I had a Loadmaster jackshaft garage door opener in my last house and plan to get anther:
LiftMaster 3900 Jackshaft Garage Door Operator 3900LM
LiftMaster 3900 Jackshaft Garage Door Operator 3900LM
US $291.00 New in Home & Garden, Home Improvement, Building & Hardware
View on www.ebay.com Preview by Yahoo
It also has a bolt that engages the closed door, I don't know if that would make a difference in the break-in you described, but it is a little bit more security.

Tony,
I failed to mention, my doors are all solid no windows, maybe it adds a
few extra seconds to get in working blind, but the opener is almost
guaranteed to be central to the door. That is unless you have the
Liftmaster side mount door opener that Jeff refers to.
