Detecting signs that your garage door opener may require repair is crucial for preventing potential glitches, or even the garage door not working at all. One indicator is unusual noises during operation, such as sounds you would otherwise describe as grinding, which could signify worn-out components. Slow or inconsistent response to remote commands or wall switches may also suggest that the opener is not working to its full potential. If your garage door starts to close and then reverses suddenly, it may indicate that something is off in terms of safety sensors or misalignment. Additionally, if you notice visible wear and tear on the opener's chain or belt, or if the door jerks during movement, we recommend calling on us for repair. We are capable of opener repair for any opener system. This includes screw drive, jackshaft, belt drive and more. If you need help, call Heights Garage Door!

A garage door opener is made up of different working parts. Understanding these parts and their functions is crucial, as the failure of just one component can render the entire opener system inoperative.
Motor: The motor can be referred to as the center or heart of the garage door opener. It provides the power which is required to raise and lower the door. When you activate the opener, the motor converts electrical energy into mechanical force, driving the door's movement.
Drive Mechanism: The drive mechanism transfers the motor's power to the door's moving parts. Common types include chain drives, belt drives, and screw drives. They work to determine how the force is transmitted to the door.
Trolley or Carriage: The trolley or carriage is attached to the drive mechanism and connects to the garage door itself. It moves along a rail to lift the garage door up and to bring it down.
Remote Control or Wall Switch: These devices allow you to control the garage door opener from a distance or within the garage itself.
Limit Switches: Limit switches determine the open and close positions of the door. When the door reaches these limits, the switches signal the motor to stop.
At Heights Garage Door we are prepared to provide assistance in the Maryland Heights area for any damaged opener parts.
