Unless you are a garage door technician, you may not know what to look out for when you need new garage door opener installation. After all, your garage door has many different parts that contribute to making it open and close, and each has their own signs to determine if they need to be replaced. Here are few things to help you determine if it’s the right time to schedule your new garage door opener installation. 

Signs You Need Garage Door Opener Replacement

Your Garage Door Opener Is Old in Age

Your garage door opener is meant to last 10-15 years, depending on the brand and type. When your garage door opener begins to age, you may notice it not performing as usual. If your garage door opener has aged past the 15 year mark or is showing multiple signs of an issue, you should plan on scheduling a garage door installation as soon as possible. 

Your Garage Door Keypad or Remote Is Not Working 

It is second nature to press your garage door keypad or remote when you are ready to leave or enter your home. When your garage door keypad or remote is not working, it can be an extreme inconvenience, but also a clear sign of needing a garage door opener installation. 

Your Garage Door Is Making Unusual Noises

When you notice your garage door is making louder noises than usual, especially squeaking or grinding, you may need to schedule an appointment for garage door repair. Depending on the type of garage door opener, your garage door should make little to no noise at all. So when it does, you should call professionals to determine if you need a garage door opener replacement. 

Your Garage Door Is Not Opening

There are many reasons why your garage door may not be opening. However, if you open your garage door manually and it is not heavy, the problem is likely your garage door opener. If a broken garage door opener is the issue with your garage door opener, then you should consider finding a garage door company for garage door opener replacement.

Your Garage Door Moves Slower Lately

If your garage door is opening slower than usual, it can be a clear sign that you need new garage door opener installation. This happens because the motor can’t exert as much power to lift the weight of your door. If you notice your garage door rising lowly or making loud noises as it operates, then you should have a garage door opener replacement before your garage door opener goes out completely.
