Overhead door question

[Tom Brown]

I have a garage with low ceiling height. Door = 9x7. Does anyone know how much height I need above the door opening for the springs/pulleys/shaft?

It has a one piece, non-folding door right now.

Typically you need 12" but with a low headroom kit and a capable installer it can be done in as little as 4"


For the record, low headroom kits suck

It's almost impossible to get the top section to seal the opening with a LHR kit. You need an opener to shove the door closed - which is tight to fit in.
