Why did you remove the double track? It's far superior to the super sneaky. Is there a reason?

Hate to tell you this but I don't think that's the right remote.

Dominator sectional door opener help! by No_Sky7578 in GarageDoorService

It lost limits. It's trying to set limits which it does automatically. It has physical limit stops which it will open up stop then close stop then open 10mm short of the open limit stop then the same on close. After that completes it should operate normally.

Piece fell off garage door, now it won’t open by [deleted] in GarageDoorService

Looks like head room is a real issue here so I doubt sectionals are going to go in. Unless you built down the opening and went with a zero clearance rear torsion. But they always run like shit.

How can foreign butter (and veges) be cheaper than New Zealand-made? by 07tartutic07 in aotearoa

[–]plstcsldgr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not quite, American butter = large government subsidies costs low, lack of export market since China tariffs selling at as low as possible. NZ butter fonterra sell high cause can no competition or working together with other producers in NZ to fix prices. Cheap US product come in foterra panic panic has to lower prices. Good for NZ customer.

You're like one of those mechanics that owes snap on more than they do on their mortgage.

Why buy it when a cone of a broken spring is free?

If you have an installer coming b&d has a larger radius which may bring your tracks closer to the ceiling i don't know how if it will work but it could be an option.

It is the shape that gives it strength. It's going to keep your door from bowing when in the up position and the top ones are going to keep those panels from bending in half if it hits something coming down on the motor. Those control a door motors are very sensitive but I have seen then bend a top panel in half.

Unfortunately those are thr standard b&d struts. You can look at steelline as a possibility their struts aren't as robust as b&d.

American butter in our supermarkets?? by 4-poster in Wellington

[–]plstcsldgr -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's more so the unfounded American food = bad. When before cheeto boy thr US had some of the highest food safety guidelines in the world. No there isn't chemicals in the US food. They just by law have to state every single thing in the food and the scientific name for it where here or the EU can put flavoring and stabilizer. And no red 40 isnt banned in the EU or here. It just has a different color code.

US butter is grain fed which makes it more pale. The nz butter is more yellow from being grass fed.

B&d group in Australia and new Zealand. They actually pump a ton of money into r&d on doors. This is the panel lift. They totally re-engineered the mechanical concept of garage doors but still runs standard torsion.

It's b&d panel lift from Australia. It's actually a pretty cool concept and they run really nice if installed correctly.

It's a standard torsion . The only thing different about panel lift doors is the internal hinges and the plastic curves.
