Repair or Replace?

In a lot of cases, many garage door openers can be repaired without requiring a replacement. Our technicians arrive with a wide variety of parts in their trucks so they can service your opener on the first visit. 

There are still some cases however where a replacement might be necessary:

  • If the brand or manufacturer no longer exists, it may be hard to find replacement parts for your opener.
  • If a manufacturer has encountered many lawsuits due to safety, we don't feel comfortable repairing these openers for the safety of your family.
  • Federal regulations surrounding garage door openers were enacted in 1993. If your opener was installed prior to 1993, it may be time for a replacement. This is especially true if your opener does not have safety eyes, which is crucial for a safe operating garage door.

Common Garage Door Opener Issues

  • Noisy or Slow Operation: This issue may stem from worn components, insufficient lubrication, or misaligned tracks. Performing regular maintenance can help address and often resolve these concerns.
  • Safety Eye Issues: Misaligned or obstructed safety sensors can stop the door from closing. Cleaning the sensors or adjusting their alignment can often rectify the problem.
  • Door Won't Open or Close: This can occur due to power supply issues, a broken spring, or a misaligned safety sensor. Troubleshooting these factors or seeking professional repair is necessary to resolve the issue.
  • Motor Humming But Not Moving: A humming sound from the motor without movement usually indicates a malfunction with the motor or gears, which could be worn out or jammed, hindering the door's operation.
  • Remote Issues: Problems with the remote can arise from dead batteries, signal interference, or issues with the receiver. Simply replacing the batteries or reprogramming the remote may restore functionality.

    Imbalanced Garage Doors Cause Stress on Openers

    An imbalanced garage door can significantly strain your garage door opener, leading to premature wear or failure. During our 25-point inspection, we thoroughly check the balance of your garage door to ensure smooth operation and prevent unnecessary stress on the opener. When a door is improperly balanced, the opener must work harder to lift and lower it, which can result in frequent repairs or the need for a replacement. Regular maintenance and balance checks are essential for extending the life of both your garage door and its opener.
