When it comes to your garage door opener, you want it to work smoothly and reliably—and, for the most part, it does. At some stage, however, the system will break down. If you’re lucky, it’s just a broken gear to replace. If not, you may need a garage door opener replacement.
LiftMaster is an option that we’re proud to offer our clients. Why? Because it:
Now that we’ve got that out of the way, let’s look at other possible options for you.
Not all garage door openers are created equal. The best option for your garage will vary based on the size of the door, your budget, and noise level requirements. For example, a large commercial freight bay can’t use the same opener as a single-car residential garage. Likewise, a rural single-family home can tolerate a noisier opener than a townhouse.
Of course, you’re not expected to become a garage door opener expert just because you need a replacement or are planning a new installation—that’s what we’re for. At Jacob’s Garage Door Repair, we have a team of highly trained experts ready to help you choose to best garage door opener for your home or business.
We service and install all major garage door types—all you need to do is pick your favorite.
If you were to peek inside most garages in the states, you’d see a lot of these. They’re effective, easy to install, and durable. The downside is that they make quite a bit of noise. If you’re aiming to sneak quietly into the house, park your car on the road instead.
If you were to ask an expert in the field, a belt-driven system is always preferable to a chain-driven one. Not only are they quieter, but they also last longer. The friction of all the metal bit working together with a chain-driven system works against you here.
This is the newest tech and also the most effective. It uses a system of pulleys, torsion springs, and cables to ensure that that the door opens smoothly and quietly. LiftMaster is an example of a Jack Shaft opener.
They’re a great option for those who want maximum durability and space. On the downside, they’re usually more expensive.
If you’re on a tight budget, the chain-driven system might seem like a better bet. If you’ve got some money to spare or could wait a little longer, the belt-driven option is a lot better. The belt-driven system costs more up-front but runs whisper quiet and will outlast any chain system.
Let’s go over the signs that might indicate that you have a garage door opener replacement in your future.
If you find yourself having to say a prayer or perform some funny dance in the hope that the door will open, you need some professional assistance. Try changing out the batteries first. If you’re lucky, that’ll fix it.
If it doesn’t, then it means that something’s wrong with the wiring. You don’t want to fiddle with that, so let us take a look for you.
Before you call the ghostbusters, check whether anyone might have accidentally activated the door. If not, give us a call and let us see what the problem is.
The first thing to try is to replace the battery. If that doesn’t work, then you’ll need to give us a call. This could be a serious issue and one that can be dangerous to fix.
