How to replace the top Panel
start by locking the down in the down position and you may want to use vice grips in addition to the latch on your door, as some door will already have the latch removed, when the door is secure in the down position and its now safe to remove the top panel, start by removing the hinges first leaving the wheels for last, when all the hinges are off its a good idea to have someone hold the panel in place so that as you remove the wheels you can do with out worry of the panel falling , when both top roller hinges are removed it is now time to take the panel off and replace it, if the next panel down is also to be removed, simply undo the hinges and as before remove the roller hinges last as they help you to keep control of the door. you will notice the top panel has a long metal peice we call a strut remove it from the old panel and place it in the same position on the new panel , now you are ready to reinstall, should you need any phone clarification feel free to call me at ,602-418-9814
