Has anyone had trouble with the lift cylinders on the outside garage or kitchen top hinged doors? Ours BOTH cylinder mounts ripped loose from the door while the door was sitting closed. The shocks have so much pressure in them to hold up the weight of the door that they ripped the screws out. Rather than take it in mainly because I don't think I could trust a repair job to just move the mounts an inch and put back in, I used white 1/4 UHMW board that will blend in with the inside of the door and not rot or dry out and epoxied strips to the inside of the door and the inside of the garage then fastened with .75" and 1.25" screws so that the mounting screws cannot tear out of that. I sometimes wonder what goes through the designers minds when things like this are built.
