I've always used Overhead Door. The one I have now is 20 years old and still works like it did when it was installed.
Do you want chain, belt, or screw drive? Is it right next to a bedroom where a quiet drive would be beneficial (or not)?
What HP rating? What size is the door (I assume existing)?

It will be a new detached garage, with single doors.

The worm gear off of the motor ground the nylon gear that drives the chain into "dust".
You can buy the worm gear and the driven gear in a kit and replace the gears. It is a common wear item and commonly replaced. No need to replace the entire opener unless the opener has other issues.
