How will I know if my door opener can still be repaired?

Specialists at Garage Door Repair Stafford advise you to check the date of manufacturing for your door opener. The ones manufactured prior to 1993 should be replaced. Any door opener, be it a Liftmaster garage door opener or an Allister garage door opener, will not be equipped with infrared sensors if they were manufactured prior to 1993.

Do I need my entire door replaced or a section?

If you have a specific problem, it may be possible just to replace the section affected. However, if the section affected begins to affect any other parts of your garage door, the entire door may need to be replaced.
