SIDE PAD INSTALLATION
1. Mark mounting location for side pads
Measure the dock door opening. Divide this
measurement in half and mark the centerline of the
opening at dock level.
From this point, measure out half of the head pad or
head curtain width and mark the wall at this location.
(Note: Mounting bars are 1” shorter than unit width).
Do this on both sides of the door opening. The
outside edges of each side pad should line up with
these marks. (See Figure 1.)
side pad. The bracket type for the inside of the side
pads is determined by the offset from the edge of the
door opening to the inside edge of the side pad
backer. (See figure 3 for bracket details).
Warning: Attaching the top and bottom brackets
more than 6” from the end of the steel backer could
result in damage to the side pad backer. Locating
the brackets as near as possible to the ends of the
side pads provides the best support for the backer.
Note:
For wood backers, if applicable, it is
acceptable to move the brackets as far as 12”
maximum from the ends.
FIGURE 1
Reference the Product Application Form (PAF) or
consult the sales representative for the appropriate
mounting height. Typically, the bottom of the side
pad/side frame is mounted at dock height, but some
applications may require mounting them at a different
location. (Example: When dock bumpers are
mounted above dock height or above the pit floor on
vertical leveler applications, it may be required to
mount the bottom of the side pad/side frames at a
height even with the top of the bumpers).
FIGURE 2
2. Fasten mounting brackets to side pads
Before attaching any brackets to the side pads,
review the "Fastening Methods" section of
installation instructions for the recommended
fastener type and location for the various
building wall types.
Fasten three 'L' brackets to the outside edge of each
side pad using fastener provided. Also, fasten three
brackets to the inside edge of each side pad using
fastener provided. (See Figure 2). The top and
bottom brackets should not be more than 6" away
from each end of the pad, and the middle one should
be approximately centered along the height of the

3. Fasten side pads to building wall
Fasten each side pad to the building wall and door
jamb through the brackets using appropriate
fastener. Again, see the "Fastening Methods"
section of installation instructions for the
recommended fastener type and location for the
various building wall types. (See Figure 4) Verify that
the space between the side pads, at the top, for the
curtain drop, will create the correct ”gap”. (See Steps
1-2 & Figure 6 under the “Standard Pitch Head
Curtain Installation” on page 6 for details).

STANDARD PITCH HEAD CURTAIN INSTALLATION
1. Locating Canopy Assembly on Side Pads
The head curtain canopy assembly rest on two
triangular foam supports sewn to underside of the
canopy and these supports rest directly on top of flat
top side pads. There are no endcaps on this
assembly. (See Figure 5) Position the header
assembly on top of the side pads such that the ends
of the steel tubing are 1⁄2” from the side pad edges,
front and back. Verify that the face curtain between
the side pads has a gap equal distance from each,
inside edge of the side pads. This distance (gap)
should be 1⁄2”. (See Figure 6) Adjust the side pads or
the attachment of the face curtain velcro on the
canopy to achieve this gap.
2.
Mark and drill mounting holes for head curtain
canopy assembly
The building wall mounting bar comes with pre-drilled
holes located under the fabric cover. There are (2)
holes on each right and left side and (3) holes at the
center location. Normally, the two outside holes and
the center hole are used. Use a hole at each location
that best suites your application, using a minimum of
(3) holes total. Mark the location of the mounting
holes onto the building wall and drill for the anchors.
See also "Fastening Methods" section of installation
instructions for the recommended fastener type and
location for the various building wall types. (Note:
The triangular foam supports are only used on
standard pitch headers).
FIGURE 6
3. Fasten Header to building wall
The anchors can be installed two ways: 1) install the
anchors first, then slide the mounting bar over the
anchors or 2) position the mounting bar over the
drilled holes and install anchors thru the bar into the
building wall. (See Figure 6) Fasten the header to
the building wall. Finally, check the roller inside the
curtain for proper rope routing. (See Figure 7)
4. Go to Boot Installation on page 9.

