A garage door opener uses a motor to lift and lower your garage door. When you press the button on your remote, it sends a signal to the opener's receiver. The motor then engages a mechanism, usually a chain, belt, or screw drive, to move the door along its tracks. Safety sensors are crucial; if they detect an obstruction, they stop the door from closing. If you're having trouble, licensed pros can help diagnose opener issues. Call us for a free quote.

A garage door torsion spring is a crucial component that counterbalances the weight of your garage door. It's typically mounted on a bar above the door. When the door is open, the spring is wound tightly. As the door closes, the spring unwinds, assisting the opener in lifting the door. These springs are under significant tension and are not a DIY repair job. Licensed pros handle torsion spring replacements safely. Call for a free estimate.

This means you need adequate overhead clearance for the tracks and the door panel itself. The opener mechanism also requires some vertical space. A licensed pro can assess your specific garage for proper door sizing. Call us for a free quote.
