Should You Repair or Replace Your Garage Door Opener?
Your garage door opener plays an essential role in your daily life. Occasionally, it may stop working for several reasons — simple or complex — depending on its age and the amount of wear and tear it has seen. Typically, garage door openers last 10 to 15 years with proper maintenance. If you’ve noticed any of the following issues, it could be time to schedule repair services or upgrade the opener:
- Your remote control or keypad isn’t working.
- You hear strange grinding or clunking noises when your garage door opens.
- Your overhead door uses unreliable, out-of-date technology.
If your garage door opener is more than a decade old and you’ve noticed consistent problems, it might be time to upgrade. Newer models may malfunction similarly due to issues as simple as a deactivated motor. One of our qualified and experienced repair technicians can help you determine whether you should repair or replace your garage door opener based on its condition and the problem’s underlying cause.
