Ouch!
And while you are checking the bolts on your opener, make sure you have
the overhead door springs strung with a safty wire. When one broke on my
garage, it was embeded in the back wall!!! Imagine if it hit a child,
car, anybody or anything important.
Garage door safty, think about it and while you are at it, check and
tighten the bolts in those disappearing attic stairs.
