Thirty-one years — that is how long the hardware on an unchanged door here has been at work, because 1995 is the year with as many Aliso Viejo homes older than it as newer. Nice to see you here. Time passed is all that figure is: the part that failed shows itself at the door, on the springs, drums and cables, not in a build year. So call us, and we will start there.

Identify what your door is doing before you call. If it is one of these, do not keep operating it.
Your torsion spring has snapped under intense torsional load. Forcing the opener to lift the door without spring assistance will burn out the motor or snap the drive belt.
A stripped internal nylon drive gear or a blown starting capacitor. We carry complete carriage gear rebuild kits in our trucks to repair your system immediately.

We regularly perform comprehensive garage door maintenance (inspection, lubrication, adjustment, and component testing) to keep your system safe. We serve Aliso Viejo and the cities around it.
10,382 of Aliso Viejo's 20,370 homes were finished between 1990 and 1999 — about half the stock inside one decade, against 3,947 for the 1980s behind it. Whole streets run on the same clock, and the median build year of 1995 says roughly where the hands are. The CPSC gives an operator an average life expectancy of fifteen years, so an opener still on its original mounting from that build is into its second. The two federal opener dates — reversal on contact for units manufactured from January 1991, a secondary entrapment device from January 1993 — are about when the unit was built and not when the house was, so what a nineties address has overhead gets read off the label on the head unit rather than off the build year. The live question there is what the board, the gear and the rail have left. Worth knowing before that becomes a new door: since July 2019 the state has barred installing a replacement door onto an existing opener with no battery backup, whatever year that opener was made. Where the old unit has none, the door and the opener are one job.
