Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Genie opener make a grinding noise?
Genie screw-drive openers need lubrication every 6–12 months with a screw drive lubricant (not WD-40). A dry screw drive grinds loudly. If lubrication doesn't fix it, the drive may be worn.
Can you fix older Genie openers from the 1990s–2000s?
In many cases, yes — but parts availability for very old units is limited. We'll let you know upfront if repair is practical or if replacement is more cost-effective.
What's the difference between Genie and Overhead Door openers?
They're the same company — Genie is the consumer brand sold at hardware stores; Overhead Door is the commercial/professional brand. They share some parts but are different product lines.
My Genie opens fine but won't close. What's wrong?
Most likely a sensor issue. Check the safety sensors near the floor — if either light is blinking, they need realignment. Also check for anything blocking the infrared beam.
Can you install a new Genie opener same-day?
Yes — we carry Genie openers for same-day installation. We'll recommend the right model for your door and ceiling height.
