What our Clients think about us
Your satisfaction is our priority.
What Is Opener Installation (Chain/Belt/Direct)?
A complete operator setup: mounting the opener, installing the rail or wall unit, wiring safety sensors, programming limits/force, pairing remotes/keypad/app, and verifying UL 325 safety—all matched to your door’s weight, balance, and track geometry.
Chain-drive: Durable, value-forward; audible in attached garages.
Belt-drive: Quiet, smooth; great for rooms above.
Direct-drive (jackshaft): Wall-mounted, frees ceiling space; ideal for low-headroom/high-lift and heavy/custom doors.
Why Choose Urgent Garage Doors
One accountable team: Sizing → installation → programming → training under a single PM/tech.
Every configuration: Rail/trolley units (chain/belt) or jackshaft wall-mount for low headroom/high-lift.
Occupied-space pros: Clean wiring, surge protection guidance, same-day cleanup.
Door-first approach: We balance and tune the door so the opener isn’t masking mechanical issues.
Immediate Actions (What to Do Now)
Note your door size/material (single/double, insulated, full-view glass, wood).
Measure headroom and snap photos of the ceiling/side walls near the header.
Decide on must-haves (battery backup, Wi-Fi/app, camera, keypad).
Call our team—we’ll match the right drive type and horsepower to your door.
Common Scenarios We Handle
Noisy, aging openers needing quieter belt-drive replacements
Low-headroom/high-lift systems that require jackshaft operators
Power outages → battery-backup units for reliable access
Smart home upgrades (Wi-Fi app control, camera, schedules, alerts)
Heavy/insulated or glass doors needing correct motor class & soft-start/stop
Safety & Site Control
Protect work areas; lock out the old opener; verify door balance and hardware condition.
Assessment & Sizing
Confirm door weight/size, lift type, and headroom; select chain/belt/jackshaft and horsepower/torque class.
Removal & Prep
Remove old opener/rail; install proper header bracket and support; tidy existing low-voltage runs.
Professional Installation
Mount opener (rail/trolley or wall-mount), hang to structure, wire photo-eyes and wall station; install battery backup and keypad as selected.
Programming & Safety
Set travel limits and force; test UL 325 photo-eye reversal; pair remotes, keypad, and Wi-Fi/app.
Walkthrough & Cleanup
Demonstrate features, create owner account for the app, review maintenance & surge protection, and leave the site clean.

Costs & Timelines (What to Expect)
Typical duration: 60–120 minutes per opener; jackshaft or complex wiring may take longer.
Key cost drivers: Drive type (chain/belt/jackshaft), horsepower/torque, battery backup, camera, keypad, existing wiring/ceiling structure, surge protection, and low-headroom/high-lift geometry.
Estimate clarity: Line items for opener head/rail or jackshaft kit, controls/sensors, accessories (battery/camera/keypad), installation, and haul-away.
Insurance & Claims Help
If the install follows impact/surge/lightning events, we’ll provide photo documentation and a concise narrative for your records.
Separated scopes: Door repair vs. opener replacement priced clearly.
(Coverage varies by policy; not financial advice.)
Risks of Waiting (Why Act Now)
Safety non-compliance if old sensors are missing or bypassed
Door and opener damage from operating an out-of-balance door
Security gaps without rolling-code and app alerts
Access problems during outages without battery backup
Methods, Materials & Quality Standards
Sizing: Match horsepower/torque to door weight/insulation; soft-start/stop where available.
Mounting: Structural anchorage at header and hangers; vibration isolation for quiet.
Safety & Security: UL 325 photo-eyes, proper force settings, rolling-code remotes, vacation lock.
Wiring: Clean low-voltage runs; labeled conductors; surge protection guidance.
Smart Setup: Wi-Fi/app pairing, guest access, schedules, alerts; camera where desired.
Low-Headroom/High-Lift: Jackshaft preferred; ensure correct dead-shaft and sensor placement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which drive type should I pick?
Belt-drive for quiet (best near bedrooms).
Chain-drive for value in detached garages.
Direct-drive (jackshaft) for low headroom/high-lift or to free ceiling space.
Do I need battery backup?
Highly recommended—keeps access during power outages and is required in some jurisdictions for new installations.
Will you set up the app and keypad?
Yes—we pair devices, create your account, and test remotes/keypad/app before we leave.
Can my old rail stay?
Typically no; rails are opener-specific. We install the matched rail/drive for safety and warranty.
My door is heavy (insulated/glass)—is that OK?
We size the motor/torque and verify door balance so the opener works within spec.
What warranties are included?
Manufacturer coverage on the opener/rail/accessories plus our workmanship warranty; details are on your proposal.
