The two brands that need their own tools
Almost every residential door in Omaha is standard torsion hardware, and standard hardware is what the van carries. Two exceptions come up often enough to be worth naming: Wayne Dalton's TorqueMaster, where the spring lives inside the tube, and the direct-drive European heads.
| Brand | Notes |
|---|---|
| Overhead Door / Raynor | Standard torsion hardware on the residential lines. Nothing unusual to source. |
| Amarr | Sections and hardware are widely available and the tracking is standard, which keeps repair costs sensible. |
| Genie | Screw-drive and belt-drive heads. Intellicode remotes and carriage assemblies are the usual failure points, and both are parts rather than a reason to change the opener. |
| Craftsman | Built on Chamberlain internals for most of their production run, so the gear kits and boards are shared and readily available. |
| Chamberlain myQ | Wi-Fi hubs and the app side fail more often than the mechanics do. Usually a re-pair rather than a replacement. |
| Wayne Dalton | The TorqueMaster counterbalance is a spring inside the tube rather than on it, and it needs its own tools and its own parts. We carry them. |
If yours isn't there, it's almost certainly still standard torsion hardware. Read us the badge on the door or the model number off the opener when you call and we'll confirm before the van is loaded.
