    Great info. One tip is Get a clip on mic. Too much echo in that garage makes it had to understand you. Thanks for the info..:)

    Keep your fingers away from set screws. Also, looks like spring is oiled so you don't need to stretch it out too much.

    Hello, Thanks for your post. I am replacing the current cable that is 8' 6" or 101". What size cable should I buy? 8' or 9' feet.. Thank you for any help

    Thank you for your response James. you should be a cable that is 8'6" in length which is for a 7' high garage door. However you could also instead a 9'6" cable as well. the longer cable may require you to add 2 more quarters or 1/2 turn to balce your door. Thanks Darren

    Thank You for your response cwncwn-sg4ke.I love those glasses. They keep most of debris out of your eyes. I bought them from a Local supplier and I might add them to my website. Thanks Darren

    Using drummer sticks works just as good as the metal rods to adjust tension spring. They fit in holes perfectly.
