Hello,
I am looking for help installing a Honeywell 958 overhead door sensor. I bought the sensor, and no instructions came with it indicating how to install it.

Can anybody help? I can't figure out how it all goes on to the door...

Thanks in advance.

You mount the magnet and it's bracket onto the bottom edge of the door. Then you line the switch up on the floor, and screw it to the floor (I favor tapcon screws for this purpose).

Every overhead door is a little different in detail, you will have to play the the magnet and it's bracket for the best configuration.
