Which Type of Garage Door Opener Is Best for You?
There Are 4 Main Types of Openers
Chain Driven Openers
Chain drive openers are one of the most common and reliable types of garage door openers. They operate using a metal chain to move the door along its track and are generally more affordable than belt-driven models.
However, chain drive openers can be quite noisy, making them less ideal if your garage is close to living spaces or bedrooms. At Garage Doors North Jersey, we usually recommend other options since the minor cost savings may not justify the added noise. Additionally, unlike belt drives, the chain is not covered by a lifetime warranty, and the motor tends to run louder.
Belt Driven Openers
Belt drive openers are considered the top choice in the garage door industry for their reliability and quiet performance. They use a steel-reinforced belt to smoothly lift and lower your garage door, offering the same strength as a chain drive but with virtually no noise.
At Garage Doors North Jersey, we recommend belt-driven openers for homes where the garage is attached or near bedrooms. The near-silent operation makes them perfect for residential settings. Though they cost slightly more than chain or screw drives, the peace and comfort they provide make them well worth the investment.
Screw Driven Openers
Screw drive openers operate using a threaded steel rod instead of a chain or belt to lift the garage door. While they are simple in design and typically more affordable, they perform best in regions with stable temperatures year-round.
Since North Jersey experiences varying weather and temperature changes, Garage Doors North Jersey generally does not recommend screw-driven openers. They tend to be slower and noisier compared to belt or chain drives, making them less ideal for most homes. If you’re looking for smoother and quieter operation, there are better options available for your North Jersey garage.
Jackshaft Openers
Jackshaft openers are mounted on the wall beside your garage door rather than on the ceiling. They connect directly to the torsion spring above the door, offering a clean and efficient design.
At Garage Doors North Jersey, we recommend jackshaft openers for homeowners with high ceilings or those who want to maximize overhead space for storage or lighting. While they may cost slightly more than traditional ceiling-mounted openers, their modern look, quiet operation, and space-saving benefits make them an excellent choice for many North Jersey garages.
