About fifteen years ago The “Overhead Door” Company bought out the Genie Company as a subsidiary. Genie’s openers were very reliable opener. We still encounters Genie openers aged close to thirty years; some have worked without any parts replacement.
Nowadays, Genie Openers are not as reliable as they use to be. We had many complaints on Genie products; most of them are from private consumers using the retail openers at Home Depot or Lowes.
Most complaints were due to malfunction or the rail, circuit board, gear, motor, etc. Some customers had to return the opener three times until they gave up and called us to install a new Liftmaster belt drive.
