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 extend the life of your door and opener.

An AHS home warranty plan may cover the repair of a garage door opener when it experiences a covered breakdown. But a routine garage door tune-up is considered maintenance rather than a repair and wouldn’t be included in standard coverage. With American Home Shield, you have access to a garage door annual tune-up service as a convenient member benefit.

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 turns up a separate repair need, you'd place a new service request to have it addressed.

As an AHS member, you can book a garage door maintenance service by logging into MyAccount or the AHS app. 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.
