The LiftMaster 197LM Wire Channel is a low‑profile surface‑mount raceway designed to route, conceal, and protect garage door opener accessory wiring for a clean, professional installation. Ideal for tidying runs to The Protector System photo eyes and wall controls, this wire cover helps keep exposed bell wire secure along walls or ceilings, reducing the risk of snagging, abrasion, or accidental disconnection. As an official LiftMaster accessory, it’s a practical replacement part or upgrade for new installs or retrofits, and it’s broadly compatible with LiftMaster, Chamberlain, and Craftsman openers that use standard low‑voltage control wiring in residential or light commercial applications.
Because the 197LM manages conductors only, no programming is required. Route Class 2 low‑voltage accessory wires exclusively and do not mix with line‑voltage circuits; follow the opener’s installation manual and all applicable electrical and building codes. This simple wire management solution supports a neater, safer, and more durable cable path for garage door opener accessories, making it a go‑to choice for installers and homeowners seeking a clean wire cover and surface‑mount raceway compatible with common LiftMaster systems.
