Repair or Replace?

Many times, a garage door opener can be repaired, and it doesn't need replaced. Precision technicians arrive with a variety of parts on their truck in order to service your opener on the first visit. There are cases when replacement is necessary:

  • If the brand or manufacturer no longer exists, it may be hard to find replacement garage door 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 can result from worn parts, lack of lubrication, or misaligned tracks. Regular maintenance can often resolve these issues.
  • Remote Issues: Common causes include dead batteries, interference, or problems with the signal receiver. Replacing batteries or reprogramming the remote may fix it.
  • Motor Humming But Not Moving: This typically indicates a problem with the motor or gears, which may be worn or jammed, preventing the door from operating.
  • Door won't Open or Close: This can be due to power issues, a broken spring, or a misaligned safety sensor, all of which require troubleshooting or professional repair.
  • Safety Eye Issues: Blocked or misaligned safety sensors can prevent the door from closing. Cleaning the sensors or adjusting their alignment often solves the problem.
