Question 1

How much does garage door opener installation cost in Denver?

Accepted Answer

Labor-only installation of an opener you already bought is $185–$245. Supplied and installed: chain-drive $285–$385, belt-drive $385–$525, wall-mount jackshaft $625–$850. Every price includes the rail, safety sensors, remotes, and haul-away of the old unit.

Question 2

Do you install Metro Classic garage door openers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We install Metro Classic units along with LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Sommer and Marantec. If you already bought a Metro Classic opener online, we do labor-only installation for $185–$245 and program the remotes and keypad for you.

Question 3

How long does opener installation take?

Accepted Answer

A standard replacement on an existing rail takes 2–3 hours. A first-time install with new ceiling brackets and wiring takes 3–4 hours. Wall-mount jackshaft conversions run about 4 hours.

Question 4

Does Colorado require battery backup on garage door openers?

Accepted Answer

Battery backup is not mandated statewide in Colorado the way it is in California, but with Front Range wind and snow outages we install battery-backup models by default. It adds roughly $60–$90 and keeps the door working through a power cut.

Question 5

Belt drive or chain drive for a Denver home?

Accepted Answer

Belt drive if there is a bedroom over or beside the garage — it is dramatically quieter and handles cold better. Chain drive is fine for detached garages and costs about $100 less.
