I've installed 4 of these units across two households and they are absolutely next level in terms of getting rid of the chain, screw and/or belt driven head-ends and supports above your garage door. Installation was ridiculously easy and it took longer to pull down the old opener lol. I think I may have paid around $400 for those kits a few years ago but they included a backup power supply that bolts on to the bottom of the opener so it will still work during a power outage. That's a really handy upgrade that you might want to verify could be a better deal as a kit rather than buying it separately. Just my two cents...

Just to add to the torsion bar comment - If you have a Wayne Dalton Door, chances are you cannot use this.

Are you talking about Wayne Dalton torquemaster doors? Yes, this would need the adapter that Genie has for $250, which makes this not a deal. Cheaper WD doors aren't torquemaster, just a normal torsion spring.

What are the other types?

Also, I'm guessing the cost of the opener itself is minor compared to the installation and this is not DIY? What would it cost to replace a standard hanging opener on average?

Other style is extension spring, which is what I have. Not sure what installation cost is, I have DIY'd replacements of openers for both of our doors.

300-1000
Price varies wildly depending on location, state and local laws governing residential work, and your current opener setup

Many variables, hit up youtube and decide if you want to DIY. If paying a shop to do it they will supply the opener.

These are commonly known as jackshaft garage door openers. I have a different brand but similar type on both of my garage door openers. They are quiet, efficient, and remove all of the hardware out of your ceiling view. They need a lock assembly bolted on to the door railing to prevent the door from being opened up by hand. This kit does include that component.

They've been mostly trouble free in the 16 years since my home was built. I've needed to replace the control board of both units once each at ~ $120 plus minor technical labor that I easily did myself. Mine are LiftMaster and larger than these so they likely don't share components.

In terms of the opener method, I have had issues twice with one of my doors where the door jammed in a dangerous manner. I have a utility closet with doors that interfere with the large garage door if they are left open. When that occurs the door is not allowed to lower itself with the holding force fully on one side of the door. The opener can't detect this issue because it is just turning the jackshaft. This resulted in the cabling being allowed to unwind itself from the pulley on that side and the door jammed at a bad angle. I was able to repair the door myself both times, but for someone less handy I'd recommend having a repair technician do the work for safety.

While I can't comment on this specific product, I absolutely LOVE my jackshaft openers and every "standard" opener I see at family and friend's houses looks out of place.

Concur. Also pick yourself up nylon rollers with ball bearings and it'll be even quieter. I had a wayne dalton torquemaster internal-spring torsion bar and switched to a standard torsion bar with a Liftmaster wall-mount opener. Big improvement as my master bedroom is directly above the garage.

I have a WD door with a standard torsion bar and this fits. Before switching to the std. torsion bar, I had a torquemaster internal spring bar which would've required this:

I have a rear mounted torsion bar due to low overhead, Genie doesn't really say about that situation one way or the other

So what's the advantage? Because unless you rework the track, it's not saving space, because of the door, maybe a little where the old unit sits.

The other issue is power, I have a dedicated plug in my existing spot.

The main advantage for me is the reduced sound. My bedroom is above the garage so wall mounting the unit resulted in a large reduction of sound coming to my bedroom from the garage.

I have this installed on my house and the only main issue I ran into is the torsion bar bolts slipping. I had these tightened, they slipped and then the door ends up spinning in the holder. Not a terrible fix, but something to be mindful of. The advantage is these are so quiet - and much less maintenance than traditional openers. I also like that mine has a battery backup.
