Genie Chain Drive 750 3/4 HPc Garage Door Opener w/Battery Backup - Heavy Duty - Operate your garage door when the primary power is out - Wireless Keypad Included, Model 7035-TKV,BLACK

Bought this to replace my 31 year old Overhead Door unit (got my money's worth out of that!). Straightforward installation which took 3 hours, good instructions, it helped that I was able to use previous wiring. Only delay was figuring control unit mounting, but had enough parts to pull it off. It is quieter, works fine, and I'm happy to have a battery backup. Even if it needs maintenance or even replacement after a few years its a great value!UPDATE 9/6. I liked the first one so much I bought a second to replace the other garage door opener, it was an even easier install the second time. I had trouble getting the program button to work on the first unit, contacted Genie customer support, and they gave me a work around (take the cover off and press the button on the circuit board). That worked, but they went above and beyond and without prompting shipped me a new unit cover to fix the button alignment. Great customer support!

My husband decided that he did not want a garage door opener after I had placed the order. As I tried to process a return for an item that has not even been taken out of the vehicle I find out that it is not returnable. I am a very loyal and quite prolific Amazon shopper. This experience may alter my loyalty.

Quiet motor. Battery backup included. Works great. Key pad access is wireless and easy to setup. Have not tried cell app remote yet. Older access remotes not compatible. Inside garage wired button has wireless lockout that blocks all remote wireless access. Very handy if remotes left in car overnight.

When I opened this unit up I almost returned it when I saw how small the DC motor was. It is about half the size of the old induction motor in the unit which I replaced because the optical sensors were not working and it had no remotes anymore. This kit is complete, has good paper directions and web videos available, good job! I cheated and taped the optical sensors together just so I could get it going, as usual it took longer than it should have because I am not the sharpest pencil in the box. The light weight of the head unit is really appreciated when you are on a ladder mounting the unit. Finished assembly and, WOW, what difference, plenty of power and soooo smooth. It even has a soft close function. Even with the optical sensors taped together the pressure sensor is just perfect, the lightest touch and it reverses yet never false triggers. Great electronics. The remotes are amazing, the inside switch has many functions, the best is where you can disable the remotes with small slide switch. You get 2 remotes and a outside remote wall mount (no wires!) with a keypad that you set to your code. I also tried out the battery backup, works great and is a nice feature to have if your power goes out. Good value and well thought out unit. The smoothness and power still amaze me in this small package, this old school guy got schooled!

Our old door opener was nearly 30 years old, so time to replace it. I hired someone to install the new unit taking him (working alone mind you) about five hours part to complete of which required taking out the old unit. The new Genie unit seems pretty solid and well made. It's also very quiet. I mean really quiet.The garage is under a large bedroom and you could always hear the old unit when in use. Not not, you can't hear a thing. So far we're pretty happy. Oh, you do have to purchase your own bulbs. I suggest the Genie shielded LED also available through Amazon.
