2 of 'em. Maybe someday I'll have a house of my own that requires one ::) Get a screw drive model if you can. Damn near unbreakable, plus almost universally, they're quiet. Not a big deal if your garage is detached though. Lay out all the crap beforehand to make sure you have everything. The first one I ever did was missing several pieces that required removing and bringing the whole darn thing back to the store. It's really not that hard. I think even Chad would give this a shot ;) |

Screw drives are louder. My belt drives in my house are nice and quiet. Oh, and they have a motion sensor that turns on the light when you walk into the garage. That's the best feature. Jacktucky "went from screw to belt when he bought a new house" |

I didn't think either of the screw drives I've seen were loud at all compared to the one they had in there. |

The belt drive I have is uber quiet. The brand new door makes more noise as it goes up and down than the opener does. |