45º PITCH HEAD CURTAIN INSTALLATION
1. Install Risers to Building Wall
The risers should be positioned directly above and
flush with the outboard edge of the side member
backer. Each riser needs to be secured to the building
wall in a minimum of (2) locations. Clearance holes
will be required in the provided square steel tubing.
See also "Fastening Methods" section of installation
instructions for the recommended fastener type and
location for the various building wall types. (See
Figure 8)
3. Mark and drill mounting holes for head curtain
canopy assembly.
The building wall mounting bar comes with predrilled holes located under the fabric cover. There
are (2) holes on each right and left side and (3) holes
at the center location. Normally, the two outside
holes and the center hole are used. Use a hole at
each location that best suites your application, using
a minimum of (3) holes total. Mark the location of the
mounting holes onto the building wall and drill for the
anchors. See also "Fastening Methods" section of
installation instructions for the recommended
fastener type and location for the various building
wall types.
4. Fasten Header to Building Wall
The anchors can be installed two ways: 1) install
anchors first, then slide mounting bar over the
the building wall.
5. Attach Spring Steel to Top of Side Pad Backer
FIGURE 8
The spring steel comes attached, at the front, to the
bottom of the front bar. The spring steel gets attached,
in the field, at the back, to the top of the side pad.
(See Figure 9) Lift and locate the canopy assembly on
top of the side pads. The front bar is to be located 1⁄2”
off the side pad edge. This will put the spring steel
about 1 1⁄4” off the side pad edge and the spring steel
along the side of the riser at the back. There are no
endcaps on this assembly. Verify that the face curtain
between the side pads has a gap equal distance from
each, inside edge of the side pads. This distance
(gap) should be 1⁄2”. (Same as std pitch unit. See
Figure 6) Adjust the side pads or the attachment of the
face curtain velcro on the canopy to achieve this gap.
Lift and center the back mounting bar over and on top
of the risers.
(Note: The face curtain portion of the canopy
assembly does not necessarily need to be
attached to canopy during the canopy install.
Detaching the face curtain from the face curtain
mounting velcro on the canopy pocket, then reattaching after canopy installation, can make the
installation easier. Make sure the face curtain is
aligned properly to canopy velcro and underneath
the rain flap when reinstalling).
Pub. ID300002 Rev. 3 - June 2014
Attach the spring steel, at the back, to the top of the
side pad backer using the provided fasteners. (See
Figure 9) Finally, check the roller inside the curtain
for proper rope routing. (See Figure 7)
FIGURE 9
7
FLAT PITCH HEAD CURTAIN INSTALLATION
Position the header assembly on top of the side pads
such that the ends of the steel tubing itself are 1⁄2” from
the side pad edges, front and back. (See Figure 10.)
Both the front steel tube and the back steel tube rest in
notches at the top of the side pads. There are no
endcaps on this assembly. Verify that the face curtain
between the side pads has a gap equal distance from
each, inside edge of the side pads. This distance (gap)
should be 1⁄2”. (See Figure 11) Adjust the side pads or
the attachment of the face curtain velcro on the canopy
to achieve this gap.
3. Fasten Header to building wall
The anchors can be installed two ways: 1) install the
anchors first, then slide the mounting bar over the
the building wall. Finally, check the roller inside the
curtain for proper rope routing. (See Figure 7)
2. Mark and drill mounting holes for head curtain
canopy assembly.
The building wall mounting bar comes with pre-drilled
holes located under the fabric cover. There are (2)
holes on each right and left side and (3) holes at the
center location. On flat top headers, the two outside
anchor locations will land in between the side pads, so
use the holes 12” off the outside edges and use one of
center holes that best suites your application. Use a
minimum of (3) holes total. Mark the location of the
mounting holes onto the building wall and drill for the
anchors. See also "Fastening Methods" section of
installation instructions for the recommended fastener
type and location for the various building wall types.

