The most common type of garage door opener is the chain drive. This works by attaching a sprocket to the end of a chain and then attaching it to a drive shaft. This process requires precision or else the garage door could travel off its tracks when opening or closing and possibly damage the opener, door, or track – or all three. The belt drive garage door opener operates in almost the same way as the chain drive, but with a much smoother and quieter operation.

Several factors can cause your garage door to open and close in an erratic manner and/or close unevenly. The door and opener system have several components that can be adjusted or repaired to get your door operating properly.
