QUICK ANSWER
Want a new garage door opener? We install and program it in one visit. Tell us how loud your old one is and whether you want phone control, and we will suggest a fit.
A new opener should fit your door’s weight, your garage, and how your family uses it. A mismatch gets loud or wears out early.
When it’s time for a new garage door opener
The motor is failing
Repeated repairs add up, and an aging unit may cost more to keep than to replace.
You want quiet or smart features
Older chain units are loud and lack phone control.
The safety features are outdated
Newer openers include better sensors and rolling-code security.
HOW AURA FIXES IT
We install the opener, set the travel limits, test the safety sensors, and program your remotes and keypad. We check the door’s balance first. The price comes first, and most installs are finished in one visit.

Belt drives run quietest, chain drives cost less and handle heavy doors, and wall-mount units save ceiling space. Wi-Fi models let you check the door from your phone. We install models from LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, and Overhead Door, and we balance the door first, since a new opener on a bad spring will not last. See belt-drive openers or smart openers for options.
What’s included in a garage door opener installation
A good opener install starts with the door, not the opener. We check the springs and balance first, since a new opener on a heavy door won’t last. Then we mount the rail and motor, install the safety sensors and wall control, program your remotes and keypad, and set the force and travel limits.
Before we leave, we test the auto-reverse with you, show you the manual release, and set up the phone app on Wi-Fi models. We also take the old opener down if you want it gone.

Garage door opener installation in Houston: common questions
How long does an opener installation take?
Most installs are done in one visit. We balance the door, mount the opener, set the limits, test the sensors, and program your remotes.
Which opener brands do you install?
We install LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, and Overhead Door models, and we can help you choose based on noise, features, and door weight.
What size garage door opener do I need?
Most single and double steel doors with good springs run fine on a 1/2 HP or 3/4 HP equivalent opener. Heavy wood or oversized doors may need more. The springs do the lifting, so balance matters more than horsepower.
Can you install a smart opener that works with my phone?
Yes. Many LiftMaster, Chamberlain, and Genie models connect to Wi-Fi so you can open, close, and check the door from your phone. We set up the app with you before we leave.
Will a new opener work with my old remotes?
Usually not. Newer openers use rolling-code security that older remotes don’t speak. We program new remotes and a keypad as part of the install.
