What to look for in a garage door opener.

QUIET
The “Silent Drive” Garage Door Opener is the stateoftheart machine to both protect your family and reduce the noise pollution in your life. It gets its name from the virtually quiet operation of the unit when compared to standard chain or screw drive garage door openers.

The chassis of the 1.5 HP motor is insulated to vastly reduce noise. It also features rubber chain guards that virtually eliminate metal on metal grinding that produces loud clatter.

SECURITY
Look for “rolling code technology” which protects your family and your possessions from “code grabbers” who can literally steal ordinary garage door opener codes out of the air.

Rolling code technology features 120 billion codes in this one unit. Each time you open your garage door, the unit rolls the code over so that it never uses that code again. There are enough codes in this machine to last 60thousand years!

The unit also comes with a three button pad on the opener. The first button opens up the garage door, the second button a second garage door and the third button can be programmed to turn on a light in your backyard as you arrive home.

CONVENIENCE
It also features a keyless entry pad, which works on a preset code, installed outside your garage. This allows your children, the maid or the neighbors who need to water your plants while you’re out of town to get into the house without a remote opener. It can be programmed with a different code for each member of the family. And when you give a code to the neighbors, once they use it once the garage door cannot be opened again using that same code.

SAFETY
“Silent drive also has several safety features, including safety reversing sensors to protect small children , pets or careless adults. Infrared beams mounted 6” off the floor will automatically reverse the closing door if the beam is broken by someone walking under the door.
