Researching And Selecting A Remote Controlled Garage Door Opener
A Remote Controlled Garage Door Opener is a wonderful thing to have on those cold winter nights or during a raging thunderstorm. Getting out of your car can be unpleasant on even a nice day and, when the weather is bad, is just downright nasty. This no longer has to be a problem as your garage door will open quickly and easily with a remote opener and units can be customized to meet your family's need at little additional expense. Opening and closing your garage door to insert or remove tools and toys is also a breeze thanks to this device. No longer will items be left in your yard or driveway for you to trip or run over. A garage door eliminates excuses for this occurring. The first thing which needs to be determined when choosing a remote controlled garage door opener is which type of system to buy. Choices include chain drive, screw drive and belt drive systems. Chain drive systems are usually the least expensive, starting at around $100, and use a chain to lift and lower the door. This style tends to be the noisiest. Screw drive systems have a mechanism which runs along a threaded steel rod and moves the door. This style is the easiest to maintain as it has the fewest moving parts. Prices start at approximately $150. Systems which use a belt drive are the quietest on the market yet do have the highest starting price, around $200. Other things to consider when purchasing a remote controlled garage door opener include power, safety, speed and security. Double doors need a minimum of a 1/2HP motor and systems which come equipped with a soft start/stop feature often last longer. Safety and security should be top concerns. Look for units which offer rolling code technology as this prevents unauthorized people from obtaining access to your garage. Also, look for models with pre-installed safety beams which will stop the door's progress in the event something is in the door's path. Speed is also something many look for in a garage door opener. This is a personal choice and you will need to decide how slow or fast you would like your door to raise and lower. Look for options in a remote controlled garage door opener such as remote keychain transmitters, fixed controls and security lights. You can have as many options on your system as you would like. Just remember the price will go up with the number of options chosen.
