2 Craftsman's: Chamberlain screwdrive and Guardian chaindrive

[@TheGarageGuy]

Beautiful! Very rare and I love those units you can never find those things anywhere!

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

Amen to that! I miss these!

[@HipHop123]

Nice openers! I like AC better than DC. I also miss the older genie drives.

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

Yes! The old style Pro machines are some of my favorite Genie machines. That’s why I saved that Pro90, even though it doesn’t work right. I intend to fix it and give it life again;

[@HipHop123]

@@TheGarageDoorGeek Sounds good to me!

[@GarageDoorGuy59]

That screw drive is amazing. Love it!

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

Yes, one of my favorites, of course. 😁

[@gunnarbondank3893]

For the opener, where does it say Sears craftsman?

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

@@gunnarbondank3893 it’s been a while since I shot this, but the screw drive *may* have said Sears, but I know the chain drive didn’t.

My Wayne Dalton Pro Drive is a Z-wave model, what does that mean??? What can I do with it?

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

It means yours already has hardware in it to enable smart home control with ZWave. You’d have to have a ZWave hub, and since ZWave is a mesh network, you’d have to have other ZWave devices between the hub and the operator. As far as what all in the operator that enables, I have no idea. I have a ZWave 3220 (I think that’s the number) that have been meaning to connect to my controller and see what it gives. I should do that this weekend.

Thanks!

Hello I have a clopay duralift 8000 that was in my recently purchased new home . Are these worth putting money into or should I purchase another thanks

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

They are very uncommon so parts are incredibly hard to come by, plus they no longer meet current code. As much as I hate to say it, it's time for a new machine. Shoot me a DM.

[@garagedoorman2639]

Dang there both super quiet

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

Cause I know how to do maintenance. 🤣

[@butterbean8351]

Do you prefer torsion springs or do you prefer springs on the both sides?

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

Torsion springs. Less moving parts.

[@cyberlight22]

no more Chamberlain made screw drive openers :( if my Genie goes out I may have to get belt or chain drive AC. Genie only makes DC now:(

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

Dude, you have DC now. 😆

[@cyberlight22]

@@TheGarageDoorGeek I know but I like the sound of AC because that’s what my first opener was

[@brandenrivers205]

I bought two liftmaster 3220’s and they are quite and fast 👍👍👍👍

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

@@brandenrivers205 I don’t think they’re fast, but they do move at a decent speed. 🙂

[@TBHD724]

I think we all know which one is better LOL

[@summereveryday5239]

Was this video taken in Canada? Those doors are Steel craft and they’re very rare in the United States

[@CarolinaDoorGuy]

Those are Overhead Door Thermacore 194 Series.

[@summereveryday5239]

@@CarolinaDoorGuyThose 2 garage doors are not made by overhead door I know that the doors are made by steel craft

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

@@CarolinaDoorGuy No, they’re not. They are actually SteelCraft.

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

No, I’m in Seattle, about 2 hours from the border, so we have a few SteelCraft dealers in the area. They seem like decent doors.

[@ParkerTheGarageDoorGuy]

I hate guardians

[@TheGarageDoorGeek]

At least this wasn't a DC unit. I'd have probably been replacing it.
