Garage Door Openers & Accessories

Garage door remotes have four main reasons for malfunctioning — a low battery, a locked remote feature, a need for a remote reprogram or an issue with the garage door receiver. Before calling a professional, check your batteries first and switch them out for new ones. When the wall-mounted button works but the remote does not, you may need to reprogram your remote. If all else fails, you can reach out to us at 877.902.2656 for guidance.

Disconnecting your garage door from the opener is an important part of manually lifting your garage when needed. You can successfully disconnect the opener and garage door with a few simple steps.

Start by closing the door and pulling the red emergency release handle connected to your garage door opener. You should now be able to move the door up and down manually. When you’re ready to use your remote again, pull the red emergency release handle and open the garage using the opener’s remote.

While a garage door typically lasts up to 20 years with proper maintenance and care, you can expect your garage door opener to last anywhere from 10 to 15 years. Take note of any strange noises from the opener — this may be a sign you need a new opener installation. If your garage opener has been in your garage since 1993, we recommend replacing this security feature to ensure your garage is secure.
