Overhead Door Python 2 Chain Drive Garage Door Opener

“With no exposed wires or greasy chain, the Python 2 has a cleaner look and
is not as messy as other chain drive models.”

The Overhead Door Python 2 garage door opener is a quieter chain drive garage door opener. The Python 2 uses an enclosed in-line chain to hush operating noise and reduce maintenance needs.

Typical chain drive garage door openers have exposed chains and tend to rattle and loosen over time. This chain drive model requires no chain tensioning or chain lubrication for the standard life of this model.

NOTE: This review is for a discontinued Overhead Door model.
