garage door opener
Remote panel lifter
A garage door opener is a motorized device that opens and closes a garage door, typically operated by a remote control, wall-mounted button, or smartphone app.
The mechanism usually runs along a track mounted to the ceiling, pulling or pushing the door via a chain, belt, or screw drive.
Modern openers often include safety features like automatic reversal sensors and rolling security codes.
The garage door opener broke, so we had to lift it manually.
