Which Type of Garage Door Opener Is Best for You?
Precision Installs 3 Main Types Of Garage Door Openers
Chain drive openers
operate using a sturdy steel chain, offering durability but generating more noise compared to other opener types. They are typically more affordable and are a great choice for detached garages or homes without living spaces directly next to the garage
Belt drive openers
use a steel-reinforced belt for smooth and nearly silent operation. Just as reliable as chain drive openers, they are ideal for homes with living spaces attached to the garage, ensuring minimal noise disruption for occupants.
Jackshaft openers
are wall-mounted on either side of the garage door and connect directly to the torsion bar to control opening and closing. With no belt or chain, they operate nearly silently. These openers are an excellent choice for garages with overhead obstructions, such as ceiling beams, that limit available space.
Frequently Asked Questions

Belt drive garage door openers are the quietest option available. Known for their smooth operation and dependability, they are typically backed by lifetime warranties, though warranty details can vary by manufacturer. The only downside is their higher price compared to other types.
Chain drive openers are generally the most affordable option. They are durable, reliable, and often less expensive than belt drives, making them a popular choice for detached garages.
Screw drive openers use a threaded steel rod to move a lifting mechanism that opens and closes the door. They are powerful and require minimal maintenance due to fewer moving parts. While newer models perform well, older versions can be noisy and may experience issues in cold climates
A direct drive (jackshaft) opener mounts to the wall beside the garage door, freeing up ceiling space. This allows for maximum storage and is ideal for low or cathedral ceilings. These openers are known for being quiet, reliable, and efficient, making them a great choice for those looking to optimize garage space.
