Is it Really Whisper Quiet? It would be hard for any garage door opener to really be whisper quiet when lifting a metal door that weighs several hundred pounds, but the Chamberlain WD822KD Whisper Drive 1/2-HP Belt Drive
Garage Door Opener does an admirable job. The real "whisper-factor" kicks in when you compare this system to a traditional, chain driven garage door open. This model uses a belt driven system that is much quieter than any chain driven system available. If you've dealt with a noisy garage door opener for years, you really will find this unit to be "whisper quiet."
Powerful Performance So, now you know that the Chamberlain WD822KD Whisper Drive 1/2-HP Belt Drive Garage Door Opener is quiet, but that doesn't mean a whole lot if the motor isn't up to the task of opening and closing a heavy garage door.

Like the proverbial "Gentle Giant", this unit has plenty of power and doesn't make a lot of noise. That's a pretty handy one-two punch combo for any garage door opener to possess.
