In addition to the drive mechanism, door openers mounted on walls are also called Jackshafts. One of the most recognizable characteristics of a garage door mount opener is the fact that it is mounted to the wall (not to the ceiling) either on either side of the door, depending on whether the door is left or right-handed. In order to raise and lower the door, wall-mounted openers use ropes and pulleys in combination with torsion springs. All safety features are present in the garage door openers mount. Regardless of whether you need to install, upgrade, or repair your opener, Supreme Garage Door Repairman provides all the expertise you need. Feel free to contact us if you need assistance.

Door Opener Mounts Are Good To Use, Where?

One or more of the following conditions should be met by a garage before installing a wall mount door opener:

1. 1. There is a high ceiling in your garage, perhaps 10 feet or more
2. 2. There is a cathedral ceiling in your garage
3. 3. An overhead carrier is attached to your large vehicle
4. 4. Extra overhead space should be utilized for storage
5. 5. Your garage should look clean and uncluttered
6. 6. Your opener should be low maintenance

The Advantages of Door Mount Openers

In comparison to an overhead door opener, a wall-mounted opener offers a number of advantages.

Optimized Utilization of Space

It takes up much less space to mount a  door opener on the wall. There is a convenient place for it to be mounted adjacent to the door. Garage ceilings can be used for many purposes, including adding additional storage, mounting a bag of punches, or installing a ceiling fan.

Garages with High Ceilings

The Wall-mounted opener is definitely a better option if your garage ceiling is high, say 10 feet or more. Suppose the ceilings are high, particularly if they are cathedral ceilings. It would require a minimum of two feet of brackets to hang the overhead door opener trolley and center rail. This may cause the ceiling tiles to vibrate and loosen. Vibrations and noise are also common characteristics of doors over time. Furthermore, this is a dangerous practice. An automatic door opener with a wall mount is a better choice in this case.

Garages with Low Ceilings

A low garage ceiling will leave little space for cars with cargo carriers or roof boxes, tall people, or vehicles with tall cars.

A wall-mounted door opener will be your only option in such a situation.

Maintainable

Garage Doors are moved up and down by using two guides mounted on the ceiling that allow them to be moved vertically or horizontally. In addition to these two guide rails, there is a third rail required for the overhead door opener. 

It is not necessary to install a tracking system for a garage door opener mount. Fewer parts mean lower maintenance. Garage Door Openers mounted on walls are easier to maintain than overhead models.

Security Enhancements 

Door openers that are mounted on the wall are typically more secure. There are some doors that come with an automatic deadbolt, which keeps the door from opening when the door is closed. The sound of a “click” signifies complete security.

(Special Requirements) Garage Door Openers Mounted on the Wall

There are a few requirements that must be met prior to installing a garage door opener mount.

• ● On the left or right side of the door, there should be a foot of the garage wall.
• ● It is recommended that there is a nearby power point.
• ● Garage doors must have a strong torsion spring shaft. Doors with extension springs are not compatible with wall-mounted openers.
