Due to getting a garage lift (post pending) i had my standard 2 car garage door raised to afford the max usable room. They left the exist track in place up to about 6 feet. They replaced the rest above with what you see in the pics raising the final open door position to just a few inches from my 10 ft ceiling. Cost for me was around $400 less opener, but i had to replace the entire spring rod/pully assembly. So yours might be less. You could do this yourself except raising the door does increase the load so your exist springs may not cut it and figureing the tension of the new springs would require trusting a vendor. I do everything i can, but this wasn't worth the hassle and the Wayne Dalton installer i use does free service calls for just about forever. FWIW wayne daltons garage doors are excellent, although a bit pricy.
I also had them install a fantastic opener, the Liftmaster 3800 jackscrew unit. From my research, this is the best unit available. It slides right on the shaft itself, has a great service record, and an awesome automatic deadbolt. It is nearly silent and nothing hanging anywhere. It's around $300 on ebay and could easily be self installed. Only downside is it comes with a bells and whistles keypad with temperature and time. I replaced it at no charge with a "lower" level unit with less complexity that i like much better. I plan to relocate the gov mandated electric eyes to a corner somewhere where they will not be in the way, just eye to eye. The opener itself still has the usual reverse on obstruction feature, the eyes are just double liability for them. The eyes easily get out of alighnment and stop function.
