I am going to replace my Genie garage door opener that has gone bad. It is chain driven but I will switch to belt. I am thinking going Genie to Genie for ease of setup however in taking a good luck and looking at Youtube for instructions I think this bracket is completely different. Many mention extenders rails if you have 8 ft doors. Mine are 7 ft doors but this looks like an extender or they just changed the mounting bracket? Should I not go with Genie if I have to change out brackets anyway? Any help would be great. I am somewhat handy and think I can get this one.
