How to Install a New Garage Door Opener

Video Source

Overhead garage doors are almost always controlled by an electric garage door opener. This makes opening and closing the door easy and safe. However, different issues can lead to problems with your garage door opener. This video will show how to replace your door opener.

Some garage doors were installed decades ago and don’t have all of the modern features of contemporary garage doors. They may not have a keypad for entry. They may not have a laser sensing system to reverse the door while it’s closing to protect someone who unwittingly walks under it. These are all important safety features to have.

Your best bet will be to contact a professional overhead door contractor. They will know who to disassemble the lines and garage door opener, and have the best recommendations for new door openers.

New garage door openers can have motion detected LED lights for energy efficiency. They also use belt rails instead of metal chains. This makes the opening and closing action a lot quieter. Some even have wifi that can allow you to open and close your door from your phone when you are out of the house.
