What a garage door opener repair warranty in Porter usually does and doesn't cover
Warranties typically cover the motor and major internal components against manufacturing defects, but they rarely cover labor past the first year, and they almost never cover damage traced back to water exposure, a bad install, or wear on parts like sensors, rollers or the chain that aren't part of the motor unit itself. Sorting out which bucket a given failure falls into is most of the work before a claim gets filed.
