Our Installation Process
A complete, professional installation from assessment to final testing. Here's what to expect.
Free Assessment & Recommendation
A Sears technician evaluates your door, measures the headroom, and recommends the right opener type and horsepower for your specific setup.
Old Opener Removal
We disconnect and remove your existing opener, rail, and mounting hardware. All old equipment is disposed of — you don't need to handle any of it.
New Opener Installation
The new unit is mounted, the rail is installed and aligned, and the drive mechanism is connected. Every bolt is tightened, every wire is secured.
Programming & Smart Setup
We program your remotes, pair your smartphone (for Wi-Fi models), set up voice assistant integration, and configure the keypad if included.
Safety Testing & Calibration
Photo-eye sensors are aligned, auto-reverse is tested, force and travel limits are calibrated, and the entire system is verified for safe, reliable operation.
