Hi, I went to a lot of extra trouble building my built in garage so I could use doors over the standard 8 ft tall . I made the ceiling 10 ft 3 in so if figured 15" for the door opener and track I could still set my header for a 9 ft door . Problem is the installers I talk to from sears and others do not want to get into a special order door . I installed my own doors a few times when I was in the construction business but always used the standard 7 or 8 ft . I have went to a supply house and they can order the door and related parts but want almost double price over the standard and doesnt include installation . I see on ebay where you can order track extensions for 10 ft chamberlan door openers . and also the hardware kits for 10 ft . It seems to me I could go to a door place and buy an extra door panel to add at top or make one for the other 12 " .I dont care if it is a perfect match at the top . My question is what all else do I need fro the 9 ft door , doesn't the opener have to have an extra ft of travel ? It seems like the cable lift types could just keep on turning if the spool would hold an extra ft . Will I have to special order the opener and what other parts would I need ? Thanks
