I have a low ceiling. What opener should I install?
A residential garage door requires a minimum of 4 ½ inches of headroom. Many different special track options are available and make it possible for doors to be installed in non-standard garages. Your garage door system may need a:
- Low-headroom track system (which slopes down instead of running parallel to the ceiling)
- Low-headroom-torsion rear-track system
- Another type of unique track system designed for minimum headroom
For a garage door opener, you will need a little more headroom—approximately 6 ½ inches minimum.
