Take the tour ×  My garage door opener has finally failed and I
need to buy a replacement. I'm looking for suggestions on the
pros and cons of different types of openers.  Here are the
details of the current setup:    1. Fiberglass 2-car garage
door. (It is about as basic as you can get, no windows, no extra
weight, etc).    2. It is NOT located anywhere that noise is an
issue (below a bedroom for example).    3. I am not opposed to
chain drive as that is what I have, but I've been looking at
either belt or screw drive. Smooth beats noise in this case, see
#2 above.    4. One car has an integrated opener button and the
other car will need a remote. There is also a need to add on a
couple extra remotes for friends/family access.  What type of
garage door opener would be best for this situation?
