The Benefits Of Automated Garage Doors
With the wet and wintry weather out in full force, the last thing you will want to be doing is standing out in the cold trying to open/close your garage door. Automatic garage doors provide the ideal solution as you won’t even need to step out of your car when operating the door to enter or leave your garage.
Manually opening and closing a heavy garage door can be rather straining and takes a great deal of effort, and for seniors or those who are physically unable to lift the weight of a garage door it is totally impossible to perform such a task.
Remote control
They are usually operable with a remote control which provides superior convenience as well as protection against burglars trying to force the door open to steal your belongings or gain entry to your home. Therefore, being able to operate the door by the touch of a button is a handy and reliable way of opening and closing the door while protecting the contents of your garage.
For added security, there are electric door openers available which have a feature that allows the garage door to close automatically after you have left; the perfect solution for those of you who can be rather forgetful at locking your garage door when leaving your property!
Benefits of an automated garage door
Taking the step to have an automated garage door installed brings with it many benefits including:
- Convenience
- Safety
- Security
- Affordability
Automatic garage doors are also known for their durability so they will remain fully functional for many years to come, making them a worthwhile investment. For continued reliability, they often don’t require as much maintenance as regular garage doors, as they are not put under the same strain and don’t get pulled off the tracks. If you look after your garage door and carry out regular maintenance on its mechanism, you may not have to spend as much time or money fixing it compared with a manual system.
This automated garage door design also saves a great deal of time so you don’t have to worry about rushing before work trying to lift your garage door open; simply sit back in the comfort of your car and let the automated mechanism do all the hard work!
Environmental impact
Some homeowners may worry about the impact using electric door openers may have on the environment, but they needn’t worry – only a certain amount of energy is used when the garage doors are in operation, and this usually lasts for approximately 15 seconds at most.
