In this video I show what I think is the best bang for the buck garage door opener out there. This garage door opener is by Genie and the item number is 2514192. This is a 3/4hp, belt driven opener that does not have wifi capability or battery backup. This unit comes with 2 car clickers, a nice wall clicker and a nice wireless keypad as well as the safety beam system.
I was specifically looking for a 'simple' garage door opener that didn't have the wifi capability or battery backup. But, although simple, I still wanted all the extras like, for example, the wireless keypad. This unit was the only one I could find that had all I was looking for and at a good price.
The opener that I replaced was a Genie brand and I'm pretty sure was original to the house which is why I wanted to stay with the brand. If that thing could last all these years it's a pretty good indication that a new one would last pretty long as well.
I purchased the opener in this video at Lowes. The item number is 2514192. Here's a link to the actual item on Lowes' website: www.lowes.com/pd/Genie-0-75-HP-Ultra-quiet-Stealth…

Just replaced my 30 yr. old door opener yesterday with a similar model and really love the quietness and the features!
-
I just picked one up on clearance at Lowes for $47.00. Can't wait to get it installed.

One thing about Genie's that I learned through bitter experience -- make sure your door is absolutely perfectly balanced or you are going to end up replacing the circuit board. Also, have a surge protector. I got the Quiet Max 1000. Genie customer service was not nice to work with at all when things went south. My older Quiet Max was quieter than the new one sadly, but the new one is still way quieter than a Liftmaster that I was told would be just as quiet as a Genie (yeah, I got lied to).. I also really like the C channel that the Genies have. Nothing is perfect, but the Genie openers are quieter than most others. I have an old Phantom by Overhead in another garage, and that's pretty quiet too. Not sure it's still made thuogh.

Ditto. I just replaced an old Chamberlin screw drive with a similar Genie belt drive unit and was amazed at the difference.

Thanks for the steps.

I just replaced one just last week. I replaced it with a new Genie belt drive 1 1/4 Horsepower. You can't believe how quiet the new opener is. You have to look at the door to make sure it is actually working. I also like the fact that the wall button you can just turn on the light when you go in the garage.

I bought one of those Genie 2055 openers. Can I program my old remotes to work with it?
-
Did you change the rollers to nylon or what rollers did you keep or change? Thanks Great Video!!!!
-
I just replaced my 24 year old one car garage opener with a genie 7055d 1.5 hp belt drive and new nylon rollers and it sounds amazingly quiet. Im getting the 2 hp for the 2-car next and cant wait for those quiet arrivals 😅

Ive had my belt drive with battery back up smart craftsman opener for 5 years now. Its still silent, my old screwdrive opener was obnoxious loud.
-
Nice house! Will you make a video of the house price in that area?
-
Do you think it would handle a 16 foot door?
-
It sounds like this guy hit the jackpot. LOL
-
Just bought a dumb garage door opener today and it was the genie 7055 to replace an older chain drive genie model
-
I replaced my 22 year old Craftsman (chain drive) with a Genie belt driven and it's so much quieter! Two remotes and built in battery backup if power goes out 😎

You need a deadbolt with a combination key pad for your front door. Redundancy is always good piece of mind.
