In the included video, you can watch how one of Garage Door Repair Chicago’s expert garage door opener installation technician installs a brand new LiftMaster 8355W Garage Door Opener. Here’s our synopsis of exactly what happens in the video.

LiftMaster 8355w Garage Door Opener Installation Process

First, we swap out the old Liftmaster to the brand new 8355w LiftMaster half horsepower garage door opener, meant to work along with the 16×7 insulated garage door.

As he starts to get to work, our garage door opener installation technician detaches the old rail that holds the opener in place from the main bar, and removed the brand new LiftMaster 8355w garage door opener from it’s safe packaging and places it in a safe area on the floor.

Then, our technician attaches the brand new rail to the new garage door opener – rather than attaching the rail to the ceiling of the garage first.

Then, he positions the opener according to the correct dimensions, attaching the new rail to the wall, and affixing the garage door opener box to the ceiling.

Then, our technician swaps out the old garage door opener wall control unit for the brand new components of the LiftMaster wall control unit. After attaching the garage door opener to the ceiling using brackets (the rail is already attached to the wall,) we swap in the new wall control unit.

Track Lubrication and Garage Door Photo Eye Installation

After doing this, our technician makes sure to lubricate the drums, tracks, and rollers of the garage door. It’s totally essential to lubricate your garage doors every 6 months if you want to keep it working properly. Then, our technician swaps out the old safety photo eye sensors with the brand new ones meant to work along with the LiftMaster 8355w garage door opener.

After completing this step, you can see that the brand new garage door works perfectly. You can watch and see with your own eyes how it successfully works for the very first time; a testament to the extreme talent and experience that Garage Door Repair Chicago’s technicians provide to every customer.
