Craftsman Garage Door Opener Service

Garage door openers are an integral component of your garage door system. When it stops working, your day becomes a lot more inconvenient. Craftsman garage door openers are among the top in the industry, but like all electronic components, Craftsman openers can break down over time.

Even though fixing the opener yourself might seem easy, it’s best to leave it to the professionals at Precision Garage Door Service. We have the specialized tools and expertise required to properly service your Craftsman garage door opener and avoid further damage or safety risks.

What’s Wrong With My Craftsman Garage Door Opener?

Even though the life expectancy of a Craftsman garage door opener ranges from 10 to 15 years, some of its components may start to deteriorate sooner due to weather and wear and tear. 

Here are some of the Craftsman garage door opener issues we see in the Charlottesville area. 

Sensors

If your Craftsman garage door seems unresponsive, the door fails to close, or the sensor lights keep blinking, you might be facing a garage door opener sensor issue. 

These types of Craftsman garage door opener issues are better left to a specialist, as sensors, electric components and sensor arrays are complex and fragile electrical systems that can be easily damaged. 

Remote Controls

If your opener’s remote control is unresponsive, works intermittently, or only functions at a very short distance, you are experiencing a problem with your garage door opener remote control.

While you can change the control batteries yourself, more complex Craftsman garage door opener problems, such as programming issues and signal interference, should be addressed by a professional.

Opener Motor

Suppose your Craftsman garage door opener motor starts humming or producing a grinding sound, runs intermittently, or stops responding altogether, then you are likely having a garage door opener motor problem.

Whether this is caused by sensor misalignment, electrical faults or a broken capacitor or gear, finding the correct component and replacing it can be expedited with the assistance of a qualified professional. 

In addition to your garage door opener motor, we can also repair garage door components such as:

• Damaged or misaligned tracks
• Broken springs 
• Cables

When Is a Garage Door Opener Replacement Better Than a Repair? 

While many garage door opener issues only need a simple fix, there are some cases where a replacement is going to be a better option. Here are some examples: 

• Your opener was manufactured before 1993 and does not have updated safety features. 
• Your current opener has been recalled. For your safety, we can’t repair recalled openers. 
• Parts are no longer being manufactured for your opener. 
• The cost of repairs will be more than a new model.
