Learn Before You Call
Understand common garage door issues and what to do about them.
Recognizing a Broken Spring
Springs carry the weight of your garage door. Learn what a failing spring looks like and why you shouldn't try to fix it yourself.
Look for a two- to three-inch gap in the coil above the door. Usually the door won't lift, or lifts a few inches then stops. Call us immediately — a broken spring is not safe to ignore.
When Your Door Won't Close
A door that reverses, hesitates, or stops mid-close usually points to a few common issues. Here's how to narrow it down.
Check the photo-eye sensors first. They're the safety feature that stops the door if it detects an obstacle. Look for dirt or misalignment between the two units in your door frame.
Off-Track Doors: Safety and Solutions
A garage door that has come off its track needs immediate attention. Learn what caused it and what to expect from repair.
An off-track door is only partly supported and can drop without warning. Do not attempt to force it back or use the opener. Keep people and vehicles clear and call a professional.
Garage Door Maintenance: What Actually Matters
Regular maintenance extends door life and keeps everything running smoothly. Here's what to do and when.
Lubricate hinges, rollers and springs twice a year. Test the balance by disconnecting the opener and lifting the door by hand — it should move smoothly and stay where you leave it.
