners of the cover near the top corners of your garage door.

Step 3 of 5: Top Collar Attachment

Warning!
Do not wrap the cover around the track! The collar should only be wrapping around the garage door panel and top wheel assembly.

Your cover is equipped with four reinforced collars at each corner. Carefully wrap the top collars of the cover around the top corners of the garage door.

Attach zipper side A and zipper side B between the side of the garage door and track. Do the same on the opposite top corner. Be prepared to stretch the cover when attaching the final top zipper.

Step 4 of 5: Layout

Lookout!
As you close your garage door for the first time, double check the cover for any snags or binding issues.

With the top collars installed, the easiest way to layout your cover is to close your garage and allow the cover to fall and hang loosely.

With someone helping you, reopen the garage door while lightly pulling down on the bottom edge to ensure the cover is not pinched by the closing seems between each door panel. This will smooth out your cover and allow you to more easily attach the bottom collars.

Step 5 of 5: Bottom Collar Attachment

Remember
Our covers are designed to fit tightly so be prepared to really tug and stretch that last collar around the corner of your garage door!

With the garage open, carefully wrap the bottom collars of the cover around the bottom corners of the garage door. Attach zipper side C and zipper side D between the side of the garage door and track

That’s it, you’re done! If you encounter any problems or have any questions, please call or email us! You can also find some answers to commonly asked question in our FAQ section.

We hope you enjoy your Garage Celebration!

Just a note to say how pleased we were with the whole experience purchasing from you! We had a large party for the 4th and the covers were a huge hit. 😍 Everyone in the neighborhood was talking about it. The quality is excellent, and installation easy. We washed them and folded them back into the bag provided. You both should be very proud of what you have created and thank you for doing so!

I have been decorating my home for Halloween for over 30 years and I have looked for something that I could put on my garage door and still open it and this cover worked perfectly. This door cover withstood multiple openings, direct high-altitude sun, snow, rain and 60+ MPH winds and still looks great!
