Massachusetts homeowners often deal with older housing stock, some of which may have unique garage configurations. When installing a new Raynor opener, we assess the existing door weight, track condition, and headroom available to determine the appropriate horsepower and mounting style. Our process involves securing the opener to the ceiling or wall angle, then attaching the trolley and chain or belt drive system to the door itself. We then calibrate the travel limits and force settings to ensure safe and efficient operation, and test safety features like the auto-reverse mechanism.
