How much does a garage door opener installed cost?
A new garage door opener installed at Kooler runs $924 to $1,628 — one price covering the operator, the professional install, and haul-away of the old unit. The Kooler 2060 starts at $924; the connected, camera-equipped models and the wall-mount Prodigy 3 sit higher. Your Kraftsman matches the opener to your door and locks the exact price on-site with the Door Score.
What moves the price
The opener you choose sets the price. Everything below is one installed number — operator, install, and haul-away.
- The model. The Kooler 2060 (German Direct Drive) is the quiet, reliable base from $924. Sentinel and Sentinel 360 add battery backup, a camera, and bright lighting; the wall-mount Prodigy 3 frees ceiling space.
- Battery backup. The connected line has integrated battery backup — so your door still opens in a power outage, which matters on the Western Slope in winter.
- Camera and lighting. The Sentinel 360 adds a built-in 360° camera and 2,000-lumen lighting — real hardware, not a trim upgrade.
- Wall-mount conversion. Moving to a wall-mount Prodigy 3 clears the ceiling and adds an automatic deadbolt on every close, but it may need new mounting and wiring.
- Your door's weight. Heavier or taller doors need a stronger operator — a Kraftsman sizes it so the motor isn't fighting the door for its whole life.
The Door Score sets your exact price
Ranges tell you the neighborhood. The Door Score tells you your number. Every Kooler Kraftsman runs the same structured on-site read — door vitals, the operator, insulation, seals, rollers, hinges, and counterbalance — before any work starts.
That read is what makes the on-site price binding: no surprise add-ons, and you get Good / Better / Best options based on what the door actually needs. No diagnostic fee for the visit.
IDEA-certified Kraftsmen on staff
Colorado doesn't license garage-door contractors — so the credential that matters is the one the technician earns. Our Kraftsmen carry individual IDEA certifications from the Institute of Door Dealer Education and Accreditation, the certification arm of the International Door Association. Kooler is a Raynor Premier Authorized Dealer, an IDA Preferred Provider, bonded and insured.
It's our standard to certify every Kraftsman within their first 12 months. They start in our apprenticeship, then work toward certification — IDEA certifies a technician for residential after a year in the field, and the same for commercial.
