Is your garage door not opening or closing? A non-working motor is very often the reason why. Your opener is basically the box that sits in the middle of your garage on the ceiling if you have a garage door, or on the side of the door if you have a roller door. It is the heart of your system. It pulls your garage door up and that is how the door opens. On top of that, your opener usually also acts as the lock for your garage door and keeps it secured.

Garage Door Opener, Roller Door Motor, Chain or Belt Drive, We Handle It All

The openers for different types of doors are not the same at all. In garage doors, the motors are completely different from the motors used for roller doors, and one will not fit the other.
Even if it is only a garage door motor, each motor comes with different horsepower, different size, and different strength.

We at Vibe are experts in all types, and before replacing or repairing, we provide you with free advice on which model is the most suitable for your door.
This way, you can be sure that the opener will last for many years.

Garage Door Opener Repair VS Replacement

When we receive a call or arrive at a customer’s home because the opener is not working, there are two options: repair or replace the motor. Many times, when your motor is not working, it is possible to repair it. Of course, repairing the motor is the cheaper option, but sometimes it is not possible because the motor is too old or the company that made it no longer exists and there are no replacement parts. There are also many cases where we recommend simply replacing the motor, for example if the motor is very old, or if you want a technological upgrade (like an opener with a camera), etc. And of course, if we see something unsafe in the motor, we immediately recommend replacing it. The technology and models of garage door openers these days are advancing very quickly. If you need repair or replacement service, you can rely on us at Vibe that not only will we do the job in the best way, we will also give you full advice on whether repair or replacement is recommended in your situation.
