Garage Door Opener Repair: What You Need to Know

First things first, let’s talk about the different types of openers. Most homes in Las Vegas have one of these three:

These are your workhorses – reliable and affordable. You'll hear that familiar chain sound when it's in action.

Belt Drive:

Looking for something quieter? Belt drives use a rubber belt for smoother, almost silent operation. Perfect if you have a bedroom close to the

Troubleshooting Common Garage Door Opener Problems

Now, let’s get down to business. Here are some common issues I see all the time:

The door won’t open at all: Start with the basics. Is the power cord plugged in? Did the circuit breaker trip? Check the remote batteries too. Sometimes it’s that simple!
The door opens and closes erratically: This could be a problem with the safety sensors. Make sure they’re aligned and nothing is blocking them. Those little eyes are crucial for safety!
The opener is making strange noises: A grinding or clicking sound could indicate a problem with the motor or the drive system. Time to call in a pro.

Infinity Garage Door's Opener Repair Expertise

At Infinity Garage Door, we don’t just fix openers; we understand them inside and out. Here are some of the common opener problems we specialize in:

Circuit Board Repair: The circuit board is the brain of your opener. If it’s malfunctioning, your door might not respond at all. We can diagnose and repair or replace faulty circuit boards, getting your opener back on track.
Gear and Sprocket Replacement: Over time, the gears and sprockets in your opener can wear down, causing grinding noises or preventing the door from opening. We can replace these components to restore smooth operation.
Limit Switch Adjustments: The limit switches control how far your garage door opens and closes. If they’re misaligned, the door might not close completely or could reverse direction unexpectedly. We can precisely adjust the limit switches to ensure proper door operation.
Sensor Alignment and Repair: Those safety sensors are vital for preventing accidents. If they’re misaligned or damaged, your door won’t close. We can quickly align your sensors or replace them if needed.
