Thank you for sharing your heartbreaking story. I am so sorry for your loss. I would pursue the issue of liability of the contractor or installer, because their carelessness should not be repeated. I would also alert the local media to tell your story so you can reach a wide audience and those who have used the same installer would be notified of the danger possibly at their own home.
I live in a house over a 110 yrs old, with a very old garage, so I do not have an automatic door, but I was just visiting my parents & refused to let the dogs out of the car when they pulled in the garage until the garage door was all the way down. My mother scoffed at me, but I said I was not taking my chances with a 3 1/4 lber and a 4 1/2 lber. I'm not sure how tall they are.
I will be emailing your story to others to scream out the warning, And that added on the thread by others.
I hope you will stay around YT |
