Opener Problems We Resolve
Don't let a malfunctioning opener leave you stranded. Here's what we diagnose and repair regularly for Kirtland and Lake County homeowners:
Opener won't respond
May be sensor misalignment, remote battery issues, motor failure, or electrical problems. We identify and resolve the root cause.
Grinding or buzzing noise
Often signals worn gears, loose chain or belt, or motor bearing problems. Early repair prevents expensive motor replacement.
Door reverses unexpectedly
Usually from misaligned safety sensors or detected obstruction. We realign sensors and verify photo-eye operation.
Remote works inconsistently
Could be battery, antenna, or signal interference. We replace batteries, repair antennas, and reprogram remotes as needed.
Door moves sluggishly
May indicate aging motor, track problems, or spring issues. We perform comprehensive system diagnosis.
Opener light stays off
We replace bulbs, inspect sockets, and troubleshoot logic board issues affecting the light circuit.

Operates via a threaded steel rod. Fewer components means less maintenance. Well-suited for heavier doors.
