ABSTRACT:
A bottom fixture for overhead garage doors which can be selectively installed on the lower portion of either the right hand or left hand side of the garage door. The bottom fixture is an L-shaped bracket having a wide flat side and a narrow flat side at right angles to one another. A first pair of parallel laterally spaced ear members and a second pair of parallel laterally spaced ear members extend perpendicular to the same surface of the wide side and each pair is spaced a predetermined distance from the top and bottom ends of the bracket and each pair of laterally spaced ears has axially aligned apertures on a horizontal axis to receive the shaft of a roller device having a roller rotatably mounted at its outer end. A first and second sheave extend perpendicular to the same surface of the narrow side on a horizontal axis and are spaced from the top and bottom ends a predetermined distance and are configured to receive a cable. The bracket member can be selectively inverted and secured on either the right hand side or left hand side of the overhead garage door with the shaft of the roller device selectively installed in either of the first or said second pair of ears with the roller disposed on the outer side edge of the overhead garage door and with the first and second sheaves disposed on the outer side edge of the overhead garage door and the cable slidably engaged with the lowermost sheave. The bracket may also be made with only a pair of sheaves or with only two pairs of ears.
