We are looking to replace an older CM8600IC/A that currently has an installed 8-foot extension kit. Will that extension kit be compatible with the Signature Series 2 HPc Screw Drive Wi-Fi Smart Garage Door Opener? Or will we need to replace the extension kit as well?
No, unfortunately the rail design changed. So, you will need to replace the unit and the extension kit, here is a link to the Extension kit which is also available through Home Depot. Extension Kit (to 8') for 3 piece, Screw Drive C-Channel Rails.

I bought the 2hp genie garage door opener,and the expansion kit for 8 foot door.I am putting it togather and I cant figure out how the screw fits to the screw on the C section it seems to be short. I got A then K then B then another K then the square extention piece then another K then C but the screw doesnt reach. And when I look at extention directions the picture shows the carage on rail B
The small extension screw piece goes in between the section B and C (middle and door end section). The small extension channel piece goes at the door end of the rail. If you still find it not reaching you may not have the bearing block and metal slot at the head end of the rail lined up. Make sure these are lined up and mounting bracket tongue is inserted into both the channel metal slot and the bearing block slot.

I just bought the model 1155-SUV opener, I have a 9' foot door. I was told by the retailer that i can buy an extension kit for the 9' door
Sorry the 1155 model will only work up to a 7 foot tall door, or 8 foot tall with extension kit (purchased separately). Taller than 8 foot tall doors require a professional unit purchase at a Genie Pro dealer or the 6172 wall mount unit will work up to 14 foot tall sectional doors.
Thank you. -

can you use more than one exstension kit to maybe raise an eleven foot door I have on older model an it worked
No, more than one extension kit cannot be added to any of our garage door openers.

I have an older Genie garage door opener... has to be at least 20 years old as was present when I bought my home (built in 1973) in 1999. It is what I believe you call a screw drive model... I could get the exact model number from my files but don't have them available to me at this moment. Lately the screw drive has been separating where it connects to each other... think there are 3 to 4 sections. As the weight of the door transfers to the next section, it separates and slides away from the first section driven by the motor. In looking at this kit... "Extension Kit (to 8') for 3 Piece, Screw Drive C-Channel Rails"... I see what appears to be a little sleeve/tube and/or half sleeve/tube. I suspect their purpose is for the full "sleeve" to slide over the connecting point between the screw drive sections holding them together... the half "sleeve" to snap onto the shaft to hold the full "sleeve" in place over the connecting point. If so... where can I buy just these parts and are there any assembly instructions you can share that confirms/tells me exactly how to use both the full and the half "sleeve"? Thank you.
It sounds like you are missing the clip and collar that connect the screw drive ends. In this part, look at the photo showing how they connect. If so, you will need the clip part and collar. Part numbers, 19807A04.S and 19806A04.S.
We are happy to help you troubleshoot this further via our chat tool or by phone. -
