Garage Door Motor Replacement Discussion and Cost (Updated April 2026)

troublesome

Door Failures
For the last few years, it has now escalated to the point where
simple maintenance is no longer the answer.
The door motors have exceeded their service life and failures are becoming more common place. It is our recommendation you replace your door motor soon to avoid being locked out at the worst possible time.
Cloud Upgrade
We completed a major upgrade to our security system / door relay system to a “cloud” system,
on the insistence of our system provider PTI, primarily to restore the email
notification to owners when their door is opened. We were told the new cloud
system would restore the email notifications. (They stopped the email
notifications on the old system without telling us, even after numerous trouble
tickets were filed and never responded back). Long story short, they never provided the email notification system. Not to be deterred, we came up with our own solution.
WIFI Camera Notifications
While it was (and is) very frustrating dealing with PTI, there is a silver lining. We have installed WIFI in all the garages now. The WIFI opens up many possibilities moving forward especially for security purposes. We hope to leave PTI in the dust very soon.
You can now install your own personal security camera that will visually notify you if anyone enters your garage door right to your cell phone. They are less that $100 and work very well with our WIFI system. The installation is easy and should only take 10 minutes or so. Some of the systems are as follows:
Ring Camera
Google Nest Cameras
Blink Cameras
MYQ
All of these cameras are available on Amazon, Home Depot. Target, WalMart etc.
Additionally, you can download a free app to your cell phone MYQ that will allow you to open your garage door from your smart phone, and will tell you if your garage door is open or closed. (Requires a current garage door opener.) MYQ also has the capability to support cameras inside your garage.

Garage Door Dust Control
This is your total solution for garage dust control
...Read More
Garage dust control has been an ongoing issue for some garages. The solution is to add weather stripping to the sides and top of the garage door. While this may seem to be a DIY project, keep in mind these garage doors are 14' tall, and working from a ladder at the height is NOT recommended. Lorenzo, from Prorise (Mentioned above) has the ability to install any and all of the weather stripping you will see on the link below. Our doors are made by Cloplay.
Here is a great source for all types of weather stripping
