GARAGE DOOR OPERATORS
There are many options when it comes to garage door openers, however due to the heavy-duty construction and weight of our doors, we recommend using a 3/4 HP, or higher, operator such as the LiftMaster 8587WL.
- Durable chain drive for long-term reliability
- 3/4 HP AC motor lifts heavy and reinforced doors, even in high winds
- I-Beam rail system provides maximum support
