It is important to use the correct garage door opener arm and connecting bracket.
Things to look for when choosing the correct garage door opener arm:
The number one consideration is to determine how the garage door arm connects to the garage door opener. This may be via a pin and clip system or like with this particular arm, via a spring loaded latching mechanism. Some arms are connected to the garage door opener with a simple bolt and nut set up. The majority use a clevis pin and cotter pin or hair pin connection.
Here is an example of a clevis pin – CLEVIS PIN
In that type of connection, the cotter or hair pin is removed, then the clevis pin and then the arm is free of the garage door opener.
In regards to the other end of the arm, the end that connects to the garage door, this is typically done with the same type of clevis and pin combination. There are some other connection types but the clevis and pin system is by far most common.
It is extremely important that the door bracket, that is the bracket that mounts to the garage door, that the garage door opener arm connect to, is of the proper type and is correctly installed. Improper connection of the garage door opener arm to the garage door can result in severe damage to the garage door and can most certainly be a safety issue.
Here are two types of door brackets:
