Garage door tune-up service FAQs

Garage door tune-up costs vary by market and are dependent on the garage door’s condition. As an American Home Shield member benefit, you get a set price for a standard garage door tune-up. This covers a safety inspection along with cleaning, lubrication, and adjustments to the door's springs, sensors, and other essential parts, plus reprogramming for standard remotes. If the tune-up turns up a separate repair need or your setup calls for anything beyond the standard service, like reprogramming smart or app-based controls, your Pro will go over next steps and any additional costs with you.

American Home Shield garage door opener coverage under a home warranty plan applies to the electrically powered garage door opener and its parts and components when they break down due to normal wear and tear. Routine garage door maintenance service, like an annual tune-up, is available as a separate member benefit to help prevent those breakdowns in the first place.

Having a qualified Pro perform a garage door tune-up on a yearly basis helps catch small issues, like worn rollers or loose hardware, before they turn into bigger, more expensive repairs. An annual garage door tune-up is one of the simplest ways to help extend the life of your door and opener.

AHS offers coverage for garage door openers, but a routine garage door tune-up is a maintenance service offered as a benefit to members.

An AHS garage door tune-up includes a full safety inspection of one or two garage door openers, along with adjustments to keep everything running smoothly. Your Pro will check the door's safety sensors and springs, clean and lubricate the rollers and hinges, and clean and tighten electrical connections. The service also includes reprogramming for up to two standard garage remotes. If the inspection reveals a separate repair need that is a covered breakdown, you may opt into creating a service request in accordance with the terms of your home warranty plan - including required payment of your service fee.

As an AHS member, you can book a garage door maintenance service by logging into MyAccount or the AHS app and pay the fee. Then you’ll have the option to and choose from a list of available services and schedule a qualified, independent Pro to come take care of the tune-up.
