For decades, the garage door opener was a box hanging from the ceiling with a long rail. Another approach is quickly gaining ground: the wall-mount opener<\/strong> (jackshaft), installed beside the door, directly on the torsion shaft. Here is why we are installing more and more of them.<\/p>\n

A completely free ceiling<\/h2>\n

No more rail and motor above the car: the wall-mount installs beside the door. Ideal for cathedral ceilings, overhead storage, very tall doors \u2014 or simply a cleaner, brighter garage.<\/p>\n

Noticeably quieter<\/h2>\n

No trolley rolling in a ceiling rail: the DC motor drives the shaft directly. Vibrations no longer transfer to the structure \u2014 a huge advantage when a bedroom sits above the garage.<\/p>\n

Built for outages and security<\/h2>\n

The LiftMaster models in this line include an integrated battery backup<\/strong> (the door works even during an outage), Wi-Fi and myQ for remote control, and on the 98032, an automatic lock<\/strong> that physically deadbolts the door on every close.<\/p>\n

Two models depending on the door<\/h2>\n

The LiftMaster 98022 covers sectional doors up to 850 lb (14 ft high); the high-capacity 98032 goes up to 1,100 lb with its commercial-grade gearbox \u2014 for solid wood or oversized doors. Browse our opener line<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Check before you buy<\/h2>\n

The wall-mount requires a door with torsion springs<\/strong> and a little side clearance. Most recent doors are compatible \u2014 we confirm it in one visit, and we take care of the installation. Request your quote<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
