Column Support Angles
OVERVIEW
Column support angles are designed for straight wall wood buildings. When a bifold door is open, the rollers are pushing on the post. Over time, wood has the tendency to bow under the repeated pressure. The column support angles brace the top inside of the post where the roller loads are the greatest, preventing warping of the wood post. With the J channel roller track on the outside of the post, and the column support angles on the inside, this provides excellent structural support for the wood posts.
Column support angles consist of a pre-drilled, 10’ long angle which is fastened to the top 10’ of the building post. They are located inside the corner to provide support and ensure post longevity. The top of the column support angle is attached to the posts by the ½” outer hinge mounting bolts. The rest of the column support is fastened to the post by the provided structural screws.
The column support angles are factory finished in a white, two-part polyurethane paint.
