Terence McCann Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Might that be an authorized addon from the manufacture??? If not the installer is resourceful and a part time engineer to boot. Looks like the safeties are wired in, were they working? I gotta say, I'm pretty damn impressed.

Darren Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Jim, When those doors were operated, did they bind at all or did they go smooth? I can see the doors going up & down a bit skewed... Terry, The eyes & pressure were operating OK. My concern would be additional 'play' in the chain as it wraps around the corner. I did search LiftMaster web site, could find no type of modification devices as pictured. Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hausdok Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Hi All Has anyone got a photo of a recent either knock your socks off stupid or very educational type of issue that we can post to the front page of TIJ? If so, please submit them to this forum - Picture This - in the Discussion Forums section. They won't display until I've posted them and I'll keep them in order of submission. Submit a photo along with a head/shoulder shot and I'll see what I can do about displaying them together and giving you credit for the photo and may you uh, er, uh, FAMOUS! Yeah, that's it, famous. I can only post one photo, so if I get a series of them, I'll post them on a first come first served basis and change them ever week or so. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!

hausdok Posted March 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Hi Chris, Yeah, that is a good one. Anyone got a suitable caption. Anything I have to say about it probably isn't too politically correct. OT - OF!!! M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
