Q: I pressed the button to put my door down and all of a sudden it went crazy! One side is a foot higher than the other, rollers are coming out of the track, and it will not budge. 

What in the world happened to my garage door? 

 

Q: Everything opens fine if I use the button on the wall, but not with my garage door remote. What should I do?

After you've double-checked that the battery in the device is fine and it still doesn't work, you probably just need a new garage door remote.

Some models can be purchased at home centers, but problems often arise since universal-type openers are often not designed for your specific model.

You're apt to save some time and trouble by consulting first with a service technician on this one.

Q: My garage door won't close all the way- or only closes when I hold the button on the wall. What should I do?


First check to see if the lenses of the sensors are dirty. There could also be something blocking them such as a broom or even leaves.

If that's the case,
this may be something you can take care of without assistance.

Sometimes it's a different problem with the safety sensors. It could also be that they are not aligned properly, or need replacement. 

You might try finding an obstruction first if you can find one, and getting it out of the way before trying again.



Q: The motor on my garage door opener sounds like it is running, but nothing is moving. What could be the problem?

A: If you have a Sears Craftsman, Chamberlain, or Liftmaster, the gears inside of the motor head may be worn out or stripped. If you have a Genie Screw Drive opener, the trolley may be worn out or stripped.

You may need to have your
gears or trolley replaced. Sometimes a complete service of your door and opener is recommended.

 

Q: How often should I service my door?
