Pick An Openerās Drive Type
The reason some garage door openers last longer than others is due to their drive type or how they mechanically operate. The main drive types are:
Chain Drive Openers
- Affordable direct drive opener
- Most popular
- Widely available parts and models
- Follow through with maintenance for extended use
Belt Drive Openers
- Direct drive opener
- Ultra-quiet operation
- Soft closing and opening
- Durable construction helps make it last longer
Screw Drive Openers
- Most durable
- Suitable for Commercial use
- Made up of simple parts
Jackshaft Openers
- Side-mounted
- Requires the least amount of maintenance
Direct drive openers operated by a chain or belt are the most popular among homeowners. The jackshaft opener includes more technologically advanced features, while the screw drive opener is made up of simple, durable parts for long-lasting wear.
Garage Door Opener Power Styles
Understanding the distinction between an openerās power style and how your garage door opener achieves its power helps you identify your garage door needs.
A rundown of two distinct motor types:
The two primary power styles found in garage door openers are AC and DC-powered openers. Both current types are popular among residential and commercial properties, and both transform electricity into motion for the motor, but they achieve their power differently.
AC-Powered Openers
Alternate current, or AC-powered garage door opener, is a bit more advanced due to the current that goes through a switch board, and goes to and from the motor continuously, changing directions. Specialty doors and commercial doors benefit from an alternating current, so it can provide powerful output and durability.
DC-Powered Openers
Direct current, or a DC-powered motor is becoming more popular in residential garage door openers due to their improved, newer power style. DC motors are known for their quieter operation and programmable settings for smartphone apps.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which garage door opener is the best for cold weather?
Make sure your garage door opener has a backup battery in case of a power outage and enough horsepower to lift your garage door if the ground freezes. If youāre worried about your garage door opener not making it through a bad storm, or have lost power on it before, connect with our team for a garage door opener service appointment.
How do you program a garage door opener?
All garage door openers have a ālearnā button that you can press and hold down, so it can program with your remote. They should also all have a reset button if youāve just moved into a home with a smart garage door opener. If youāre unable to locate the button, every garage door opener has a visible model type and number for you to look up its ownerās manual online.
Does my garage door opener fit my garage door?
Most garage door openers work with all sizes and configurations of garage doors. But if your garage door is particularly heavy, like a wooden garage door or double doors, it will need a garage door opener with extra horsepower. Also, if your garage door is tall or you want to install a high-lift garage door, you will need an opener that accommodates the height.
