Q: Chain drives are some of the most popular and durable openers on the market. These drives use a metal chain on a sprocket to lift and lower doors. Chain openers also tend to be some of the most affordable options; however, the affordability and strength of a chain drive come at the expense of noise. Chain drives are ideal for the heaviest garage door types, including oversized doors, one-piece wood doors, and wind-rated or heavily insulated doors. If you have a detached garage or a garage that is at the opposite end of the house from the bedrooms, then the noise will be less of an issue. Many upgraded chain-drive models can come with chain separators to help stop the chain from hitting against the track, which cuts down on the noise of a chain drive. Screw drives use a long metal rod threaded like a screw to lift and close garage doors. Due to having relatively few moving parts, a screw drive tends to be quite reliable as well. If noise is your biggest consideration, screw-drive openers tend to be middle of the pack. They're not nearly as quiet as belt or direct drives, but they are most typically quieter than chain drives. Screw drives also require a bit more maintenance than most of the other types. Despite having fewer moving parts, the threaded metal rod meshes against a drive section with plastic teeth to catch the threading. Without the proper lubrication on this drive, the rod can wear on the teeth and eventually strip them, so you must grease the works fairly regularlyapproximately every few months. The type of garage door you have should also be taken into consideration. For heavy wood one-piece doors, the extra weight and strain can wear the teeth in the inner works of the drive down pretty quickly. This makes screw drives most effective with single-car garage doors or steel doors since the thinner materials cut down on weight. Screw-drive openers also offer some of the faster speeds available. Newer models can open at 10" to 12" per second as opposed to the more standard 6" to 8" per second of most other drive types. Belt-drive openers use a rubber or rubber-like belt on a cog to open and close doors. Since the opener doesn't have the loud, banging metal parts, it's one of the quietest options available. Consider your particular garage door. If your door makes a lot of noise on its track, then the lower volume of the belt opener may be moot. Pay special attention to the current of belt-drive openers. Alternating current belt openers start and stop at full power, which can cause the door to jerk into movement and lead to noise despite the relative quiet of the drive. Direct current belt drives offer soft starts and stops that reduce noise even further, as well as reducing wear and tear. Though less common than the other models, these alternatives are gaining in popularity, and both offer additional options for quiet door openers. Jackshaft openers attach directly to the front wall of the garage, meaning no overhead parts. These models use cables attached directly to the garage door along with pulleys and a rolling torsion bar to lift and lower the door. Many models of this computerized system even include an automatic deadbolt that locks when the door closes for added safety. Due to the compact nature and computerization, jackshaft openers are some of the most expensive models available, and the cable system also means that they only work on sectioned garage doors. Direct-drive openers still have an overhead rail with a chain, but the actual motor moves along the track with the door connected to the motor via a J-arm. Since the motor moves instead of the chain, these models are also extremely quiet, and since the only real moving part is the motor, they tend to come with extremely goodmaybe even lifetimewarranties. They are still on the pricey side, howevercomparable to a belt drive opener.
A: Consider chain-drive openers as a cost-effective option. Consider screw-drive openers for a well-rounded option. Consider belt-drive openers for quiet operation. Consider direct-drive and jackshaft openers for quiet and highly dependable options.

Q: Blue eyes can match well with a variety of shades, but classic neutral shades go great with blue during the day. Neutrals include colors like navy, olive, gold, silver, cream, and camel. Neutrals tend to go with anything. If you don't want a look that's completely lacking in color, you can use neutrals to bring out your eyes while still having some bright colors in your outfit. For example, if you want to wear a pink top, wear it with olive green jeans. Corals tend to bring out green eyes during the day. Corals contrast with green just slightly to make your eyes really pop. Look for coral wardrobe items to highlight green eyes during the day. For example, look for coral dresses, undershirts, blazers, or pants to bring out your green eyes during the day. While hazel eyes do tend to pair well with darker colors, during the day you should go lighter. Lavender can really bring out your hazel eyes for daytime wear. If lavender is too soft or feminine for your tastes, you can incorporate it in small ways. For example, wear a lavender undershirt with a suit. Deep blues work great at bringing out brown eyes during the day. For daytime events, look for your best deep blue wardrobe items. For a more casual event, blue jeans can actually be a great way to bring out your brown eyes. For a more formal event, go for a dark blue button shirt, suit jacket, blazer, dress, or dress pants.
