Why is My Garage Door Opener Beeping?

Garage Door Opener Beeping

Is your garage door opener driving you up the wall with non-stop beeping? Noticing something out of the ordinary with your garage door is always going to be a cause for concern. After all, when this piece of machinery goes bust, it can prevent you from being able to leave your home and attend to other important tasks and responsibilities throughout your day.  

Luckily, as experienced garage door technicians, we’ve pretty much seen it all here at Professional Garage Door Services. An opener that beeps constantly is nothing new to us. With that said, we’re willing to help you get to the bottom of it. 

In this article, we’ll be going through some of the possible reasons why your garage door opener won’t stop beeping:

Failed Battery

If your garage door opener is beeping every 30 seconds and you notice a red or orange light flashing alongside it, then it means that your battery is out, or well on its way out. Keep in mind that this is not the case with all garage door models- some have backup batteries or rechargeable batteries installed. Of course, if your battery is having problems recharging, then you’ll be needing to find and replace the battery in your overhead unit as well. The battery can be found behind a battery door, which you’ll probably need to open using a screwdriver. Make sure you dispose of the old battery appropriately. If you’re unsure of which battery you’ll need to replace it, you can always call Professional Garage Door Services for help on getting the appropriate parts. 

Backup Battery Mode

In order to avoid having to manually operate their garage door for a little while after their battery has run out, a lot of homeowners have backup batteries installed. Backup batteries also act as a safety net during power outages, allowing for peace of mind and convenience. Another reason your garage door may beep is because it’s entered into this backup battery mode. Fortunately, this is not a warning sign of anything serious; it’s merely an indication that your garage door opener is running on the backup battery.

Sensor Alignment Required

Another reason why your garage door opener may beep is because the safety sensors aren’t aligned properly. If your sensors aren’t aligned properly, it can prevent your garage door from closing completely. This will cause the opener to beep, acting as a warning sign. Other reasons why your garage door may be refusing to close include worn or broken cables, or spring that are under high tension or broken. If you’re experiencing any of these, you need to call a garage door technician right away. 

Sick of Non-Stop Beeping? Call Professional Garage Door Services

It’s always better to be safe than sorry when it comes to your garage door. So, if your garage door continues to beep even after you’ve replaced the battery, or if it’s not operating on backup battery mode, then we’d recommend giving Professional Garage Door Service a call for fast and convenient garage door services. Keep in mind that DIY garage door repairs can be confusing, time-consuming and potentially dangerous. Alternatively, you can have the issue resolved as quicky and efficiently as possible when you trust in an experienced and reliable garage door technician like us.

I called Ryan when my roller door would not open. He was willing to help me trouble shoot the problem, listening to me frustratingly rant. I then had an unexpected emergency and he still took the time to tend to property for me. Legend of a human, extremely helpful.

Absolutely can not recommend these guys enough! My garage door completely died with no warning and no function at all! On a weekend! Hubby works away, leaving me and the little one alone most of the time and I was not safe with a non functioning garage door. Within just a few hours, Tony arranged ?Drew? To come out and replace the dead motor, key all the remotes (including an extra one!) In lightning speed, with 100% professionalism, excellent workmanship, a demo and explanation of how to use all the buttons including how to operate in a power outage. If you need high quality products, excellent workmanship and friendly customer service, do not look any further!

I cannot recommend Professional Garage Door Services enough – with Ryan being everything you could want in a tradesperson. When my garage door opener appeared to have died, I called a couple of companies & was given simply a replacement cost. However when I called & spoke with Ryan, he spent 10 minutes talking me through different ways to check if it was indeed a problem with the opener & not an electrical issue within or around my house. Who does that?!There was absolute transparency about the installation process and cost & everything was delivered as discussed. To put it simply – Ryan’s just really good at his job! so if, like me, you’re hit with an unexpected repair or replacement of your garage door opener, my advice would be to just call PGDS – you won’t need to make a second call.

My roller door broke today. I call these folks, spoke with Ryan who was busy but said he could be at my place this afternoon. True to his word, he came and gave me some options. He had all the items on-board and within one hour the door had a new motor and rail and it's like new. And no problems with the cost either.Thoroughly recommend these folks. Good honest, prompt and friendly service with the product guaranteed too.Professional, not just in name, but in nature. A big Thankyou !!

Our garage door had been faulting for some time, baffling other repairers. When it finally and completely failed on a Tuesday afternoon, we rang and booked Ryan for the following morning. He turned up slightly early and had the whole problem sorted out within an hour at a very reasonable price. Brilliant service. Thank you

I have an old manual roller door with not much room at either end. I asked about 10 different companies and they all said that I could not fit a motor to it and that I required a new tilt door ($1700). I sent my pics to Ryan and he manged to find the parts and fit a super quiet Merlin Motor to my door within two days. Awesome Service and thank you again Ryan.

Amazing service, honest and reliable and straight to the point.Smashed into my own garage door due to faulty aftermarket remotes (from another company) and fried the motor early in the morning. Spoke to Tony, he asked for some pictures of the damage, he called me back gave me 3 possible outcomes and quotes and organised a time to have a look and fix the problem.Tony came down in the in the evening while on his way home after an emergency job, he could of rescheduled for the next day but he squeezed us in.He came and not only straighten up the banged up panels but also replace the faulty motor all very quietly and quickly, it was the most expensive quote out of the 3 he gave me as the motor was dead, but not a dollar more than what he quoted me and I was aware of it.Tony is an absolute legend, totally recommended this company thumbs up all around 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Thank you again and kind regardsApologies to your wife on the missed parmigiana.
