PURPOSE
1.1

Discussion
This manual provides installation instructions for the Stanley Magic-Force Bifold Door
Systems. The Magic-Force bifold is an automatic folding door powered by a Magic-Force
operator. A four-panel unit consists of two pivot (FS) panels, two lead (FX) panels, and two
operators. A slip hinge links the pivot and lead panels and the pivot panels attach to separate
operators. A two-panel unit has only one pivot panel, one lead panel, and one operator.
The door package uses a standard Magic-Force / Magic-Swing header extrusion and 4
jambs. A breakout track is mounted between the header and each panel set. The breakout track
guides the lead panel across the door opening and allows the panel set to be broken out for
emergency egress. The Magic-Force bifold can be configured as follows:

1.2

Two-panel RH fold-in or fold-out, with or without transom

Two-panel LH fold-in or fold-out, with or without transom

Four-panel with or without transom

Applicability
This manual is applicable to the Stanley Magic-Force Bifold Door System. It provides
installation instructions for packages with or without integral transoms.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3.1

Checking the Rough Opening

3.1.1

ENSURE floor is level across the entire opening.

NOTE

Opening width should be package width plus (1/4 each side for shim and caulk clearance). This
clearance can be as small as 1/8 for a tight appearance with the aluminum storefront construction.

3.2

3.1.2

CHECK opening width.

3.1.3

CHECK opening height from finished floor.

3.1.4

SWEEP floor.

Evaluating Power Requirements

3.2.1

EVALUATE door system power requirements as follows:

ENSURE power source is a 96-134 VAC, 50/60 Hz source (single phase) with
15A circuit rating for 1 or 2 operators.

ENSURE a step-down transformer is used in 220 VAC applications.

ENSURE power source is a dedicated line.