BOOT INSTALLATION
1.
Locating Boots and Attaching to Header
Position the boot top, outside corner over the top,
outside corner of the header. (See Figure 12 for
std/45º units, Figure 13 for flat tops). The rain flap
on header must be lifted up to expose the velcro for
standard and 45º units, but just over the top the of
the velcro tab on flat top units. (Note: On 45º units,
the gutter must be loosened and the corner boots
located behind the gutter/foam tape assembly, then
tighten down the gutter again).
Align the corners and the edges, then attach the
velcros together. The inside leg of the boot will
slide between the outside edge of the face curtain
and the inside of the side pad. (See Figure 15)
After making sure the boot corners are tight, and
the sides of the boot are aligned with the side pad,
the outside endcap can be attached. Use a screw
from the top outside side pad bracket, to attach the
endcap in one place to side pad backer. (See
Figure 15) Align the face curtain velcro to the boot
velcro. This velcro attachment takes the place of a
wind strap. (See Figure 16)

BOOT INSTALLATION CONT. & PULL ROPE CLEAT INSTALLATION
1.
Locating Cleat and Adjusting Curtain
On standard pitch units, attach the rope ring/
hanger(s),at the top, inside bevel of the left side
pad and route ropes thru the ring(s). (See Figure
18). Using the screws provided, attach the rope
cleat to the inside edge of the left side pad backer.
The rope cleat should be positioned approximately
4' up from the bottom of the side pad. Once the
cleat is in place, the pull ropes from the head
curtain are to be tied to the rope cleat. (See Figure
18.) Test the operation of the drop curtain. Initially,
the first pull will release the two mating velcros.
The roller in drop curtain should always remain at
the bottom of the curtain edge, even when adjusted
upward. Verify this operation, then set the drop to
be pulled up fully and tie off ropes.
FIGURE 16
Attach the inside legs of boots to the inside of the
side pad backers. (See Figure 17) Make sure the
legs comes off the front of the boot straight back
along the side pad. Align the leg back edge, flush
with the backer against the wall. The middle is
designed to bulge out. Attach with appropriate
screws at two locations minimum, approximately 1”2” off top and bottom edges. Add more locations as
needed, with max. spacing at 12”. The leg has a
piece of a HMWPE plastic sewn to the inside. The
leg “bulges” out even more after impact from the
trailer. This “bulging” captures or locks the face
curtain sealing edge in between the side pads. The
space between the face curtain edge and the side
pads is critical for allowing the curtain to fall down
when adjusting for varying trailer heights.
FIGURE 18
Final Adjustments

Rope routing and curtain pull up
Verify that the ropes are going thru the pulleys and
rings at good angles so not to cause drag. If
necessary, re-orientate pulleys and rings by
twisting them. There are only two ropes that pull up
curtain and one safety rope on roller at center.
Verify curtain operation by pulling down on ropes at
cleat location. After first initial velcro pull away
between face curtain and boots, the curtain/roller
assembly should drop under it’s own weight and
then be able to be pulled up again with less force
than the first pull up. Make adjustments as needed.

RETROFIT INSTALLATIONS
1. ID3C on existing TPHC/IDHC Units
Only the ID3C face curtain is required for the retrofit
onto a std, 45º or flat pitch existing unit. All other
parts of the existing unit will install directly with the
ID3C face curtain.
If the whole ID3C aftermarket retrofit kit was purchased,
remove the face curtain portion from the head curtain
canopy assembly by disconnecting the velcros from
under the rain flap. (discard the canopy portion)
Remove the boots and face curtain from the head
curtain canopy assembly on the existing unit. Re-install
the new face curtain onto the existing canopy assembly
by connecting the matching velcros. Re-install the new
boots from the retrofit kit. If replacing just the face
curtain, remove the boots and the face curtain from the
head curtain canopy assembly on the existing unit. Reinstall the new face curtain onto the existing canopy
assembly by connecting the matching velcros. Reinstall the existing boots.
Remove the spring steel plates from the old unit.
Attach the plates to the underside of the two bars on
the new header as shown in Figure 20. Align plates
flush to the end of the bars and flush to front and
back edges of the bars. The spring steel and two
bars will sit on top of the existing sid pads. Follow
the instructions on page 8, starting on Step 2.
Continue following any other instructions as needed,
found in this manual.
2. ID3C Std Pitch Retrofit Kit on Flat Top Side Pads
The ID3C Head Curtain design can retrofit directly
onto any existing flat top side pads. Consult
Applications for all other situations.
Follow the standard pitch head curtain installation
instructions, found on page 6, Step 1. Continue
following any other instructions as needed, found in this
manual.
3. ID3C 45º Pitch Retrofit Kit on Flat Top Side Pads
The ID3C Head Curtain design can retrofit directly
onto any existing flat top side pads. Consult
Applications for all other situations.
Follow the 45º pitch head curtain installation
instructions, found on page 7, Step 1. Continue
following any other instructions as needed, found in this
manual.
4. ID3C Flat Pitch Retrofit Kit on Flat Top Side Pads
The ID3C Head Curtain design can only retrofit
directly onto any existing Frommelt TPC or IDSC
flat top side pads. Consult Applications for all
other situations.
Review the “Flat Pitch Head Curtain” instructions on
page 8. The retrofit header installs the same way
except for the following changes; 1) spring steel is used
to hold the front bar and mounting bar in position and 2)
the front bar and mounting bar rest on top of the side
pads as opposed to seating in the side pad notches.
Pub. ID300002 Rev. 3 - June 2014

