abtin90 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Evening all I've purchased a new house which has a nice well sized single garage perfect for storing my car in. I was therefore looking for electric garage door openers and was wondering if anyone has any recommendations? Or it anyone has any experience with this eBay one http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=371324491179 Thanks in advance.

Kev.O Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I have a garamatic which I tried fitting to an old spring style canopy door. I couldn't get the door to fully retract and ended up replacing the door with a new retractable door. Make sure the opener works with the style of door you have, otherwise it could cost quite a lot to get it to work correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisH Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I've got a Hormann Promatic - had it installed a few years ago and works really well, no problems. As KevO says - make sure it is the right type for your door, I'd also be very wary of unbranded stuff on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 cant see the point of it on a single , might end up costing you a bit if it doesn't work , id spend the money on something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtin90 Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share Posted June 12, 2015 Thanks for all the comments, I'll have to pop buy the house tonight and remind myself of how be door opens before ordering one. I'll steer clear of the eBay one and look for a nice branded one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
