When your garage door won't budge, the remote doesn't respond, or the opener just hums in frustration - that's where Columbia Locksmith steps in. We might be best known for keys and locks, but our garage door service in Columbia MD is just as dependable. From noisy motors to unresponsive wall buttons, we fix the whole system - not just patch the symptoms.
Garage door acting up? Maybe it opens halfway and freezes. Or maybe the light blinks and clicks but nothing moves. We see it all the time. It could be a broken gear, a misaligned track, or a sensor that went rogue. We'll figure it out fast, explain it in plain language, and fix it without upselling gear you don't need.
These are the two most common calls we get. A chain might be loose, a belt might be broken, or the trolley may have slipped. In some cases, the opener is fine - the door itself is off track or the spring's blown. Our techs troubleshoot the whole setup, not just swap parts until something works. That's what separates a quick fix from a real repair.
We install all major models - including smart garage door openers that connect to your phone. Whether you want something basic and reliable or a Wi-Fi opener with soft-close, we'll help you pick the right horsepower, drive type, and features for your home. Our garage door opener installation service covers everything: wiring, calibration, safety sensors, remote syncing - and showing you how it all works before we leave.
If you searched for "garage door opener installation near me" and landed here - good news: you're in the right place. We don't just drop off the unit and leave you with a manual. We do it all - install, test, configure, and explain it clearly. You get a fully working system, not a weekend project gone sideways.
It depends on the model and setup. Most basic installs run $350-$500 including equipment. Higher-end smart openers with Wi-Fi, battery backup, and custom features cost more. We'll give you a straight quote upfront.
Sometimes. If the opener's over 10 years old and unreliable, replacement may be a smarter option. But we'll always assess before recommending anything. Some parts, like sensors or wall switches, are cheap fixes.
We can take care of light spring setups. For heavier torsion spring jobs, we partner with a trusted local pro who specializes in those repairs. Either way, you won't be left guessing.
Could be a broken belt or chain, a stripped gear, or the door being jammed. Call us before trying to force it - you could make the damage worse. We'll inspect and repair it properly.
We treat your garage like we treat your front door - with respect, urgency, and know-how. No padded invoices, no mystery fees, and no pressure to replace a whole system when a 15-minute fix will do the job. Whether it's a quick repair or a full upgrade, we handle your garage door needs the same day, without hassle.
Call Columbia Locksmith today if your garage door is misbehaving. We'll help you get back to easy mornings, smooth exits, and zero surprises when you hit the button.
