Garage Door Opener - How to Install One

Installing your own garage door opener can be complicated and frustrating, but the daring individuals that take on that project successfully save themselves hundreds of dollars and enjoy the convenience and security that it provides. A kit can be purchased at most home improvement stores and usually all parts and hardware needed for the installation is included. Most sets will include the garage opening device, the tracks, trails, chains, and the trolley, a keypad opening device, sensors, and remote button for your car, and all brackets, nuts, bolts, and screws necessary. Some sets will include a wireless security keypad to install outside the house, but if not you can a purchase and fit one that is compatible with your system.

Ceiling Mount Bracket

Each set usually comes with very long and detailed instructions of how to fit it. Read those directions carefully and follow them closely. To get a quick run through of the process and prepare yourself for the project ahead of you, read the following basic steps:

Ceiling Mount Bracket

You will need to bolt the three T rails together as well as the idler pulley to the end of the T rail closest to the garage gate. Then slide the trolley onto the track and bolt the end of the T rail track to the opening device. Attach the end of the drive belt to the trolley.

Then wrap the chain around the sprocket located on the opening device. Then attach the other end of the chain to the trolley. You will need to firmly mount the bracket included to the wall above the entrance. Make sure that it gives the entrance two inches of clearance when it is opening. Then raise the opener unit and open the door.

Prop the opener unit on something like a ladder so that it is one and a half inches above the open door. Attach the steel brackets that are included to the ceiling joists centered with your gate. Bolt the opener unit to the steel bracket. Now it is time to install the inside push button control device to the wall where ever you would like. Most install it next to the gate that enters the house. You will need to run wiring to the opening unit.

Install the electric sensor near the ground on the wall of the entrance. If you have an outside wireless keypad, install it now or at the end of the whole procedure. Finally you will want to attach the gate to the opening system. To do this you will need to bolt a door bracket to the garage gate. Attach the straight arm to the trolley and the curved arm to the door bracket and then bolt the two arms together. Make sure the opening system unit it is plugged into an outlet, cross your fingers, and test it out.
