Is the LiftMaster 98022 Right for You?
- Garages with overhead storage racks or a car lift
- High-lift and cathedral / vaulted-ceiling garages
- Luxury and custom homes where appearance matters
- Homeowners who want the quietest, cleanest setup
- Modern garages with no room for a ceiling-mounted unit
Overview
A Closer Look
The LiftMaster 98022 is a wall-mounted jackshaft opener that mounts beside the door instead of on the ceiling — freeing up your entire overhead space for storage racks, taller vehicles, or simply a cleaner look. There's no rail or motor running across the ceiling.
It's the opener we recommend for high-lift and cathedral-ceiling garages, lift setups, and luxury homes where appearance matters. It runs exceptionally quietly and looks sleek and modern.
Why Desert Spring Recommends It
Straight from our techs — not the manufacturer
The 98022 is our go-to recommendation for custom and luxury garages, and for any home that needs the ceiling cleared — overhead storage, a car lift, or a high-lift door. Mounting it on the wall makes the whole garage quieter and cleaner, and it's the setup we install most in newer Scottsdale and Paradise Valley homes. When the look of the garage matters, this is the one.

FAQ
LiftMaster 98022 Questions, Answered
How long does the 98022 typically last?
Wall-mount openers are built to last, and because the motor isn't fighting gravity overhead, they tend to age gracefully. With a yearly tune-up, expect well over a decade of quiet service.
Can I control it from my phone?
Yes — it's myQ enabled, so you can open, close, and monitor the door and get alerts from anywhere.
Is it really quieter than a ceiling-mounted opener?
Noticeably. Because the motor mounts on the wall and turns the torsion bar directly, there's no rail vibration overhead — it's one of the quietest setups available.
Can it be installed on my existing garage door?
Most torsion-spring doors are good candidates. It's ideal for high-lift and vaulted-ceiling garages, and if your door needs a high-lift conversion to pair with it, we can evaluate and handle that too.
What warranty does it include?
It carries LiftMaster's manufacturer warranty, and we back the installation with our workmanship guarantee. We'll review the specifics during your install.
Why choose the 98022 over a standard opener?
Choose it when you want to clear the ceiling for storage or a lift, want the quietest, cleanest look, or have a high-lift garage. For a standard ceiling setup, a 6580L or 6690L may be a better value — we'll help you decide.
