Great tutorial! Saved me $700 on hiring someone!

I looked on Chamberlain on the web for this extension and I couldn't find it lucky I found this video. Home Depot had the extension. Thanks

[@hughchristian1976]

Your video should come with every purchase of a Chamberlain door opener. Thank you.

8 foot rail is perfect 👍

[@daveandden]

Great video, Thank you

[@nstevens81e]

hey wait, where did that rail system?

[@ToxicHazardly]

Would you still need that extension if I already have an opener? I just need to replace my motor

[@DJ_PHILCO79]

Same question I have

[@jimpie231]

Find the extension sold in the store or on line. Check if old opener and new one use the same extension, if they do, you can buy your new opener and use the extension from your old opener.

What about a 9 ft door Just add another extension? Or will the motor not have enough rotations ?

[@HomeSource]

A standard opener won’t work for a 9’. Not just the extension but the chain won’t be long enough either. I’d have to call to a vendor for that one.

[@AD-df5tm]

Standard opener works fine for a 9'. They make 10' extensions for that. They are harder to find though because less common.

I recently purchased a 1/2 hp Chamberlain, belt drive for my condo, is there any reason you bought a chain drive? The price was the same as yours. Thanks.

[@HomeSource]

The belt drives are typically more expensive. If you got for the same price that’s great.

[@jimpie231]

Is there any reason that you didn’t buy a belt drive opener? I recently bought a belt drive opener and love how quiet it is, same hp, and price as yours. Thanks.

For anyone wondering don’t buy genie garage door openers they are garbage. Stick with Chamberlain and LiftMaster.
