Ok, I figured that was the way to go. I plan on adding a 2x4 across
three studs, what size screws should be used to attach to the existing
supports?

5/16 lag srews are commonly used for residential openers, you must
determine the length based on your application but typically 2-1/2" long
will suffice.
