REASONS TO UPGRADE YOUR GARAGE DOOR OPENER
The average lifespan of a typical garage door opener is 10 to 15 years or more.
For some people keeping an outdated garage door opener long past its prime is tempting.
However, replacing an old unit is the best choice.
In the more than 2 decades that we’ve been working with garage doors openers we’ve seen them change in some pretty fundamental ways.
Perhaps the biggest change is that today, with the right hardware and software installed, you can monitor and even operate your garage door from halfway around the world as long as you have a smartphone and Internet connection.
Not everyone will need or want to check in on their garage door when they’re on vacation in Bali but, if your opener is getting on in years, there are other good reasons to consider upgrading it.
These include:
The Auto-Reverse Mechanism
The auto-reverse mechanism has been the law for some time now.
This is an essential safety feature that can prevent accident or injury.
If your opener does not have this we would strongly urge you to upgrade to one that does.
Enhanced Security
Older garage doors openers used a fixed code. These make the door – and by extension your house – vulnerable to thieves.
Today’s garage door openers feature what’s called a ‘rolling code’ which changes each and every time you use the door.
Quieter Operation
As an opener ages it tends to get progressively noisier.
A new opener will be several orders of magnitude quieter than your old opener, especially if you choose to have a belt drive opener installed.
Backup Power
In the past when your area would suffer a power outage you were unable to use the automatic garage door.
Many of today’s garage door openers however, are available with battery backup power, putting an end to that type of major inconvenience.
