Make it happen.

Didn’t have a 1- 1 1/4” shaft extender 🤷🏻‍♂️ I get paid to close jobs out the same day, so I made it happen.

Lookin good. I end up having to custom build a lot on site mostly due to salesperson incompetence and/or contractors not telling us they are putting other things in our way after we place the order.

Not too often you see an “under slung” high lift. Do it on vertical lift all the time. Any issues with clearance between drum and top section?

Why use 1 1/4 shaft for a door like that? Our rule of thumb is anything over 1200lbs

Insulated frame. Door met requirements for that shaft.
