I have a 9 foot tall door. Do I need to buy this 10 foot extension kit and just set the up/down accordingly?

Yes that's correct. Not sure about other makes and models but this will work for the Craftsman belt driven door opners

I have a 10 foot tall door and I had to buy the extension for my door to open all the way up, so if your door is 9 foot I would think you would have to purchase the extension too for your door to open all the way up. Standard garage doors are 8 foot.

I've only done the 8ft without the extensions by myself in a small awkward room... But in doing that I have had it at 9ft high with the panel on and I can confidently maneuver it around to get it just right. If you got a clean smooth floor I bet you can do it with ease

I did not need to use an extension for my install and I have granite counter. Measure the thickness of your counter to see if it matches

I think I expanded mine to 72in, it comes in 4 pieces (5 with the door gate). I dont see why not? I think you can use any amount of pieces you want. I had to use all 4. You can adjust all of them. So im almost positive it should work for you.

Should be no problem. It comes with an extender. I never use it and my ceiling is about 9'

If the door is over 7 feet in height you will need the extension. It replaces a shorter part of the bar and the belt. Its easy enough to install - but I would prefer that they sell a model for 8 foot doors - as I am paying some for a part I can't use.

Hi Michael, you could do this you would just end up with some extra 4-in-1 adapters and elbows. You could also just buy the 10ft extensions (item #39623).

As you can see it comes w extenders , check the max height and how low it will be w the lowest extender. Plus you twist it up ward so if you use 1less or no extender I think you should be ok. For my place I need the complete pole before even locking it to ceiling.

Ooops! I was thinking 8 foot ceiling. Standard garage doors are 7 feet high. So, you'll need the extension for an 8 foot door. Sorry for my previous incorrect answer.

There isn't really an easy way to run an extension. It is designed to have the top plate mount directly to an electrical box, then the light dangles on cables below that. The light comes with 4 adjustable cables, I used about half of the available length for my 9' ceilings.

The 10 Ft refers to the distance from the motor to the door. You may have to move the motor back a foot which is not difficult

This opener is designed for a 7 ft door. There is an extender kit you can buy to fit 8 ft doors

7' without the extension kit. I bought the extension kit and I used it for my 8' doors.

Yes, I installed this with a 9.5' ceiling. The only option you have is to purchase longer curtains, 96". The support rod is very weak at the connection point, so extending this would only compromise it more. Unless you can fabricate your own, this is the only option available.

Yes I used an extension kit with this product and it worked great. You can just keep adding sections until you get to the length you need.

As it turns out 9' is the distance I mounted mine at. So It should work for you.

This is not enough. You could buy an extension that curves down at least 6". It's easily obtained from any hardware store. But the way it is now - the answer is "NO."
