Authorized LiftMaster and Genie dealer. Belt, chain, and direct-drive openers installed with smart-home integration, battery backup, and 2-year parts & labor extension.
In Guntown, every opener install starts with the local picture — hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. We choose hardware that survives Mississippi's humid subtropical region, not whatever's cheapest on the shelf.
Guntown's weather writes the maintenance schedule. With hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year, doors here face damp garages that pit galvanized parts over time, storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, and frequent thunderstorms that drive rain into tracks and seals — and we stock the parts that stand up to it.
Across Lee County, the garage door problems we see again and again are corroded springs and cables in the humid air, rusted track hardware and seized rollers, rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs, and pitted galvanized hardware on older doors. If that sounds like your door, there's a good chance we can fix it today.
A new garage door opener install is the single best quality-of-life upgrade most homeowners make to their garage. Modern openers are dramatically quieter than 1990s-era chain drives, ship with smartphone control out of the box, include battery backup that meets modern battery-backup safety requirements, and add a layer of cybersecurity (rolling-code remotes) that older units cannot match. As an authorized LiftMaster and Genie dealer, we install models that homeowners cannot purchase at big-box retail, with longer warranties than the same-brand units sold on store shelves.
Every install includes haul-away of your old opener, programming of two remotes plus an exterior keypad, photo-eye safety calibration to UL-325 standards, MyQ or HomeKit setup, and a printed quick-start guide. We size the opener to your door weight — under-sized openers fail prematurely on heavy insulated doors, and we'll recommend a 3/4 or 1.25 HPS unit when the door warrants it.
We don't recommend a brand based on what's in the truck — we recommend based on noise tolerance (belt drive for bedrooms above the garage), reliability (LiftMaster 8500W for clean ceilings), or budget (chain-drive Chamberlain when value matters most). Honest sizing extends the opener's life and saves you money long-term.

Pre-2008 openers usually predate rolling-code security and can be defeated by code-grabbers. Any opener older than 15 years is also past its design life and a candidate for failure.
Chain drive in a noise-sensitive home
Chain drives transmit vibration through the ceiling. A belt drive cuts measured opener noise by 12–15 dB — meaningful if there's a bedroom above the garage.
No battery backup
Battery backup is required by code in a growing number of states (California’s SB-969 was among the first) and is a safety best practice everywhere. If your opener doesn't have a backup battery, you're operating outside current code and exposed in a power outage.
No smartphone control
If you've ever driven to work wondering if you closed the door, a MyQ-capable opener answers that for you. Smart features were premium ten years ago — they're now standard.
Motor housing rattles or hums
A failing gear assembly or capacitor produces audible motor noise even when the door is closed. This is a sign the opener is days-to-weeks from failure.
Common causes & what we fix
Door weight mismatch
A 1/2 HP opener on a heavy insulated steel door over-works the motor every cycle, leading to gear strip and capacitor failure within years instead of decades.
Power line surges
Grid surges damage opener logic boards. Surge protection at the receptacle costs $25 and prevents the most common cause of catastrophic opener death.
Missing lubrication on the rail
Screw-drive openers fail fast without lubrication on the carriage screw. Belt and chain drives are more forgiving but still benefit from annual service.
Photo-eye misalignment
Mis-aimed safety eyes cause the opener to refuse to close or to reverse repeatedly under no load — both stress the motor and shorten its life.
Builder-grade hardware
Many builder installs use the cheapest opener that meets minimum code. Replacing a builder-grade unit with a properly sized professional-grade opener can extend service life 2–3×.
