Diagnose before replacing

The Opener Is Only One Part of the System

When a garage door will not move, the motor is easy to blame. But the problem may be a broken spring, disconnected trolley, binding track, damaged roller, locked door, safety sensor or electrical issue.

We evaluate both the opener and the door. An opener should guide a correctly balanced door; it should not have to overpower mechanical problems.

  • Opener troubleshooting and replacement
  • Remote and wireless keypad setup
  • Photo-eye safety sensor problems
  • Wall control and wiring issues
  • Travel and force adjustment
  • Smart-access and battery-backup options

Safety matters

Do Not Bypass Garage Door Safety Features

Modern openers use photo-eye sensors and reversal settings to reduce the risk of the door closing on a person, pet, vehicle or object. If the door will not close, do not tape a button down, defeat a sensor or increase force to hide resistance.

Clear visible obstructions and gently clean the sensor lenses. If the indicators, wiring, alignment or door movement remain abnormal, schedule service. A working opener should reverse as designed and move the door without jerking or strain.

Helpful answers

Garage Door Opener FAQs

Why does my garage door opener run but not lift the door?

The opener may be disconnected or damaged, but a broken spring or another door problem can also prevent lifting. The door system should be inspected before replacing the opener.

Why will my garage door open but not close?

Safety-sensor alignment, wiring, sunlight interference, an obstruction, track resistance or limit settings can cause closing problems. Never bypass the safety sensors.

Can I add smartphone control to my garage door?

Many newer openers support compatible smart controls. The available features depend on the opener model, home Wi-Fi coverage and installed accessories.

Should I choose a belt-drive or chain-drive opener?

Belt drives are often selected for quieter operation, while chain drives are known for straightforward, durable operation. Door size, weight, usage and building layout matter more than one feature alone.

Straight answers. Solid work.
