There are several reasons why your garage door won’t open or close. The springs may need to be replaced, the main drive gear could be shot, or the trolley carriage could be broken. If your garage door is open and a spring is broken, the heavy door could come crashing down, causing injury. Call a professional immediately to repair your doors.
A problem with the safety sensor is usually the reason a door won’t close all the way. However, faulty gears, misaligned doors, or other mechanical issues could be at play.
Sometimes a loud grinding noise can be fixed by applying lubricant; however, there could be a bigger problem. The rollers, hinges, or springs may need to be replaced or the doors could be off alignment. Contact us immediately if you hear a grinding noise.
Usually a door comes off a track because it has been hit, but there can be other issues such as the horizontal track is not aligned with the vertical track or the rollers or lift cables are worn out.
