How To Program New Garage Door Opener

Moved into a new home or have a new remote? Programming your garage door opener is very easy! Here’s how you do it:

• Step 1: Place a ladder beneath the garage door opener to reach the unit. 

• Step 2: Find the “Learn” button on your garage door opener. The learn button will be located on the same side as the antenna. The button may be either red, green, orange, purple, or yellow, and beside it will be a small LED indicator light. 

• Step 3: Press and release the “Learn” button.

• Step 4: Within 30 seconds of pressing the “Learn” button, press and hold the button on the remote control for three seconds, then release.

• Step 5: The LED indicator light will turn off and/or the garage door operator lights will blink to indicate that programming was successful. 

It’s as easy as that!

Like any mechanical component of your house, it’s important to take good care of your garage doors to make sure they operate smoothly year in and year out. Here are a few important tips:

• Lubricate moving parts: Spraying the overhead springs and rollers with a lubricant once a year can ensure your doors don’t get stuck.
• Keep the tracks and lasers clear: With the amount of movement in and out of garages, debris such as leaves, mud, and garbage can build up quick and interfere with tracks or lasers. Make sure to sweep or wipe away debris.
• Pay attention to sights and sounds: Does the door look misaligned? Does something rattle or shake? It’s important to recognize an issue before it happens so you can fix it quick or contact our maintenance professionals before it gets worse.
