The Genie excelerator is known to be one of the best garage door openers on the market today but as with all products there are good and bad features to consider. In this informative article you'll find out what those good/bad attributes are as well as get some valuable feedback from Genie Excelerator owners.

The Genie Excelerator garage door opener uses a screw drive type design to open the garage door. It's known to be one of the faster doors to open which is a extremely fantastic safety feature to have in case of an emergency. In actual fact it opens faster than it closes, and closing slow is as well a really great safety feature due to things (little kids) getting stuck under there.

Of course, like all garage openers it's the infrared safety sensor and will pull back higher if anything breaks the plane where the sensors are. It also starts and stops with a slower rate of acceleration (hence the name Genie Excelerator) which keeps it in better shape so it can last longer by avoiding the normal wear and tear that other garage door openers go through by taking longer to open and close.

Even more features of the Excelerator:

* Comes with two transmitters

* Vacation lock (easy to use and program)

* Wall mount

* Extra light bulbs

The Genie Excelerator will provide superior cold weather performance as well. The low-profile rail allows for low headroom installation when you don't have alot of space to work with. In addition, the INTELLICODE access security system prevents unauthorized access to garage which has been a major concern as of recent. The excelerator also has a self-diagnostic safety beam that signals the consul letting the homeowner know if a problem persists.

A recent Genie Excelerator owner offered this helpful advice:

"I installed the Excelerator and it does open incredibly speedy but is also pretty noisy because of it. It is incredibly quiet going down though at normal speed. I am awaiting word back from Genie as to whether or not i can slow it down to quiet it down because the noise volume seems to depend on the speed at which it operates. Our bedroom is above the garage and you are able to clearly hear the door going up and down from there."

So there you have it, the good and the bad of the Genie Excelerator. Primarily the bad is the noise volume but by slowing down the speed at which the door operates you may be able to control the noise. In addition if you don't have a living space directly above your garage the noise most likely won't be a problem.
