My two car garage isn't quite deep enough for a lift to clear the garage door in an open position. And I'm putting a lift in there anyway I can. But it would be REALLY nice if I can get an additional storage spot when I go to it.
Any ideas? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) |

chris, what is the measurement from the floor to the bottom of the joists? sometimes a set high lift tracks aren't the solution. if you have a ceiling mounted opener that will dictate your overall clearance.

My problem was no more ceiling height, and with 2 single garage doors the 914 would be hitting the opener. Well, 914 is only 'tall' in the middle, so I moved the opener 2 feet toward the door, shortened chain and guide. (Door opens only 5'10" now, which is my height (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). But now the opener is over the engine bay and 914 can go up to the rafters.
