Garage Door Opener Recommendation

[Linkless]

My house had the shaft drive models installed by the previous owner. I don't think I would own anything else at this point. I had problems with the control panels, but it's a known issue with bad circuit parts (from the time when the chinese copies hit the market) but the new ones are fine. My favorite part is the fact they have a solenoid lock that keeps you from having to worry about someone forcing the door open.

Everyone with an overhead door should have the zip-tie mod to prevent easy entry by tripping the release from outside the door. Look it up.

Basically saying zip ties are either too strong and someone can't open it in an emergency, or not strong enough for people to still break in, and this product is better.

There are many solutions, both hardware and automation, that come at a cost relative to their level of security.

Long shaft lock in the track (when you're away), Jackshaft opener, electronic deadbolt, home automation (security alerts). Just pointing out a cheap and easy deterrent. If they can't get in the overhead easily, they're either going to break in another entrance or move on to an easier target.

Sounds like a great project to do with my new Everlast mig welder.
