The door won't open or closeUsually a failed logic board, capacitor, motor, or travel module — or a tripped safety sensor. We diagnose the exact cause instead of guessing.
The remote or keypad stopped workingOften a reprogramming issue, a worn receiver, or a dead remote battery. We carry the right remotes and keypads for the Sommer lineup.
It's gotten loud or runs roughNew noise or rough travel points to worn drive components or loose hardware. We track down the source and fix it.
The door reverses before closing, or won't stay shutAlmost always the safety sensors (photo eyes), the travel limits, or the force settings. Quick to diagnose, quick to fix.
The motor runs but the door doesn't moveThe drive has disengaged or a gear has stripped. We re-engage the trolley or replace the gear assembly.
myQ or Wi-Fi won't connectCould be the logic board, the home network, or a firmware issue. We get the Sommer EVO-2060 back online and walk you through the myQ app.

Installing the Sommer EVO-2060 in Phoenix & the East Valley
Thinking about putting a Sommer EVO-2060 on your garage? Here's how Farnsworth handles it.
1
We source the opener for you
You don't need to track down the Sommer EVO-2060 yourself. We stock and source Sommer openers for our clients and bring the right one to your home.
2
Professional install, done right
Direct drive openers have very few moving parts, but the fixed chain rail still has to be mounted true. We set the Sommer EVO-2060 up for the quiet, smooth operation it's built for.
3
Tuned, tested, and explained
We balance the door, set the travel limits and force, test the safety reverse, program your remotes and the myQ app, and walk you through everything before we leave.

Signs It's Time to Replace Your Opener
A garage door opener is easy to ignore until it strands you. If any of these sound familiar, it's worth a conversation:
Your opener is 10–15 years old or older — motors and logic boards wear out, and parts get harder to find.
It still uses a fixed code instead of rolling-code security, which leaves your garage vulnerable.
It has no auto-reverse safety system, or the reverse is unreliable — a serious hazard with kids or pets.
It's slow, loud, or shakes the whole garage every time it runs.
It has no battery backup — so a Phoenix monsoon outage locks you out (or in).
It can't connect to your phone, and you want to check or close the garage from anywhere.
The Sommer EVO-2060 brings smartphone control and modern security — and we can have it installed before you know it. Learn more about opener repair & replacement, or call (602) 935-9766 and we'll tell you honestly whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense for your door.

Farnsworth Pro Notes
What We Watch For on the Sommer EVO-2060
It runs on 128-bit Rolling Code security. We make sure any remotes, keypads, or accessories we add are matched to that protocol so nothing gets locked out.
