    Security

    When it comes to security, older garage door openers are considered to be more at risk to theft attempts, as opposed to newer models. This problem relates to the fact that older model remote controls can operate with a “fixed code”. There are now devices that can be used by thieves in order to “capture” these codes and use them to create their own remote. Modern remote controls operate by using random codes that they produce each and every time the control is used. Because of this, thieves are unable to duplicate the code needed to open your garage door.

  • Noise

    If you are currently using a garage door opener that operates with a chain drive, then you know what we mean by “noise”. This can be especially irritating when someone arrives home late at night, when others are asleep. To remedy this, you can have a garage door repair company install a new openers that is either belt or screw-driven.

  • Battery Backup

    Modern garage door openers can operate with the use of a battery backup that can open and close your door even in the midst of a power outage. This can prove to be extremely convenient, especially in cases where the opener also provides a source of light inside the garage that can operate on the battery.
