I have two 12x14 insulated overhead doors will these openers handle that large of a doors?

I am no expert, but don't believe size of the door is at issue. Size shouldn't be an issue if properly balanced by springs....

If the doors are adjusted correctly they would work fine. The doors have to be balanced and the springs need to be adjusted so you can lift the doors with almost no effort. Its a good idea to download the instructions for the Liftmaster website before buying.

Probably....I have these on 12x12 insulated doors and they don't strain at all. Make sure your existing doors are perfectly balanced first!

I would think so but with the full size door, there would be more leverage to forcibly open the door, also while the magnets are very strong the doors material might cause an issue (ie steel door)

They sell bigger ones. Some as large as for garage doors. Also for sliding glass doors.

It shouldn't be a problem as long as your springs are adjusted so there is very little weight on the opener. I have a 18" door and it moves it no problem, although it takes very little effort to lift my door because the springs are adjusted properly.

Some garage doors are taller than others. This opener is designed for a lower door. My doors are 8 feet and considered high. I purchased 2 of these for my 8 foot doors. They work beautifully but I do lose about 10 inches of overhead clearance when they are fully open. It's not a deal breaker for me because I'm not driving an SUV or some other taller vehicle. You can buy an extension to accommodate a taller door but for me these are perfectly fine. The bottom line is if you purchase this for an 8 foot door your door will only open about 90% unless you get the extension. My 8 foot door opens just over 7 feet.

Garages come in all sizes but should normally have at least 12" of clearance above the opening of the garage door. If you have an old enough garage you may not have enough ceiling height for the opener motor to be mounted above the vehicle

Highly unlikely. This doesn't negate your built in safety reverse built into every garage door opener. However Skynet will keep your door open so the sentinel will find you quicker.

Yes. I just put two on a 60" x 22" door and they worked great. If you don't have the weight of any glass one should be adequate.

Check the weight of the door. size isn't a issue if it's within the lift weight. 650# max.

Yes, provided your rafters are spaced in excess of the diameter of the unit. Reference the units specifications and diameter.

Depends on how high your garage ceilings are. If they are 10 feet then clearance is not an issue. If they are 8 feet then the opener will hang low and COULD be a clearance issue with some higher profile vehicles.

Depends on the patio size,,,10 x10 ok 10 x 20 maybe 2 would do,,,overheads would work better.......

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.

It should. If the magnets keep the doors together, I believe the handle will withstand the load. Best wishes-

Great question!! I believe they will as the lift gate itself didn't really change in the design. But they do work great.

I would think if your door has one closer, not two, you should be fine. I have one of these on a wood storm door and another on an aluminum storm door, both with one closer and they work great.

Probably not, but try calling Genie and ask them. It does not work with Overhead Door which is made by Genie.
