| About Me: | Anatomy of a Garage Door
I have taken some keen interest on my garage door after it was subjected to some fixing a few days ago. I called the garage door repair las vegas crew and was referring to the garage door and he was asking me which part. I didn't know if I was putting in sarcasm by telling in a slightly deflected tone, ';the door itself';. He replied in a very professional manner and told me, ';Ah, I see. So there are no problems with the opener?'; That's when I realized that a garage door is comprised of two key elements: the actual door which could be a series of panels or one whole board, and the garage door opener. The opener actually is also classified by its main mechanism of providing a force to open the door. The three drives are provided by a belt, a chain, or a screw mechanism. I owned a belt-driven one, as it runs much quieter than the rest of the models. |
