Neither.
The garage door track was raised and a non overhead opener is mounted to the front wall of the garage. This maximizes available ceiling height.

If I can find a digital camera, I'll post a pic to try and clarify.
I think right now the 996Turbo is on top and the bride's 993 Targa is on the floor....still in winter storage.

That sounds like what I need.

Any pics will be well appreciated. I believe you can assure us there will be no Cayenne in the frame ... : )

I'm off to Google garage door openers! The excitement never ends!

What Cayenne?
I never owned a Cayenne. Ask PCNA Legal in Atlanta, I am sure they will confirm this fact.

The 'spring' for the opener is mounted flat against the front wall, not overhead.

If you would like specific pictures, just let me know.

Hi George,
I have not yet selected a lift or installer. Yes, I am still in need of advice.
