Do you know what the purpose is of the metal covering that runs along the top inside of the garage door? It protrudes about three inches outward and is about 1 inch wide. You can see it in the pictures on this thread. The arm goes over it. It appears to cover a metal rod or cable that connects the first set of rollers. Can it safely be removed or reduced in size? It may make the difference of a rubicon fitting in my garage at 74" to this low point when garage door is open. Any input you could provide would be appreciated.Take this for what it is, advice from a garge door installer. Be careful adjusting the arm, or limits on your opener. Some adjustments can be detrimental to the life, functionality, and safety of the door itself. Also if you open the door too far you can unspool or dump the cable off of the grooves on the drums they wrap around causing several issues that will need to be fixed by a qualified technician. They are dangerous. Be safe everyone. Just my 2 cents.
