Garage Door Openers: The Power Behind Your Door

Great Brands, Quality Products, Fast Service

Modern garage door openers offer best-in-class performance and innovative features to simplify your life and keep you connected to your home. When choosing the best new garage door opener, there are several important considerations, including safety, power, drive type, speed, compatibility, and accessories. Not sure where to start? Let us help you select the opener that is just right for your home.

Leading Garage Door Opener Products

Chain Drive Garage Door Openers

If you’re looking for a heavy-duty garage door opener that will provide reliable performance year after year, consider a chain drive opener. Operating on a metal chain, these openers provide maximum lifting power. However, keep in mind that these are one of the noisier options for new openers because of the moving metal parts. 

Belt Drive Garage Door Openers

For smooth, quiet, long-lasting operation, we recommend belt drive garage door openers. These openers run on a rubber belt, reducing vibrations for nearly silent operation. The smoother operation also makes them long-lasting and easy to maintain, giving you the best bang for your buck when investing in a new garage door opener. 

Wall Mount Garage Door Openers

If you have limited ceiling space in your garage or need to lift a heavy glass or wood garage door, consider a wall-mount garage door opener. These are installed beside the garage door and attach directly to the springs, giving you maximum lifting power and out-of-the-way storage. 

Screw Drive Garage Door Openers

Screw-drive garage door openers offer a powerful and versatile operation even in extreme temperatures. However, they do tend to be the noisiest option for garage door openers and need additional maintenance to keep the threaded rod in great shape.

Best Garage Door Opener Accessories

Battery Backup

A battery backup is an essential garage door opener accessory, especially if you live in an area that sees frequent severe weather or power outages. An emergency battery backup allows you to operate your garage door opener even during a power outage, ensuring your family doesn’t get trapped in or out of the garage. 

WiFi-Connectivity 

To bring your garage door into the modern era, WiFi connectivity is a must. Smart garage door openers allow you to monitor and operate your garage door from anywhere, giving you peace of mind that your home is secure. You can even upgrade WiFi garage door openers with voice control and video monitoring. 

Remotes and Keypads

With a wide range of remote and keypad options, we can find the best solution to suit your lifestyle and the needs of your garage. Whether you need a universal remote, a keypad with rolling access codes, or an opener that can handle multiple remotes for your large family, we have the resources to help.

Our FAQ

Common Answers To Your Questions
  • What is the Life Expectancy of a Garage Door?

    The average life expectancy of a garage door is 15-30 years. To help extend this lifespan, we recommend scheduling annual garage door maintenance. This keeps your garage door parts running more smoothly, delaying the need for repairs or replacement. You can also wash and repaint your garage door exterior periodically to get the longest possible lifespan out of your garage door.

  • What Causes Garage Doors to Break?

    The two main causes of a broken garage door are lack of maintenance and accidents with vehicles. The most important garage door maintenance steps include lubricating the rollers, bearings, pulleys, and springs once a year and making proper adjustments to the counterbalance system to maintain the door’s balance. If an accident happens with your garage door, it’s important to (269) 443-1093">call quickly for repairs. We offer same-day garage door service near Portage & Kalamazoo, MI!

  • How Long Do Garage Door Springs Last?

    The average spring breaks after 7 to 12 years with typical usage, lasting 10-15,000 cycles, depending on the type of spring. A “cycle” is one full opening and closing of the door. If a garage door has two or more springs and one breaks, then you should have all the springs replaced to maintain proper balance. Be sure to check our Garage Door Spring Repair page for more information.

  • What Garage Door Maintenance Do You Recommend?

    Although you should always let a certified professional take care of major garage door repairs, there are some garage door maintenance steps you can take.

    – Lubricate your garage or overhead door track every six months using a silicone-based lubricant.
    – Clean the weather stripping with vinyl cleaner and lubricate it every few months.
    – Monitor your garage door operation, listening for unusual noises or movements that could indicate a problem.
    – If you have a painted door, periodically repaint the exterior to help protect it from weathering and update the look of your home.
