Possible Causes

Up limit set too high, Door hitting stop bolts or opener rail, Bent top bracket, Weak door arm connection

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Keep clear of the top section of the door while adjusting limits.

  • Observe travel: Watch the top of the door as it opens. If it hits the opener rail or header, stop immediately.
  • Reduce up limit: Adjust the Skylink opener’s up limit so the door stops just short of the header and does not contact the rail.
  • Inspect top bracket: Ensure the top door bracket and opener arm are secure and not bent. Replace damaged brackets with the correct Skylink door arm kit if needed.
