We ended up with a Chamberlain, not specifically because I wanted one
but because the outfit that did the garage door install sold them, and
though it took a while I found someone who didn't think what I wanted to
do was either odd or a problem.
We needed the door tracks to follow the 4/12 ceiling slope up, and we
needed to keep the door opener off the ceiling, in order to preserve my
usable-but-less-than-I'd-like lift headroom.
The door opener is mounted vertically on the wall next to the door, with
the motor at the top and the end of the track bolted to the foundation,
and it pulls up on the bottom of the door via a bracket that's
apparently an off-the-shelf Chamberlain piece. Works really slick.
John.
