The remote came with the rental, and the door it opens stops a few inches off the ground. Nobody in the house knows when it last worked. Tell us what it is doing and someone from our team calls you back.
What you get
What you get in Tempe
Garage door repair in Tempe often starts with a door that stops low, and that is not always a broken spring. A travel limit that drifted, a sensor knocked out of line by a bike, or a battery going flat in the remote will all make a working door behave like a broken one. You get the difference worked out at the door, the options in plain words, and a price agreed before the work starts.
- A door that opens the whole way and closes on the floor, not near it.
- Springs checked for tension before anything is replaced.
- Sensors squared up and tested, with the reverse working as it should.
- A price in dollars before the first part is ordered.

The doors in Tempe
Tempe is home to the main Arizona State University campus, and the 2020 census counted 180,587 people in the city. Some doors close to campus are on rentals, which changes the conversation. The person pressing the button did not choose the door and is often not the person who pays for the repair.
A door that has been through several tenants may have been through several remotes, a few code changes, and a round of someone pulling the manual release while it was under load. None of that leaves a mark. It shows as a door that reverses for no reason, a remote that only works up close, or a door that will not stay up.

4 questions
What people ask us in Tempe
Still have a question? Call (747) 243-2089 and say what the door is doing.
I rent near campus. Can this be sorted out with the owner?
Tell us which side of it you are on when you call. A tenant can pass the number on and describe what the door is doing, and the owner can approve the price. The person who authorizes the work is usually the owner.
The remote only works when I am right at the door. Why?
A remote that works up close and not from the street is often a battery on its way out, or a receiver picking up interference. On a rental, the remote may also be the wrong one for the opener. The battery is the cheap test.
The door goes down and then back up on its own. Is it broken?
That is the safety reverse doing its job. The 2 photo eyes at the bottom of the tracks have lost sight of each other, because of dust, sunlight across a lens, or a bracket that got knocked. It is a small fix and a dangerous thing to ignore.
How long does a spring take?
How long it takes depends on the door and on what else is worn. The bar comes down, the old springs come off, the new pair gets wound to the weight of the door, and the door is balanced before anyone leaves. Cables and rollers get looked at while the tension is off, which is when that work can be done safely.
