Common Issues With Craftsman Openers
Craftsman openers are generally reliable, though there are a few parts that tend to wear down more quickly than others. We often get calls to repair the controllers or limit switches in Craftsman systems, which often means your garage door does not open or close correctly (or doesn’t move at all).
Other common opener issues that our expert repair technicians can fix include:
- Unresponsive sensors and photo eyes
- Remotes and wall buttons not working
- Problems with wiring
- Motor making noise but the door doesn’t move
- Door not closing or opening all the way
- Door closes then opens right back up
- Door moving on its own
- Damaged or misaligned tracks
- Flashing lights
- Broken springs and cables
Our technicians arrive with fully stocked trucks so they can resolve almost any Craftsman opener issue on the first visit. Using our 25-point inspection, we’ll thoroughly examine your Craftsman garage door openers and system to ensure that we provide the best solution tailored to your unique situation.
Why Do We Recommend Replacing Your Craftsman Garage Door Openers in Some Situations?
Our team here at Precision Garage Door Service in Wilmington offers you the best value solution for your unique garage door issue. Ultimately, this involves determining whether a repair or replacement is the best solution for your home. Some safety features, such as photoelectric eyes, are crucial for ensuring that you and your family can pass through your garage doors safely when entering and exiting your home.
Others require factoring in changes that Craftsman has made to their parts inventory since your garage door opener system was installed. This involves things like recalls or parts that are no longer being manufactured. Our expert team will only replace your system with parts that are of the highest quality. For your safety, if Craftsman isn’t currently producing it, our service technicians can’t install it.
Craftsman Opener Repair vs. Replacement
While you may think that your Craftsman garage opener needs to be replaced, it may simply need a quick repair. With our free 25-point inspection and amazing customer reviews, we will assess the situation and tell you exactly what you need. We carry the highest quality parts to repair most Craftsman openers, and we fix it right the first time. From the moment that you contact us to schedule your appointment to when our expert technician leaves your home, we’ll provide you with insights about the issues that we’re seeing and how we plan to improve them.
Here are the most common reasons your opener can’t be repaired and may need to be replaced:
- Your current opener was made before 1993. Older models of garage door openers don’t have today’s safety features in place. Therefore, we will not work on these openers and strongly recommend replacement for the safety of your household.
- Your opener doesn’t have photoelectric eyes. This means your opener doesn’t have a safety measure to prevent your door from closing on people, animals, or objects under the door.
- Your opener has been recalled. For your safety, we can’t repair any openers that have been recalled. Instead, we recommend replacing your garage door opener with a newer model.
- Your opener has been discontinued. In this case, replacement parts are often no longer available. To ensure that our technicians can completely fix your garage door system, we suggest replacing the system with an upgraded model instead.
Protecting Your Garage Door Opener Investment
Our professional garage door repair and replacement team comes prepared with all the Craftsman-specific knowledge to find the best solution for your garage door issue. However, there are some practical tips to keep in mind when determining whether your garage door needs maintenance soon:
- Look and listen: Strange noises or jerky movements are key indicators that something isn’t working right. While these changes may be subtle in the moment, making it unclear if they require repairs, they are telltale signs that parts of your garage door opener system have become worn out or aren’t aligned as they should be. If left unchecked, these issues can escalate and cause more serious safety concerns later.
- Do a chain check: If your Craftsman garage door system involves a chain mechanism, be sure to check that the chain hasn’t dropped down lower. Seeing a chain dragging lower will cause wear and tear on other parts of the system over time. Prevent the need for future replacements by contacting our expert team to address the issue promptly.
