I bought this unit. But the installer says that the assembled rail is longer by about 4" than what my garage can take. How do I make it shorter?

As this strikes me as a very unusual situation, I recommend calling Chamberlain technical support at 1-800-528-9131. More contact info at: http://chamberlain.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4003/session/L3RpbWUvMTQyNzQ4NjIwMS9zaWQvS0pvX1NuaW0%3D

I think the rail comes in sections that bolt together. You may be able to take one off and shorten the drive belt. If that is too short, they may sell an smaller extension. As assembled, mine was almost the same length as the existing opener.

There are two pieces that join in the middle to make one long rail. I don't think it adjusts. I'm not sure if you can purchase other rails to attach to it or not.

If I could make a suggestion, I purchased mine for an AR10 and found I needed more height because of the bolt, so I also purchased a 1/2" rail extension and it worked great!

You just have to loosen the clamp thumbscrew and it will come off the extension and slide onto the main rail. that is the easiest way to set the height even with the bed of your saw. Just slide then up next to the saw. Too bad I can't attach a picture or I could show you.

These particular rails are fairly limited in terms of vehicle width. I actually bought the wrong length rails and had to return them. I would definitely advocate double checking the model numbers to make sure you are getting the right size.

Good morning, I do not have the length of these racks, but it is not necessary because they can be adjusted +/- a couple of inches. They did not fit on my 2012 rogue, not because of the length but because of poor manufacturing. the rear rack was just a bit twisted and this implied I could screw it on one roof rail, but not the other as the matching holes were about 3 inches off the holes in the rail; bending the rack to meet the holes would have put stress on the rack and very likely break it, so I returned the racks. In fact I did purchase 2 sets of these racks from 2 different Amazon vendors. the first set did not work because of the problem just mentioned and I returned it, the second set was exactly the same from the same manufacturer in China and had the same problem, I also returned it. One vendor reimbursed racks and shipping and return, the second did not and I had to file a complain with Amazon. at the end the racks were reimbursed but not the return shipment. I still don't have a rack on my Rogue and found out I don't really need it! Good luck

You might need to alter it a bit. Hitch, not hitch vault. For instance, I had to purchase a reducer and have an inch cut off at a machine shop. But nothing major. Hope this helps.

I have the same problem but, funny enough, not with the rail itself, which is quite tight on mine, but with the screw that tightens where the rod from the light stand is inserted.

mine is shorter than that but I am using pvc pipe to make an extended frame for the top think it will work

Sorry,I don't really know if there is a safe and sound way to do that. I have purchased down rods a long as 60 inches if you need more than that I would go to the Hunter website and pose your particular problem with length and see if they have a solution.Best regards,Michael

Not sure. I had it installed and never looked in the box. The installer did have to supply the rail if that helps.

On the top or front location? I looked up the specs and it looks a little tight. On the top location, it looks like the 5.25" bay rails might be in the way. The front didn't look like it would fit at all.

I have one of the 18" Rev-a-shelf units and it is 17" across the outside of the rails. Looks like you should have a quarter inch to spare.

No it does not come with a longer rail it comes with the one in the picture, but you can add a rail on the opposite side.

That is exactly how mine was installed. I hired 2 knowledgeable workmen to assemble. It took about 6-8 hours and workmen tools. Sorry I can't help any further.

My husband installed ours and it was also too long. He used the lines where it showed to cut it, it worked fine.

The mounting parts are at both extremes of the gate. They can't be adjusted so I don't think it can be mounted on anything shorter that the length of the gate unfortunately. I had trouble getting it to fit on my stair rail (height-wise) because it's almost exactly the same height.
