Genie AC ChainLift Garage Door Opener Features and Specifications

The Reviews

The Genie door opener gets four and a half stars from reviewers due to the durable product and ease of installation. Users rave about the smooth maneuvering and extra quiet DC motor. However, one reviewer stated that the door opens at a slightly slower rate than those with AC motors. The difference in speed is only altered by seconds, so the reviewer was not inconvenienced and adjusted to the difference well. Another reviewer noted that the opener only works on doors that are seven feet or less. This is not listed in the product’s description and may be an unpleasant surprise if you are attempting to use it on a larger door.

Installation of the Genie 1022 is a breeze, according to users that carry on about the extremely detailed owner’s manual. The book is set up with easy to reference categories and each part is carefully labelled and packaged. One reviewer wrote that set up took only a couple of hours, with many other users echoing that claim. Another use reports that the set up can be as quick as just an hour if you read the manual the night before. The electronic programming will guide you to the proper stopping point and is easily set by just a single push of a button. The IntelliTouch feature will remember this setting and reverse if anything crosses the predetermined location. With the simple set-by-step directions, users claim to be able to install the device on their own. However, having a friend or two to help will make the installation time even faster. By choosing the Genie 1022 ½ Horsepower AC ChainLift Garage Door Opener, you will have an extra strong motor with a whisper quiet operation.
