Garage Door Repair FAQs

Here are some of the more common questions we get about garage door repair services:

How long does a typical garage door opener last?
You should expect an average lifespan of eight to 10 years, but some last three years and 25 or more for others.

My garage door makes a lot of noise. Why?
It’s most likely the result of the usual wear and tear on the rollers, hinges and bearings. Excessive use over time will cause squeaks, vibrations and hums.

I’ve pushed the opener button, but it does nothing. What can I do?
Make sure the opener is still plugged in, and that power is coming from the socket to the opener. If power is being transferred, then it could be either a mechanical or electrical problem that should be diagnosed by a qualified garage door service tech.
