Your garage door opener provides security and convenience—but when the garage door opener battery dies, you’re stuck without access at the worst time. At Mission Viejo Home Expert, we specialize in fast, affordable, and professional garage door opener battery replacements throughout Orange County.
Whether your battery backup has failed during a power outage or your remote has stopped responding, we’re here to restore function quickly and efficiently.
A failing opener battery doesn’t always stop working all at once. Watch for these signs:
Garage door remote stops responding
Wall-mounted keypad loses power
Opener light blinks repeatedly or flashes error codes
Garage door only opens manually
Power outage disables the entire opener
You’ve had the battery for 1–2+ years
If your opener isn’t working as expected—or stops functioning when the power goes out—it’s time for a garage door opener battery replacement.
Not all garage openers use the same type of battery. Here are the most common ones we service:
Installed inside the opener itself (typically LiftMaster, Chamberlain, or Craftsman models), these keep the opener working even during a power outage. Most last 1–2 years and are required by California law in all new installations.
Used in handheld remotes or keypads. Usually replaceable with coin-cell (CR2032) or AA/AAA batteries.
External control panels may also need periodic battery replacements if they’re not hardwired.
At Mission Viejo Home Expert, we offer full-service battery replacement for all types of garage door openers. Whether it’s your main opener backup, remote control, or wall keypad—we get it working again fast.
Diagnosis of battery-related issues
Removal of old battery
Installation of new, compatible battery

Warranty-backed replacement options
We handle all major opener brands: LiftMaster, Genie, Chamberlain, Craftsman, Linear, and more.
Since California SB-969 passed in 2019, all new garage door openers sold in the state must include a battery backup. This regulation was created after homeowners were trapped during wildfires due to inoperable garage doors.
So if your opener was installed before 2019 or doesn’t have a battery backup, it’s more than an inconvenience—it could be a safety hazard.
The price varies depending on battery type and model compatibility.
Backup battery unit (LiftMaster, Chamberlain): $60–$120
Remote or keypad battery: $10–$25
Service/labor fee: $40–$75 (waived with full tune-up)
