Most garage door openers feature a carriage that runs on a rail or along a tube from a motor to the front of the garage, and an arm that connects the carriage to the garage door.

Popular chain drive garage door openers connect the motor to the carriage with a chain. In a belt drive garage door opener, a belt connects the motor and carriage. In a direct drive garage opener, the carriage travels along a large, threaded rod.

Installing a garage door opener is a moderately challenging task that can be accomplished in an afternoon using essential tools you probably already have in your home collection.
