Garage Door Opener Installation
Some situations call for an immediate garage door opener installation. For example, the damage to your garage door opener is no longer remediable. Without a doubt, you need a replacement garage door opener. Other reasons you need a new garage door opener installation are:
- No parts are available because your garage door opener has been phased out.
- Your garage door opener sensors are missing and we don’t work with the model you have.
- You want to upgrade to a more advanced garage door opener with WiFi, spare battery, and better security features.
- Your garage door opener is old and worn out.
Common Garage Door Opener Issues
Remote / Keypad Issue
A garage door remote or keypad lets you control your garage door opener remotely. If this device is damaged, you won’t be able to operate your garage door opener. Check to see if there is faulty wiring, battery issues, and programming defects to determine the cause of the problem.
Grinding Noises
With the exception of chain-driven openers, garage door openers normally operate quietly and smoothly. But if you hear unusual grinding noises, you could have broken gear, loose chain, or unlubricated door opener parts.
Faulty Reversing Feature
It’s dangerous to operate a garage door opener with a faulty reversing feature. This could be caused by faulty sensors that cannot detect obstructions on the garage door path. Since your garage door will continue to go down even if something is on the way, you could suffer injuries or property damages.
Emergency Release is Pulled Down
Garage owners often forget to reconnect their door opener. Because of that, their garage door won’t open automatically. If your garage door emergency release is pulled down, you can only raise or lower your door manually.
Types of Garage Door Openers
Professional Garage Door Openers from LiftMaster®
To maximize the benefits offered by garage door openers, you should carefully evaluate your options. Each garage door opener type has its own advantages and disadvantages. Learn more about them below.
Chain-Driven
Garage Door Opener
A chain-driven garage door opener is the earliest door opener type. It consists of a metal chain that moves a trolley, which is the mechanism that raises or lowers your garage door. One downside to this type of door opener is that the metal-to-metal collision and vibration can generate noise.
Advantages of a Chain-Driven Garage Door Opener
• Affordable and highly reliable
Belt-Driven
Garage Door Opener
Belt-driven garage door openers have similar mechanisms to a chain-driven opener. However, instead of a chain, it uses a rubber, fiberglass, or polyurethane belt, thereby eliminating the noisy operation.
Advantages of a Belt-Driven Garage Door Opener
- Smooth and silent operation
- Durable
- Low-maintenance
Wall Mount
Garage Door Opener
A wall-mount or Jackshaft garage door opener is popularly used in commercial garage doors and residential high lift garage doors. It is set up on the side of the door and does not connect to a trolley to move your garage door. Rather, a Jackshaft door opener controls the torsion tube, which then opens and closes the door.
Advantages of a Wall Mount Garage Door Opener
- Save ceiling space
- Simple and attractive design
- Quiet and fluid operation
- Low-maintenance
