Which Garage Door Opener Is Best For You?

There are 3 Main Types of Openers:

Chain Driven Openers- Chain drives used to be the most popular garage door opener. The motor is pulled by a metal chain. Chain drives tend to be much louder than belt drives and the price between the 2 motors has narrowed to a point where the difference is no longer significant. If your garage is detached or the noise does not bother you and you want to save a little bit of money, this may be your best choice..

Belt Driven Openers- Belt drives are the quietest garage door opener. The motor is driven by a rubber belt, which often comes with a lifetime warranty.They are considered the premium motor in the space.

Screw Driven Openers- Screw drive openers use a lifting device that runs on a threaded steel rod, rather than a chain or a rubber belt. These openers tend to work best in locations where the weather and temperature is constant throughout the year. In areas with a wide range of temperature throughout the year, a screw drive opener is not recommended.
