Suggestions based on experience??

What kind of opener do you have, the track with chain or the coiled
spring type?
Does it clunk when it starts to close, during the travel somewhere, or
when it contacts th the floor?
Where does the clunk noise originate from, the motor, the track or coil,
the door itself?
Is there a visible momentary stoppage, shudder, or other unusual
movement when it clunks?


It is clunking when it hits the floor which makes me think it is the
limit adjustment. Now I just need to find where it is.
