I have 2-10" doors. I put a Genie Max Force screw drive 2 HP and still didn't work. Maybe because I have the silver bubble insulation causing friction on the channels. Sounds like the gear is slipping with the load. Disconnect it, and it works with no load.
Just spent 3 days and about 450$ trying to do this. Bought metal and a welding machine to make a custom brackets etc. Instead of it working the bottom of the doors twist at various positions. While it seems cool after doing ot on mine I would not recommend trying this. You could easily wind up putting it all in just to be taking it all out. I get 7 days off ever 3 month and this not only wasted my money but 3 out of 7 days off. Roll up doors are not made for this.
me too. One big problem is design. It is difficult to raise on one side rather than from the center. It always rolls up unevenly. I am worried is will break the door. So this hack might work for some, but not for others. You risk a big investment..
You’re a genius! Doing this tomorrow.

Great ideas, what type of bushing is it? Where can I get it?
