Your garage door opener does a lot of work, and when it fails, it can leave your garage stuck open or closed. Common culprits include worn drive gears, failing circuit boards, misaligned safety sensors, or a motor that's simply reached the end of its life.
Let's Roll Garage Doors provides expert garage door opener repair in Austin, TX for all major brands, including LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, and Craftsman. We also install new smart openers with app control and battery backup for homeowners ready to upgrade. See the LiftMaster openers we install.
Is It the Door or the Opener?
Before you call, there is a quick way to tell. With the door fully closed, unplug the opener and pull the red release cord, then lift the door by hand. A door that feels light is fine, and the opener is the problem. A door that feels very heavy, or drops when you let go, has a spring or cable problem and needs a pro. Never touch the springs or cables yourself. The full steps are in our door or opener test.

"Another company didn't show up for a service appointment this morning, so I called Let's Roll. Dudu was able to make a new appointment quickly, worked around my meeting schedule, and gave me an accurate heads-up when he was on the way. He was kind and courteous and really cared about making sure my garage door opener was working. I will be calling Let's Roll back for any future garage door needs."

Frequently Asked Questions
Why won't my garage door opener respond to the remote?
This is often caused by a dead remote battery, a misprogrammed remote, or interference from nearby radio devices. If a new battery doesn't fix it, the logic board or receiver may need repair.
Why does my garage door opener hum but the door doesn't move?
This usually means the drive gear has stripped or the belt/chain has slipped or broken. The motor is running, but the mechanism connecting it to the door isn't engaging.
How much does a new garage door opener cost installed?
Installed pricing starts at $459. Chain drives are most affordable, while smart Wi-Fi belt-drive openers run higher.
Can you reprogram my garage door remote without replacing the opener?
Yes, in most cases reprogramming takes just a few minutes and is included in any service call.
Why is my garage door opener not working when the door works fine manually?
If the door lifts smoothly by hand but the opener won't move it, the problem is in the opener system, not the door. Check in this order: (1) the trolley - if someone pulled the red release cord, the opener runs but nothing moves; re-engage it by running the opener until the trolley clicks back in; (2) power - confirm the outlet works; (3) the safety sensors - a blinking sensor light means misalignment. If those check out, it's likely a worn gear, circuit board, or motor issue. We'll tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
What does it mean when the garage door opener light blinks?
A blinking opener light is a diagnostic code. The most common meaning: the safety sensors are blocked or misaligned - the door won't close and the light flashes when you try. Clear anything in the door's path and check that both sensor units near the floor show solid indicator lights. If the blinking continues, count the flashes and check your opener's manual (each brand uses different codes), or call us and we'll decode it over the phone.
