What opener repair & installation covers

The opener is the motor, rail, carriage, safety sensors and logic board that drive an already balanced door. Many 'opener problems' are really door problems, so we always test the door's balance before condemning a motor.

We repair the units we can and replace the ones that are past economical repair, including belt-drive, chain-drive, and Wi-Fi models with smartphone control.

Signs you need this service

  • The motor runs but the door does not move
  • The door reverses immediately after touching the floor
  • Remotes work intermittently or only at close range
  • Grinding from the motor head, or plastic shavings on the floor
  • The opener light flashes a repeating code
  • The unit is loud enough to be heard through the house

Common causes

  • Stripped drive gear or a failed carriage
  • Misaligned or dirty photo-eye safety sensors
  • Worn logic board, capacitor or limit switches
  • Incorrect force and travel settings after a door repair
  • A door that is out of balance, forcing the opener to overwork

What happens if it's ignored

  • An opener fighting an unbalanced door will fail early and expensively
  • Faulty safety sensors defeat the auto-reverse feature that protects children and pets
  • Intermittent operation frequently strands a car inside the garage

Our process

How the visit works

The same order of work every time, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

  1. 01

    Test the door first

    We disconnect the opener and check that the door moves freely by hand — that tells us where the fault really is.

  2. 02

    Diagnose the unit

    Sensors, wiring, drive components, board and remotes are checked in turn.

  3. 03

    Repair or replace recommendation

    You get a straight answer on whether a repair is worth it against the cost of a new unit.

  4. 04

    Install and program

    New units are mounted, rails aligned, force and travel set, remotes and keypads paired, Wi-Fi app configured on request.

  5. 05

    Safety verification

    Auto-reverse is tested against an obstruction before we call the job done.
