Description

Three Genie 6170H-B Professional Line garage door openers stored inside the garage after the garage door installer discovered a sizing error. The installer arrived Monday morning to install the garage doors but found that Hershberger’s had ordered the wrong size doors — 8 feet wide instead of the correct 7 feet wide for the garage openings (doors are 9 feet tall, which is correct).

Visible Elements

Setback Details

The garage door installer left the three openers on-site but took the incorrectly-sized doors back. New doors will take approximately one month to be manufactured, delivered, and installed due to custom sizing requirements.
