We’ve been serving North Wantagh families since 1945. What started as Maurice Heidelberg’s vision in the Five Towns area has grown into a trusted name throughout Nassau County, built entirely on word-of-mouth referrals and customer satisfaction.
Shai and his partner took over in 2011, but our commitment to quality work remained unchanged. We’ve built our reputation on showing up when we say we will, fixing things right the first time, and treating every customer’s home like our own. Customer satisfaction isn’t just a goal—it’s how we’ve stayed in business for nearly eight decades.
North Wantagh homeowners appreciate working with a local company that understands Long Island’s unique challenges. From coastal humidity that affects metal components to power outages that test backup systems, local expertise matters when you’re investing in your home’s daily functionality.
The installation starts with assessing your current setup and measuring your garage door’s weight and dimensions. This determines the horsepower requirements and opener type that will work best for your specific situation. Chain drive, belt drive, or screw drive—each has advantages depending on your garage layout and noise preferences.
Next comes the actual installation work. The old opener gets removed if you have one, then the new motor unit gets mounted to the ceiling with proper support brackets. The rail system gets installed and aligned, connecting the opener to your door with the appropriate hardware. Safety sensors get positioned and tested to ensure your door reverses if anything blocks its path.
The final step involves programming your remotes, setting the travel limits, and testing all safety features. You’ll get a complete walkthrough of how everything works, including the manual release for emergencies. Most installations take four to six hours, though complex setups or older garage configurations might need additional time to ensure everything operates perfectly.

North Wantagh’s coastal location means your opener needs to handle humidity and salt air exposure. Quality installations use corrosion-resistant components and proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup that can damage electrical connections. The mounting system gets reinforced to handle Long Island’s occasional strong winds without creating vibration or noise issues.
Smart opener features like WiFi connectivity and smartphone control are becoming standard in North Wantagh homes. These allow you to monitor and control your garage door from anywhere, receive alerts if the door is left open, and grant temporary access to service providers or family members. Battery backup systems ensure your door still operates during power outages, which can be crucial during storms when you need to move vehicles or access emergency supplies.
