We Install Home Depot/Lowes Garage Door Openers

Project Overview & Location

Newly built homes often come with upgraded finishes—but sometimes lack key conveniences. In this case, our client had just purchased a brand-new home built by Lennar in the Olive Grove community of Rancho Cordova, CA, with the intention of turning it into a rental property.

Like many homes in this area, it did not include a garage door opener, which limited the property’s appeal to potential tenants. The client purchased a garage door opener from Home Depot and contacted SCF Garage Doors for professional installation.

This project represents another successful Rancho Cordova garage door opener installation delivered on time and with expert precision.

The Client’s Challenge: No Automatic Garage Door

Our client was preparing the home for renters but faced a key issue:
