OGD® Overhead Garage Door Openers
Reliable garage door repair services for all types of doors, ensuring smooth and safe operation
(844) 964-0600Garage door openers are motorized devices that allow for the automated opening and closing of garage doors. They are typically controlled by a remote or a wall-mounted keypad and can be operated from inside or outside the garage. The opener unit is mounted on the ceiling or wall of the garage and connected to the door with a drive system that pulls the door up or pushes it down. Different types of garage door openers are available, including chain-drive, belt-drive, screw-drive, and direct-drive models. Each type has its own benefits and drawbacks in terms of noise level, durability, and price. It's important to choose the right opener for your garage door based on factors like the size and weight of the door, as well as your budget and personal preferences.
What's the ideal garage door opener for your needs?
Four primary types of garage door openers are available.
Chain Drive Openers
These are the most common and affordable type of garage door openers. They use a chain to pull or push the trolley that moves the door up and down. They are durable, but can be noisy.
Belt Drive Openers
These use a belt instead of a chain to operate the trolley. They are quieter than chain drive openers and are a good option for attached garages or living spaces above the garage.
Screw Drive Openers
These use a threaded steel rod to move the trolley that raises and lowers the door. They require less maintenance than chain and belt drive openers, and are generally quieter than chain drive openers.
Direct Drive Openers
These use a motor that moves along a stationary chain to operate the trolley that moves the door. They are the quietest and most reliable type of opener, and are also low maintenance.
