How to setup for when you don't have the traditional top to bottom closing garage door

I have the Chambelain garage door opener working on my garage doors which are two doors that open towards the outside and then close towards the inside. This means that the MyQ app thinks that my garage is open when it's really closed and thinks that it's closed when it's really open. I'm hoping there is a simple setting to correct this?

  • I assume you mean barn door style doors.  
    Reverse the trolley (drop the chain/belt, slide trolley off, rotate trolley 180 degrees, replace all).
    The photo eye safety system needs to reverse a closing door when the photo eye beam is interrupted.  Also, an obstruction in the path of a closing door needs to reverse the door to the open position.  Test both of those features before you reverse the trolley (probably working incorrectly now and will probably work correctly when the trolley is reversed).  If needed, contact a LiftMaster door dealer.
