Garage door - can you soft-start them?
My few-months-old Sears 3/4HP garage door opener, lifts a double door
up nice and smooth. However, when it goes down again, its like the motor is instantly up to speed and the door knocks its way down for a few seconds, jolting everything hard. As far as I know there are two adjusters that determine where the upmost and downmost points are, but I am not sure if there is any way to adjust the descent start. Put in a spring between the arm and the door? Thanks for any tips! DeanB |
