Opener Types We Install

Belt Drive Openers: The quietest option available, belt drive openers use a rubber belt to lift your garage door. They're perfect for attached garages or homes with bedrooms above the garage. Portland homeowners love belt drive openers for their smooth, whisper-quiet operation.

Chain Drive Openers: Known for durability and affordability, chain drive openers use a metal chain to operate your door. They're slightly louder than belt drives but extremely reliable and cost-effective. Ideal for detached garages and budget-conscious homeowners.

Screw Drive Openers: These openers use a threaded steel rod to move your door. They have fewer moving parts, requiring less maintenance. Screw drive openers work well in Portland's climate and are a good middle-ground option.

• Wi-Fi Connectivity: Control your garage door from anywhere using your smartphone
• Battery Backup: Operate your door during power outages
• Smart Home Integration: Works with Alexa, Google Home, and other systems
