Description

Due to California Senate Bill No. 969, as of 01 July 2019 all garage door openers, sold to or installed at any residence in California, must have a battery backup system included. Please search for Genie battery backup to find one that is in compliance with this law. Power: ¾ HPc 140 Volt DC motor provides power to operate almost any residential garage door up to 7' high from the box, or up to 8' high with an extension kit. Two 100 Watt bulb lighting system provides added convenience and safety. From the Manufacturer The ChainMax 1000 provides intelligent design for the homeowner that wants quiet performance with superior design and conveniences that fit their busy lifestyle. The ChainMax 1000 comes with two 3 button remotes, a wall console, and a wireless keypad. Auto Seek Dual Frequency: System will automatically seek either the 315 or 390 MHz frequency produced by a remote, helping to ensure the opener will respond regardless of nearby frequency interference. GenieSense Monitoring and Diagnostic Technology: Delivers the power needed at every movement of the garage door and continuously monitors the operation of the door, stopping operation when significant changes occur. GenieSense minimizes noise, wear and tear on the door, and improves overall safety. Safety: Comprehensive Safe-T-Beam system meets or exceeds all UL, state, federal and CSA regulations, and incorporates an auto reversing system and diagnostics.

  • Nice. Quiet. Smooth.
Style: ChainMax 1000 Pattern Name: Door Opener
After a couple months, I really like this opener. It was easy enough to install - though I think it has too many pieces - but the instructions were clear enough and the illustrations are effective. Wired it into the old switch and that worked fine. Had to short circuit the stupid LED safety eyes because that is not applicable in my situation. (Wish they would provide a switch to bypass it, but whatever.) Now in operation, it works flawlessly. Much quieter than previous, and the operation is smooth. It's a bit slow, but not really a problem. If there is one suggestion: There is far too much packaging. The trash was almost as heavy as the opener :) Oh well. I'm happy with the purchase. ... show more

  • Excellent Product
Style: ChainMax 1000 Pattern Name: Door Opener
I have a 2-bay garage with a heavy steel door. The original garage door opener was a Craftsman 1/2 HP. It was a solid product, but a little noisy. I replaced that after about 15 years of service with the exact same model. Fifteen years later (about 6 months ago), it failed again. This time I replaced it with this Genie ChainMax 1000, which is rated at 3/4 HP. What a big difference! Quiet, smoother, quicker than the Craftsman. I installed it myself. I did have a minor issue at installation. The chain was a little tangled (from rough shipping?), so I had to call Genie tech support to understand how to position it properly. Their tech support was excellent. Fast, knowledgeable and effective. During programming of the unit, I needed tech support again because my garage door was opening occasionally seemingly randomly. What it turned out to be was when I put the unit in learn mode (a 30-second window) it just so happened that my neighbor across the street was opening his garage door, so my unit memorized his remote control too. Again, Genie tech support to the rescue. I cleared all the codes and reprogrammed the unit and it's worked perfectly for 5 months now. Super happy with the product! ... show more

  • Not an easy install, but good result.
Style: ChainMax 1000 Pattern Name: Door Opener
I chose to have the installation included, I have mixed feelings about the way it worked out. I had called Genie and they acted as if it would in essence be one of their people doing the install, but it was farmed out and then that company contracts someone to do the work. So I was a little bit deceived, I thought that it was going to be somebody installing it, that that is all they do for a living, so I think because of that it just ended up taking way too long. They contacted me if I wanted a time earlier than 5 p.m., I said yes, yet it ended up being a 6:30 start and the guy was still at my house at 12:30AM! and as things turned out it wasn't completed until later on Saturday. One of the difficulties is that Genie really doesn't provide enough appropriate materials, so we had to use some of my old aluminum framing in order to properly support the motor, we also had to use a piece of material from the old install to hook into the shaft of the tract and mount the other end on framing above, we had to jury-rig something there in order to give the proper stability to the track, as it was bowing a little bit. Going back to the aluminum framing for the motor area they actually want you to bend it which I venture to say 4 the home DIY person that could cause some difficulties, they really should ship that piece pre-bent, likewise they should provide enough materials as previously mentioned to support the motor you don't want that to be at all Wiggly, that should just be standard in what they ship out along with about a 18 to 25 inch long shaft of some sort that you can use to support the track. I think the technician did a very good job given the materials provided he also helped in some other ways that was very supportive, even with that said there really should be a technician sent out that's all they do is install garage door openers and equally important Genie should be sending out the proper product support. I will say this, from the years of owning a Genie garage door opener they are very very good in their customer support, probably about the best of any company I can think of, but they need to rethink what they're selling you in a new unit. Once we got everything completed the unit functions very well so far, it doesn't make much noise at all and I actually like the way it goes down a bit slowly I think on the up as well, it's just more controlled, doesn't shake around like my old unit, one of the reasons why I got this one is my old unit was only 1/2 horsepower this one is 3/4 horsepower and I have an older garage door a single piece unit which I think it's also more challenging on the install than the roll up. I would suggest if you're going to purchaese the installation, do it first thing in the morning are no later than about 3 in the afternoon, I have some challenges with my schedule so I was attempting to do it at 5 p.m. that's too late these things can be quite tricky to install particularly when all of the necessary supporting product is not included. ... show more

  • New opener is quieter.

We had a genie opener that was a screw drive that we replaced the new one with that's a chain drive. And the chain drive is quieter.

  • Instructions were confusing for 1 part
Style: ChainMax 1000 Pattern Name: Door Opener
Love this opener. Replaced a Craftsman opener that was 20 years old. Only issue I ran into is, the video and instructions are VERY confusing on the first steps of putting the track together. The video says to do it one way, the printed instructions could have been MUCH clearer. Being chain drive and putting it together backwards caused all kind of issues with the chain....called the hotline, they talked me through it and I was done. I've replaced previous openers in a very short time, this one took half a day. Once the chain got straightened out, went very easily. Would definitely buy it again ... show more

  • Glad we got this one!
Style: ChainMax 1000 Pattern Name: Door Opener
Not knowing anything about openers, I took a shot at the one I believed was the best for the money. We have a 2 car insulated garage door and this thing handles it with no problem. Not slow, not fast, just right and even though it's chain drive, it's surprisingly VERY quiet! Can barely hear it in the kitchen right next to the garage. Installation was pretty easy, replacing the old unit and track. Instructions were written very well. Definitely recommend. ... show more
