It’s very important that garage door openers must include sensors to prevent the door from falling on anything detected between the tracks while the door is closing.  While selecting the type of garage door opener, it’s very important to look at the structure of your garage, as certain architectural arrangements may present limitations on the type of opener that can be installed.  There are several types of garage door openers with different opening mechanisms set apart by noise, price, power, maintenance, and installation.  Following you can see the different types of garage door openers to consider.

Chain-Drive Openers

This is the most common and cost effective type of garage door opener. These openers use ½ or ¾ horsepower motors to lift the door with a chain. Chain-drives are also the loudest openers.

Screw-Drive Openers

These openers move the door trolley with a threaded steel rod which requires less maintenance because it has fewer moving parts than chain drives. Screw-drives are mid-range in both price and noise.

Belt-Drive Openers

These openers are similar to chain drives but use a metal –reinforced, rubber belt instead. Belt drives are the quietest openers but also the most expensive openers.

Jackshaft Openers

These openers are mounted to the wall beside the door and open the door with a motor-powered gear and chain. This system frees up ceiling space and has an optional power standby system to work during a power outage.
