An opener that hums without moving, clicks, or sends the door back up isn't always broken. A snapped spring leaves the opener trying to lift the whole door, and a door that has come off its track will jam any motor. So the tech checks the door by hand first.

When the opener really is the problem, we repair the sensors, drive gear, trolley, belt or chain, and travel settings. If it's worn out, we install a new one; recent installs include Chamberlain belt-drive openers. Before we leave, your remotes and keypad are programmed and tested.

Opener buzzing but the door won't budge?

Stop pressing the button and give us a call. A broken spring is a common cause.

Opener services

Before any opener work, we make sure the door itself moves freely and is balanced.

Opener repair

Gears, trolleys, belts, chains, circuit boards and wiring diagnosed and fixed.

Safety sensor fixes

Photo eyes near the floor cleaned, lined back up or swapped, so the door stops refusing to close.

New opener installation

Old units taken down and new openers mounted, wired and set for your door's weight and travel.

Settings and programming

Force and travel limits adjusted, and remotes, keypads and car buttons paired.

Opener drive types

01

Belt drive

Uses a rubber belt and runs very quietly. A good match for attached garages with living space nearby.

02

Chain drive

Uses a metal chain. Strong and economical, but you'll hear it run.

03

Wall mount

Sits on the end of the torsion bar beside the door and leaves the ceiling clear.

Signs the opener needs attention

Call if the opener:

  • Runs but the door doesn't moveThe drive gear may be stripped, or the trolley has come disengaged.
  • Reverses right before the floorDirty or misaligned safety eyes, or the close force is set wrong.
  • Clicks and does nothingCould be the motor, the circuit board, or a door too heavy to lift.
  • Works from the wall button onlyThe remote side has failed or needs reprogramming.
  • Blinks its light and won't closeMany openers flash to signal a sensor problem.

Safety first. Never disable or tape over the safety sensors to get the door to close. They're what stops the door from coming down on a person, a pet or a car. If they keep acting up, have them checked.

FAQs

Garage Door Opener Repair FAQs

Why does my garage door go back up before it closes?

Usually the safety eyes near the floor are dirty, knocked out of line, or something is in the beam. Clean the lenses and check that both indicator lights are steady. If it keeps happening, the close force or the door's balance may need adjusting.

Should I repair my opener or replace it?

If the motor runs and the problem is a gear, sensor or board, repair usually makes sense. If the unit is old, loud, has no safety sensors or keeps breaking, a new opener is often the better spend. We'll quote both.

What opener brand do you install?

Our recent installs are Chamberlain openers. If you have a specific brand or model in mind, mention it when you call and we'll let you know what we can do.

My opener hums but nothing moves. What's wrong?

With the door fully closed, pull the emergency release and try lifting the door by hand. If it's very heavy, a spring is probably broken, so stop running the opener. If the door moves easily, the opener's gear or drive is the likely problem.

Can you install an opener in a garage that never had one?

Yes, as long as the door is balanced and in good shape. We mount the opener and rail, install the safety eyes and a wall button, and program your remotes. You'll need an outlet near the ceiling; we'll tell you if one is missing.
