Automatic Garage Door Conversion in Winnipeg
Are you tired of manually opening and closing your garage door? An automatic garage door conversion is a fantastic way to increase convenience, safety, and the value of your home. At Assured Builders, we specialize in transforming your traditional manual garage door into a modern electric or automatic door, making it easier than ever to enter and exit your garage.

What is an Automatic Garage Door Conversion?
An automatic garage door conversion involves adding an electric opener system to your existing manual garage door. This conversion allows you to control your garage door with a remote, smartphone app, or even a wall-mounted switch. It’s a simple yet effective way to modernize your garage and add a touch of luxury and convenience to your home.
Why Should You Consider an Automatic Garage Door Conversion?
1. Convenience
One of the biggest reasons homeowners opt for an automatic garage door conversion is convenience. No more getting out of your car or manually lifting a heavy garage door. With an automatic system, you can simply press a button or use a smartphone app to open or close your garage door from the comfort of your car.
2. Safety
Automatic garage doors enhance your home’s security. With automatic features such as rolling code technology and smartphone control, you can open and close your garage from anywhere. This provides a sense of control, especially if you’re leaving your home for an extended period of time.
3. Increased Home Value
An automatic garage door is a desirable feature for prospective homebuyers. By upgrading your garage door system, you’re enhancing your property’s curb appeal and modernizing your home, which can add to its value.
4. Durability
Automatic systems typically come with advanced safety features, including sensors to detect obstacles in the door’s path. These sensors can prevent damage to both the door and any object in the way. Furthermore, electric doors often require less maintenance compared to manual systems, making them a long-term investment.
