I installed a Wayne Dalton garage door opener for the garage door in my basement and so far it's been trouble free up until now. Much less trouble free than the Horman garage door openings I have in my garage which gets out of sync every now and then.
I bought this from Lowes back in 2002 or 2003. It's called the ClassicDrive.
I called Wayne Dalton and their tech support sucks. They forwarded me to one of their distributors. Needless to say I'm not paying $75 for a service charge if it's something I can do myself.
The problem is the garage door opens on it's own! My wife says she makes sure the garage door is closed before she opens the door to the den. But I find the garage door open all the time but only after she closes it. So I don't know if it's actually opening on it's own or what.
With me it sometimes I have to close it 3 times before the door stays down.
I have not figured out if it's the sensors or the sensor that detects something underneath it or the infrared sensors.
I cleaned the sensors and this did not work. So I turned the sensitivity to "low" which did nothing. So I turned it to "high" and cycled the garage door about five times and the door never reopened.
So far anyway.
