will this opener handle a 10' wide x 8' high door?

Yes. It is strong enough, but would require an extension rail. Chamberlain 8808CB 8-Feet Belt Drive Extension Kit. Amazon carries it.

If it is compatible it will do a good job. I searched high and low for the same product for 8 months before I found this at Amazon. The original door opener company had gone out of business. Problem solved

According to a Google search it will. I also watched a Youtube video that made it quite easy to replace. I did not have to drop the entire opener.

Hi Steve, The Direct-Drive garage door opener from Amazon only works with 7' & 8' foot door. Ken

It depends on how heavy your gate is, there is a weight limit on this opener. You can get a opener with more power than this one.

Oh Heck Yes. This opener is plenty powerful. I have a HEAVY 1960's era Wooden 16' x 7' door and it handles it like a champ. They don't make them much more powerful than this one. I am a picky buyer, and I absolutely LOVE this opener.

Mine is 8.5 inches high 4.5 inches wide 9 inches deep. Hope that helps but it is for a 10 slot block

I did not need an extension, if your door is 10' you will. I had a 1/2 horse opener that wasn't strong enough for a wide door so the extra power has been great!

It should work fine for that. It opens up to 4 inches wide. This is an excellent product that has worked very well for me.

That full opened, it is 10 inch they will open. 8 1/2 inch would be at the max for them to have good holding power.

Maybe 1/2 - 3/4 inches. You can adjust the door opener to compensate for any difference in clearance issues. Adjustment is made at the motor part of the opener.

The can opener is 9" high, 4-1/2" wide. It will handle cans up to about 7" tall.

I have it on 9' high x 20' wide door with no problem, but in can't see a practical limit other than weight of door. So on a single door, could go quite high. Since there is no track, not height limited like traditional openers.

The opener works fine on large cans as long as there is sufficient vertical clearance. For an especially tall can you may need to position the opener close to the counter edge.

My doors garage doors are 7' tall and this opener works just fine with 'em.

I would check the Sommer website for that height. I know they have add-on rails for 10 ft high doors, along with the chain extensions.
