What We Install

Every Type of Garage Door Opener, Installed Right

Whether you are replacing a worn-out opener or putting one on a new door, we help you pick the right drive type and horsepower for your door, then install it, program your remotes and keypad, and haul off the old unit. We install openers every day across Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Owasso, Oklahoma City, Edmond, and the rest of the metro.

  • Belt drive openers - The quiet choice. Best for attached garages and bedrooms over the garage. Our most-installed opener type.
  • Chain drive openers - The workhorse. Durable, budget-friendly, and right for detached garages where noise matters less.
  • Wall-mount (jackshaft) openers - Mounts beside the door instead of overhead. Frees up ceiling space and is the answer for high-lift or cathedral-ceiling garages.
  • Smart / Wi-Fi openers - Open, close, and monitor your door from your phone with myQ or Aladdin Connect. We set up the app and connection before we leave.
  • Battery backup - Keeps the door working through Oklahoma storm-season outages. Available on most models we install.
  • The right horsepower - A single-car steel door and a heavy wood double door need different motors. We size the opener to your door’s weight so it lasts.

Already bought an opener from the hardware store? We install customer-supplied openers too. Not sure which drive type fits your garage? Learn more about opener types and the models we carry.

Time to Replace?

Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Opener

Openers do not last forever. If yours checks more than one of these boxes, replacement usually beats another repair:

  • It’s 15+ years old - past its designed lifespan
  • No safety sensors or rolling-code remotes (pre-1993 security)
  • Loud enough to hear from inside the house
  • Repeated repairs in the last year or two
  • No battery backup for storm-season power outages
  • You want smartphone control and it can’t be added

Genie 6170 wall-mount jackshaft garage door opener

Genie 6170 Jackshaft

The Genie 6170 is a wall-mount jackshaft opener - meaning it mounts directly to the garage door’s torsion bar instead of hanging from a rail on the ceiling. This frees up overhead space, eliminates ceiling vibration, and gives your garage a cleaner look. It includes Aladdin Connect for WiFi and smartphone control, plus a battery backup. The right choice for garages with high ceilings, low clearance, or when you just want to reclaim the ceiling space.

Why Professional Installation

Why Opener Installation Isn’t a DIY Job

The opener is the easy part - it’s everything it connects to that gets people hurt. The door’s springs are under hundreds of pounds of tension, and an opener installed on an unbalanced door will strain, wear early, and eventually fail. We check door balance, springs, and cables on every install, set the travel and force limits properly, and test the safety reversal before we leave.

The warranty angle: most manufacturers require professional installation for the full warranty to apply. Our installs are backed by our 5-year labor warranty on top of the manufacturer’s coverage.

  • Door checked before the opener goes up. Balance, springs, rollers, and cables - an opener can’t fix a door problem, so we catch it first.
  • Programmed and tested before we leave. Remotes, keypad, in-car HomeLink, the app if it’s a smart opener, and the safety-reversal test.
  • Old opener hauled off. We remove and dispose of the old unit - no trip to the dump, no opener sitting in your garage corner for a year.

We serve the full Tulsa metro - Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Owasso, Bixby, Jenks, Sand Springs - and the OKC metro from Edmond and Yukon down to Moore and Norman, including the Council Rd, Hefner Rd, and Britton areas of Oklahoma City.

Common Questions About Opener Installation

It depends on the opener you choose. A basic chain drive costs less than a smart belt drive with battery backup, and wall-mount units run higher. Installation itself is straightforward pricing - we quote the full price, opener and labor together, before any work starts. No overtime markup, same rate days, nights, and weekends.

A straight swap of an existing opener usually takes 1-2 hours. First-time installs (no existing opener) or wall-mount conversions take a bit longer. Either way it’s one visit - we bring the opener, install it, program everything, and haul off the old unit the same day.

Yes. If you already picked up an opener from Home Depot, Lowe’s, or online, we’ll install it, set the travel and force limits, align the sensors, and program your remotes. We’ll also tell you honestly if the unit is undersized for your door before we hang it.

Yes - smart openers are most of what we install now. We set up myQ (LiftMaster/Chamberlain) or Aladdin Connect (Genie), connect it to your home Wi-Fi, and make sure the app opens and closes the door before we leave. You can watch and control the door from anywhere.

It comes down to door weight. A single-car steel door is fine on 1/2 HP. A double door, or anything insulated or wood-faced, should step up to 3/4 HP or more. Newer DC motors rate power differently, so don’t get hung up on the number - tell us what door you have and we’ll size it right.

Yes, removal and disposal of your old opener is included with every installation. We take the old unit, the packaging, and any old rail hardware with us when we go.

It depends on where your garage is relative to your living space. Belt drive is significantly quieter and worth the extra cost if your garage is attached to your home or if there’s a bedroom above or adjacent to it. Chain drive is perfectly reliable and costs less - a good choice for detached garages where noise isn’t a concern.

Yes - more than most places. Oklahoma storms regularly knock out power, sometimes for hours. Without battery backup, your electric opener becomes a manual door until power returns. If you have an attached garage, losing opener access during a storm or emergency is a real inconvenience. We recommend the Genie 2128 or 6170 for this reason.
