Chain-drive are one of the most common types of opener since they are relatively cheaper compared to the other types.
Due to their popularity chain-drives also come in a wide range of varieties to choose from.
Most are easy to operate and are also reliable.
However They might be noisy and not suitable especially if your garage is attached to your home
Belt-drive openers are similar to chain drive in terms of design but instead of using a hard metal chain, the motor is driven by a toothed belt.
The use of a toothed belt makes the belt-drive openers quieter compared to the chain-drive.
screw-drive openers use a threaded shaft which is turned by the motor drawing the carriage along the shaft as it turns.
They are quiet like belt-drive openers but require frequent lubrication and proper maintenance regularly.
These are garage door openers that turn the main chain drive on its head.
They are fixed and highly tensioned in such a way that the motor moves alongside while pushing or pulling the carriage.
They are very quiet and reliable.
When looking at garage doors the two most important things to consider are the size of the door and the type of insulation.
The size of the door is essential if you want to install a new door for your new home, replacing your existing garage door or repairing it.
Insulation, on the other hand, is crucial if you are looking to cut energy bills, reduce street noise and make your home warmer or cooler depending on the weather.
Single garage doors are ideal for residential garages. Most of them have a measurement range of 8 x 7 feet, 9 x 7 feet and 10 x 7 feet.
They are suitable for standard homes with a standard car. However, if you have a more than average vehicle in terms of size such as a bobtail or an RV and if you want large storage space then you can consider other garage door sizes.
Double garage doors are ideal for trucks and other large vehicle. Regular double garage doors can measure between 12 x 7 feet, 14 x 7 feet and 16 x 7 feet.
You can also request customized lengths depending on your needs from your manufacturers.
Different types of insulation have the capability to increase the energy efficiency of your garage door.
The most common types of insulation include.
This is where rigid boards and several rolls of highly reflective aluminum foil is attached on two sides of insulation material.
The insulation material used may include polyethylene bubbles or cardboard among others.
This is one of the most flexible types of insulation which is mostly stuffed into exterior walls. The common insulation material is fiberglass reinforced by paper or foil to deter vapor and air particles from getting inside.
Its insulating values range from R-3 to R-4 and its cost may start at 30 cents per square foot.
The work of garage door springs is to balance the weight of a garage door for easy opening and closing which can be manual or automatic.
The springs are made of high-tension springs which have a limited lifespan and may lose their effectiveness with time.
Most of the springs have different quality levels expressed in terms of cycles or use.
For instance, a garage spring door can have 10,000 cycles while another one has 20 000 cycles.
These numbers may seem huge but because most garage doors can be opened on overage four to five times a day makes it clear that garage spring doors have a limited life span.
Before we look at springs repair we first need to understand the types of springs available in the market. There are two main types of garage door springs namely extension spring and torsion springs.
Torsion springs are heavy-duty and are usually mounted parallel to the door, just above the garage door opening.
Extension springs, on the other hand, are long and light-weight and are fixed perpendicularly to the door and above the horizontal portions of tracks.
