Introduction Your garage door is equipped with a Removable Post or posts for use against high windload conditions. Under normal operations, the Removable Post is not to be engaged. The horizontal struts (see figure on door label to right) provide the structural strength for normal operation and wind conditions. The principle of the Removable Post is to provide an additional structural member between the concrete floor and the header support. The Removable Windload Post should be engaged for wind speed in excess of 75 mph.
