The Types of Garage Door Openers
From broken garage door springs to off track garage doors and tune-ups, we do it all. We offer guaranteed same day service and competitive pricing everyday.
This type of garage door opener is defined by the long chain that extends the length of the track and does the bulk of the pulling. This device is usually paired with a basic 1/2 HP motor for a reliable performance. The primary drawbacks of a chain drive are particularly high levels of noise and vibration, so these are the opener of choice for detached garages. Of course, simple chain drives are available with varying levels of torque and lift capabilities, so we are happy to help you find the model that fits your needs.

Finally, the screw drive garage door opener uses a long corkscrew-like pin that rotates inside the rail. Years ago, screw drive openers were popular among manufacturers, but they have recently gone out of style in favor of more efficient models (like those listed above). The device’s spinning action obviously resulted in major friction problems and quickly degrading parts. As a result, we currently do not recommend any screw drive operators for new installations, but we can still service or repair existing ones.
Common Garage Door Opener Problems
BROKEN OR STRIPPED GEAR KITS
Gear and sprocket kits are a very common problem with chain driven garage door openers.
The gear itself can strip, causing the motor not to move. Also the sprocket on top can begin to shift forward or break off completely. These problems are caused by unnecessary stress from your garage door. Running a door with a loose chain or a damaged sprocket is not recommended.
Schedule your appointment today if you’re having problems with your gear kit.
ELECTRICAL DAMAGE
Garage door openers can suffer from a range of electrical issues as well.
Much like the gear kit, electrical problems are caused due to stress from the door.
Lightning is another way boards can suffer damage. Electrical includes logic boards, remotes, sensors, etc.
