Choosing the Right Horsepower
Selecting the correct motor size for your garage door opener is crucial for reliable, long-lasting performance. AC motors are the traditional choice, offering dependable power for most residential doors. DC motors are quieter, more energy-efficient, and allow soft-start/soft-stop operation that reduces wear on your door.
For standard single-car doors (8-10 feet wide), a 1/2 HP motor is typically sufficient. Double-car doors (16+ feet) or heavier insulated doors benefit from a 3/4 HP or 1 HP motor for smoother operation and extended lifespan. When in doubt, going slightly higher on horsepower reduces strain and motor burnout over time.
1/2 HP
Best for: Single-car doors, lightweight doors
Ideal when: Most standard residential applications
3/4 HP
Best for: Double-car doors, insulated doors
Ideal when: Heavy doors, frequent daily use
1 HP+
Best for: Oversized doors, commercial applications
Ideal when: Maximum durability and performance
