What we see on LiftMaster gates in Richardson

A senior customer in Richardson called on a Sunday because his LiftMaster sliding gate was not working properly. The circuit board had come loose and failed, and because a failed board stops charging the backup batteries, both 12V batteries had died with it.

We replaced the board and both batteries, reprogrammed and adjusted the system, added a wireless keypad and tested the gate. The rest of the operator was sound, so a full replacement was never needed. There was no service-call charge for the inspection, and the repair carries a two-year company warranty.

LiftMaster gate repair in Richardson: questions

My LiftMaster sliding gate stopped and the batteries are dead. Is it just the batteries?

Not always. On this Richardson job the batteries were dead because the circuit board had failed and stopped charging them. Replacing only the batteries would have bought a few days. We test the charging side before fitting new ones.

Do you come out on Sundays in Richardson?

Yes. This repair was a Sunday call. We run seven days a week and give you a real arrival window when you phone.

Is a LiftMaster circuit board worth replacing, or should I buy a new opener?

On a sound operator a board is usually far cheaper than a new unit, as it was here. If the operator has other worn parts too, we price both options so you can compare.

Gate Not Working Right Now?

We answer the phone 24/7. If you are stuck, call and we will talk you through the manual release before anyone arrives. See what counts as a gate emergency.
