Would the small version work with your typical aluminum overhead garage door? I'm haven't been able to find anything made for them yet.

The flanges are set up for installation in doors of a certain thickness, so you may need to put wood blocking around the pet door if installing in an uninsulated garage door to accommodate the flanges in the pet door. In an insulated garage door it may be fine as is.

I would think that it works with any garage door that has an automatic garage door opener that is controlled by a remote control, but, I do not know for sure. I would suggest that you check with Overhead about that.

If you have a 10 foot garage door, you need the extension to open the door so I was not worried about the size of the box. It was awhile ago since I installed the extensions and throw the box out.

I am trying to find that out as well. When you get the answer, please post something. I purchased this item and it is not compatible to my Liftmaster garage door system. Go figure!

Yes, it will work. I have something similar and because of the bracing under the table I mounted it on the front as close to the end as I could. I only put the opener itself in when using it so it doesn't bother me too much having the mount there permanently.It's not difficult to mount. Being a woman I took the project on and installed it myself. I love having it. No regrets at all

Yes it works great on my overhead garage door. Best part if you have your car keys you have your garage door remote. Get a extra one as a back up just incase and keep it in a combination lockbox outside of your home. Incase you loose your keys one day.

It works on a hollow core door (where we put it); however, I bet it would work on an aluminium door. You may have to put caulking around it to make it more secure. I believe someone said it did in the customer reviews also.

It will work with any opener. It is a separate unit, unrelated to the type of door opener. This link describes a different model but has many similar components. It will give you and idea of how it works. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx0IYb97zJs

Yes, it will fit, but will stick out. To be precise, it is not 2.5" wide, more like 1.75. My door is a little more than 1.5" wide.I have side sticking out on inside of garage and it works great. Since product is solid metal, it will not bend as long as where the base lands is flat. The trick will be where you screw; you will not be centered, so risk of loss of integrity. Get longer screws at slight angle. I added a few more and set to be in middle of door. Be sure to pre-drill new holes prior to installing. That should do it.

We Used the SUSPA 45 on My RV, for a Smaller Door.Depending on your Application, Lifting Weight Requirement, We Would Highly Recommend this Manufacturer.

Yes, my minor issue was that my insulated garage door was too thick. Easy install on any thin door. Great product.

Sounds like you are doing it correctly..Your Stanley hand help openers may not be compatible with the garage door opener you have. Read the instruction carefully to see if it is...Good luck

i am not sure if will work. This model looked nothing like the old one so i was sceptical. I matched it with the model # of my door opener and once i received it and tried it, it worked great and is even better than the old one. I am very happy I took the chance.

Sorry, can't help. I use mine on a single aluminum door, and it works great!

I actually have this installed in an insulated overhead garage door that is metal shell with styrofoam-type insulation in middle. Works fine without any issues.

I am sure it will work but you need to go to www.sommer-usa.com to buy the 5ft extension rails. Here is the link. http://www.sommer-usa.com/store/p14/5_ft._rail_extension_kit.html . The 1HP can lift upto 1000lb. Maker sure your garage door can not weight more than the requirement buy the sommer. I think you need to buy the rail from this website, not sure they will sell the rail separately. http://www.diy-garage-door-parts.com/buy-online/sommer-550-synoris-garage-door-opener/

I have a sectional door and this is by the quietest opener I have ever had. I love it. I think this will work with either door, as long as the rails and track are set up correctly, but I am not 100% sure.
