Claim 0:
1. A door guide of a vertically stacking door, comprising:
a vertical track;
a track coupling coupled to the vertical track;
a first curved track portion coupled to the track coupling;
a second curved track portion coupled to the track coupling; and
a ramp coupled to the vertical track, wherein the ramp is located below the first curved track portion and the second curved track portion, wherein the ramp provides an inclined surface to interact with a cam lever of an end cap of a first panel of the vertically stacking door to cause an adjacent second panel of the vertically stacking door to separate from the first panel of the vertically stacking door, wherein the ramp engages a second cam wheel of the cam lever to pivot the cam lever relative to the first panel of the vertically stacking door which causes a first cam wheel of the cam lever to apply a force against a cam surface of the adjacent second panel of the vertically stacking door to cause the adjacent second panel of the vertically stacking door to separate from the first panel of the vertically stacking door as the vertically stacking door is being raised.