5. ID3C Std Pitch Retrofit Kit on non-standard
pitched side pads
The ID3C standard pitch retrofit kit may be able
to retrofit directly onto a side pads pitched
between 0 to 3”, front to back.
Consult
Applications for > 3” pitch and other situations.
Check the overall unit height off grade and the
required mount height changes to make sure the
retrofit will work properly before starting.
Remove the foam from inside the two triangular
foam supports sewn to underside of the canopy. Cut
the foam to a consistant 1 1/4” thickness, front to
back. Re-insert the foam back into pocket and
secure the pocket closed. Follow the standard pitch
installation instructions found on page 6 for the rest
of the installation.

INSTALLATION CONT. & FASTENING METHODS
Sealing Unit to Building Wall
Fastening Methods
1.
See anchor manufacturer's recommendation on all
anchors used for minimum anchor embedment,
length, location and anchor use with the various
wall/material types.
Seal the Perimeter of the Unit
Use a good grade of silicon caulk, foil backed butyl
rubber flashing tape, or equal to seal along the top
edge of the head curtain where it meets the wall
and down the outside vertical edge of the head
curtain and side pads as needed. Be sure to follow
the manufacturers recommendations when
applying the flashing tape, caulk, or other sealant.
In instances where the gaps between the unit and
the building wall exceed 1⁄2", it is recommended to
fill these gaps with a foam backer rod or equal
before applying sealant. (See Figure 21).
Concrete Block or Brick Wall
Preferred Method
1. Through bolt fastening. Bore a hole through the
building wall. Use a 3⁄8" diameter threaded rod with a
washer, nut, and jam nut on each end - it will be
necessary to install a back-up plate inside the
building wall when the wall will not support the bolt.
Alternate Method
2. Anchor through horizontal mortar joint. Min. of 3⁄8"
anchor diameter. Consult anchor manufacturer’s
recommended minimum anchor embedment to
determine anchor length for your wall/material type.
(Acceptable only on foam seals, only if used on
horizontal mortar joints and only if the mortar joint is
in good condition and can support the members).
Concrete Tilt-Up Walls (Precast)
Use 3⁄8" lag bolts with expansion shields, 3⁄8" one piece
anchor bolts with expansion collar, or equivalent
fastener. If building wall is too thin to effectively hold
the lag bolt or anchor bolt, the through bolt method
of attachment is required.
Consult anchor manufacturer’s recommended
minimum anchor embedment to determine anchor
length for your wall/material type.
Metal Sided Building
FIGURE 20
12
Through bolt method of attachment is required for
this building style. It will be necessary to install a
back-up plate that is fastened directly to structural
members when it is not possible to fasten directly to
structural building members. Use a 3⁄8" diameter bolt
with a washer and lock nut to fasten the unit to the
structural members of the building or to the back-up
plates. If necessary, use a 3⁄8" diameter threaded rod
with a washer and lock nut on each end.
