While there are many reasons to install garage door openers, perhaps the most important one is convenience. After an exhausting commute, it’s often a relief to just press a button and pull right into the garage, rather than exit your car to pull open a heavy door. Whether you want to install a garage opener for the first time or upgrade to an advanced smart garage door opener, Ace can help you find the right option for your needs with a diverse assortment of models from brands like Chamberlain and Genie.

Types of Garage Door Openers

Overhead garage door openers can be installed professionally, but many of today’s do-it-yourself models are both economical and relatively easy to set up. And as technology improves, the operating sound is not as noisy. 

There are a few types of garage door openers available to choose from, including:

  • Chain drive: The most common type, a chain drive garage door opener works via a chain that pulls the garage door along the track. Chain drive models tend to be economical options.
  • Belt drive: A belt drive garage door opener is similar to chain models. But by using a belt, these openers are slightly faster and much quieter. 
  • Direct drive: A direct drive garage door opener has a chain that runs along its track, but it remains stationary when the door opens and closes by using a moving motor. This type of garage door opener is usually the quietest option, and it has only one moving part, reducing wear and tear. 

Many garage door openers come with discreet keypads that can be installed outside of the garage for added security and ease of entry. You can also find ones that include garage door opener remote controls. With one of these openers, you can open and close the door without getting out of your vehicle.

Upgrade to a Smart Garage Door Opener

To upgrade your garage, consider a smart garage door opener that can connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Because it’s a Wi-Fi garage door opener, a smart model makes it possible to check your garage door using an app on your mobile device. With just a few taps, you can find out if your door is currently open or closed from anywhere. Smart models may also provide other information,
