Great opener

Posted by EBT on Oct 30th 2015

Bought 2 of these for garage remodel. Shipped to house quickly and without incident. Easy to install with 2 people. Quietest opener around and great wireless functionality for monitoring. IPhone app is very easy to connect and use. Highly recommend product and Gatehouse.

LM 8550 - simply the best

Posted by James Foster on Jun 30th 2015

I just purchased my third one of these, not because one failed, but because I moved. This is pretty much the first thing I put into a house. As a single man, it helps me avoid leaving the garage open when I'm gone. Being able to see it's status and control it is just great. Even without the connectivity it's a premium opener. Quiet and powerful and battery back-up reliability.

Nice to work with

Posted by CJC on Oct 28th 2014

Long story short I had to return the openers I bought from them and it was just past the return date because I ordered them well in advance for my new house. They worked with me and exchanged them for the ones I needed and were able to send me the replacements quickly. I got a real person when I called, they were very helpful. I will order from them again.

Installation A Cakewalk

Posted by Skip W. on Dec 23rd 2013

Installed the 8550 alone in a couple of hours, including taking down the 20+ year old Liftmaster which was becoming unstable. New unit fit in perfectly with no issues. Instructions are well written and leave few questions. Opener fired up without problems and the automatic setup functions worked perfectly.

Had no problems programming a second remote control and a wireless digital keypad, as well as my wife's 2013 Subaru Outback with Homelink. As a matter of fact, programming these devices has been much easier than I expected.

Opener is extremely quiet and smooth in operation. It is still much too early to determine long term reliability and durability, but my expectations are for another 20+ years of trouble-free operation.

Great Product

Posted by Dave on Dec 25th 2012

It took me half a day to install this on my own. Hard to do when I don't have many tools. But now that its installed, it works great. It's very quiet. And te motion detector is a handy feature.

Garage Door Opener

After reading the good reviews, decided to go with gatehousesupplies.com. We were very pleased with the quick shipment and arrival of the parts for our new garage door opener. It made the replacement process go very smoothly and in time for the winter weather.
