    No, unfortunately the extension kits can only be used for doors taller than 7 foot, up to 8 foot tall.  Above 8 foot tall requires either a professional unit, you can contact a Genie Professional dealer using this locator below, or the model 6172 will also work up to a 14 foot tall door, other specifications apply I will include a link for this also.
