Frequently Asked Questions

In most cases, we can resolve garage door remote issues the same day you call. Our technicians carry a wide range of replacement remotes and have the equipment to reprogram most systems on-site. For standard remote programming or battery replacements, the job typically takes 15-30 minutes. If your issue involves the receiver unit in the opener itself, we may need to replace components, which we usually have in stock on our trucks. Call us and we'll often have your remote working again within a few hours of your call.

Garage door remote issues can stem from several causes. The most common is simply dead batteries—try replacing them first. Other causes include signal interference from nearby electronics or LED lights, antenna problems on the opener unit, worn-out remote circuitry, or programming issues after a power outage. In some cases, the photo-eye sensors may be misaligned, preventing the door from responding to remote commands for safety reasons. Our technicians can quickly diagnose the exact cause and provide the most cost-effective solution.

We recommend professional maintenance at least once a year. During this service, our technicians perform a comprehensive 25-point inspection, lubricate all moving parts, adjust spring tension, and identify any developing issues before they become expensive problems. Regular maintenance can extend your garage door's lifespan by several years and prevent inconvenient breakdowns.

Signs that your springs may need replacement include: the door feels heavy when lifting manually, the door opens unevenly or appears crooked, you hear a loud bang from the garage (broken spring), visible gaps or stretching in the spring coils, or the door won't stay open when lifted halfway. Springs are under extreme tension and should only be replaced by trained professionals.

First, check the photo-eye sensors at the bottom of the door tracks—they may be misaligned, dirty, or blocked. Clean the lenses with a soft cloth and ensure nothing is obstructing the beam. If the sensor lights aren't lit, check for loose wires. Also verify the wall button works; if it does but the remote doesn't, you may have a remote issue. If these steps don't help, call us for a same-day diagnosis.
