FOLLOW THE APP(BILT) FOR INSTALL!!!
5 Stars
FOLLOW THE APP(BILT) FOR INSTALL!!!
Opener is great! First things first though, if you plan on or are required to build the mount up top I’d highly recommend stopping at the hardware store and get some(10 of each just to be safe) 1inch bolts, washers, lock washers, & nuts). That’s the only thing it doesn’t come with. Fortunately I always keep a container of those around for situations like this.Secondly, and almost more important than the last, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE APP(BILT) THEY GIVE YOU THE QR CODE TO!!! I followed the paper directions and it got me 95% of the way through. The things I complained about that gave me hell, they ended up being in the app guide as part of the general process. If I could go back, I’d keep the paper on hand just in case, but follow the app description to the T!! I would have saved at least an hour, probably 2.That being said, if you do that, it is cake.After I finished the first time following just paper instructions, I hit the button after I plugged it in and it went the back way and stopped when it hit the stopping bolt and the LCD screen said something like, “Motor/opener senses too much pressure, Error 4-2. Refer to Users Manual.” I looked in the users manual and read EVERY single troubleshooting option and none of them were 4-2 and NONE had anything to do with that error. It was 1am so I gave up and went to lay in bed, I opened that app(BILT) for the first time and figured I’d give it a chance and went ahead and went through it. Right off the bat I was mad at myself for not using it to start off with and thought I may figure it out because it’s SUPER EASY/user friendly. Sure enough it had stuff in there that is NECESSARY to successfully complete the install. It was a Mother’s Day present so I rolled my sleeves up and went back downstairs, did what it said and whalaaa! Works perfect and it’s super quiet!I drove my gals car down the street and hit the button on the remote that came with it and it worked from at least 50yards away(didn’t try any further). That’s solely why I got her this, the old one you had to almost bump into the garage door and wave the remote around just to get it to open. Also, they say don’t use LED lights because it will weaken the remote distance, kind of a downer but unless you wanna dish out another hundred+ then I’d say this is a win!
