Just moved in? Reset the remotes and keypad
A new-to-you house usually comes with remotes and a keypad code that other people may still know.
- Change the keypad code. Previous owners, contractors, or neighbors may know the old one. Your opener's manual explains how.
- Clear and re-pair the remotes. On many openers, holding the learn button on the motor unit erases every paired remote and keypad. Then pair only the ones you have.
- Find the manual release and make sure everyone in the house knows when it's safe to use: power out, door closed, springs intact.
- Opener old or acting up? A technician can price a repair next to a new opener. See opener repair.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can a garage door technician get to me in Apple Valley?
It depends on the company's schedule, the time of day, the weather, and where you are. Choose "ASAP" or "Today" and the company will tell you its availability when it calls. We can't promise an arrival time.
How much does garage door repair cost in Apple Valley?
We couldn't find an Apple Valley-specific figure. Angi's Minneapolis garage door repair cost guide (updated August 9, 2026) puts the average repair at about $242, often $150–$366, with broken springs at $150–$350. The company you're connected with sets its own price.
My keypad stopped working. Do I need a repair?
Not always. Put a fresh battery in the keypad first, then re-pair it with the opener using the learn button described in your opener's manual. If the opener doesn't respond to the wall button either, the problem is the opener or its power, and the company can help.
Are the garage door companies licensed?
Minnesota doesn't issue a state license for companies that only install or repair garage doors and openers. Ask the company for proof of liability insurance, a written price, and its warranty terms before work starts.
