Don’t wait for a total breakdown. These are common red flags that your garage door opener may need service:
Door doesn’t open or close at all.
Door starts to open/close, then stops or reverses.
Opener makes grinding, clicking, or humming noises.
Wall switch or remote isn’t working.
Lights on the opener flash repeatedly.
Slow or delayed response when pressing the button.
Random operation when no one activates the opener.
Opener is 15+ years old and showing wear.
🧠 Heads up: Older openers may not just need repair—they may be overdue for a full upgrade. We’ll inspect your system and give honest recommendations.
Each type of garage door opener has unique wear points:
Chain Drive Openers: Durable but noisy; gear or chain issues are common.
Screw Drive Openers: Fewer parts but prone to wear on the trolley mechanism.
Belt Drive Openers: Quiet and smooth, but belts can crack or stretch over time.
Rust, friction, and lack of lubrication can also lead to opener failure. Our repair service includes a full check of your opener, tracks, sensors, and moving parts to ensure everything’s working together properly.
Some garage door issues aren’t mechanical. Before you schedule a repair, try these steps:
Check for power – Make sure the opener is plugged in and your breaker hasn’t tripped.
Replace remote/keypad batteries – Dead batteries are a quick fix.
Ensure manual lock isn’t engaged – Sometimes this is switched on by accident.
Test manual function – Pull the emergency release to lift the door. If it opens smoothly, the opener is likely the problem.
Still stuck? Our friendly team is just a call away.
Every garage door opener includes safety sensors that prevent the door from closing when something is in its path. These sensors are vital for families with kids or pets.
📍 If your garage door reverses on its own or your opener light is flashing, it could be a sign the sensors:
Are dirty or blocked.
Have misaligned photo eyes.
Have disconnected wiring or internal faults.
We’ll inspect and calibrate your safety sensors during every opener repair call.
