Here is a quick look at the highlights and a few tips you should know that will help with your installation process. Before you get started, it may also be a good idea to seek help if you aren’t comfortable locating studs, using hardware and tools, and using other handyman and DIY skills.

Motors for garage door openers are hung using a harness most commonly constructed with perforated angle brackets. The first step is to build the harness itself. Once the harness is measured and constructed, it is time to attach the harness to the ceiling stud. It is also important, as the attached video suggests, to have a good stand for the motor when it is time to attach the garage door opener motor to your new hanging harness. That is all there is to it, and good luck with your garage door opener installation.
