Frequently-Asked Question:
1. I often see Sears openers on sale for
about $150.00. Why do Lift-Master openers cost so much more?
Though both openers are made by Chamberlain, the Lift-Master has a
heavier drawbar system with a solid chain, metal front idler sprocket
and a one-piece drawbar track. Sears openers have half chain and half
cable, a plastic pulley for the cable portion, and track divided into
three or more parts. Cables fray and track junctions loosen, resulting
in future expenses down the road. I would value this difference in
quality at about $25. Sales tax on Sears openers would add another $10,
and installation with heavy-duty angle about $100. Adjusting the springs
and oiling the door would add another $15, and dealer warranty covering
parts and labor is worth about $30. When the hidden costs are tabulated,
$150+25+10+100+15+30, the total comes to $330. You pretty much get what
you pay for.
