Do you know if I can use this oppener in a double door garage? Please let me know. Thanks

Yes. I have it on my double door. You just have to make sure the counter springs are set so as to not over tax the unit.

Yup. Opens my 19 foot wide door without effort. Really, as with any opener, first make sure your door is balanced and springs properly adjusted.

I don't think it is big enough to heat a 2 car garage. I used it on my closed in porch that is over my 2 car garage (which has a large ceiling) and it didn't do a thing. It was in the 30 degree temperature. Just not big enough for that large an area.

I'd go to Garage door butler's web site and ask that question to know for sure or call a garage door installer. I'm betting there's a way to link the two doors with one opener if you don't mind them both opening at the same time, assuming you have only one garage door opener.

I would not recommend it unless it was outside in a somewhat sheltered area. Even then I wouldn't do it. It is perfect for a garage or indoor.

I'm sorry, I don't really know, I use mine the garage but not for anything that is vibrating or moving. I would imagine as long as it has a solid base attachment it would be ok, but not sure.

1. This senor works up and down. It has a plunger that drops out of it about 2" to know if the garage door is open. (plunger is up in this picture)2. I now have a second senor not working so well. I'd be very surprised if this will work at 500'. My longest of 3 is only 45'. Maybe they work better if they are not around electrical noise like wifi and power lines.3. Look for something else.

I have two concerns with your question.First, I would not put the unit in the garage due to carbon monoxide gases.Put the unit outside in a safe area.Secondly, Use only a power cord that is heavy duty, like one used for window air condition units

if you split the electrical output from the unit and run an electrical wire in to each garage opener I see no reason why it would not work. however both garage doors will open and close simultaneously, with each push. if that is what you are looking for then yes, it will control both doors as if they were one unit. hope this helps

I purchased one awhile back, but for my garage, indoors. However, I am sure you could use it under and eve, but I am not sure I would have it exposed to the elements, ie rain / snow getting in it, you may be asking for bigger problems.

I have one in the garage and it works great out there. In Michigan we have very cold weather.

It does not put out enough heat for a 2 car garage. I say don't buy it. The one I bought I melted the plug. I replaced the plug and that one melted too. The cord got hot to the touch so it went into the trash. It should be recalled as a fire hazzard.

I personally wouldn't use them inside the garage, because I have gas cans, mowers, weedeat eaters, etc in there, and don't want to take the risk of anything getting ignited. I've read some of the reviews, where other people use these things inside their homes, and I wouldn't recommend that, either. I would think that these would probably be effective in the garage, as you mentioned, with the door open, just be careful when you're lighting them, if you have fuel cans etc around. By the way, I also prefer the PIC coils to this brand, but have bought this brand a couple of times because the price was so low. I feel this brand breaks as you're trying to separate the coils more frequently than the PiC brand.. Probably just my opinion!

I doubt and risk may not be worth it. If I were you I'd switch my garage door to a sectional. They are pretty inexpensive these day and function so much better with efficiency. Your Skylink unit too will work.

I would say probably not very well if your garage gets that hot. This isn't an air conditioner, it's just a fan so if you want something that can cool down a garage that hot, this isn't the fan for you.It will probably feel like the hot air is just blowing around your garage.

I have used it in my garage - but only in areas where my dogs can't reach. I also used it on my patio/decking area as well - but again, I was very careful in areas where the dogs could reach.

HI RAD, no I have the two units in the picture and have one installed at my front door and the other in my detached garage (about 125 ft. thru a building) Works great.

If it is properly installed with a 220V power source, yes. In the garage and outside as well. This unit works inside or outside. Best to mount in shade if outside.
