Common Garage Door Problems We Fix
Broken Garage Door Springs
Broken garage door springs are one of the most common reasons a garage door suddenly stops working. Springs carry the full weight of the door, and when one breaks, the door becomes extremely heavy and unsafe to operate. Homeowners often notice a loud bang, a door that won’t lift, or a door that drops quickly. Attempting to open or repair a door with a broken spring can cause serious injury or further damage. We replace both torsion and extension springs using high-cycle, industry-standard parts. Proper spring sizing and balance are critical to long-term performance. Our spring replacements restore smooth operation and extend the life of your entire garage door system.
Garage Door Won’t Open or Close
A garage door that won’t open or close properly can have several underlying causes. Common issues include broken springs, damaged cables, misaligned tracks, sensor problems, or opener malfunctions. Sometimes the door starts moving and stops halfway, or reverses unexpectedly. These problems can quickly become safety hazards if ignored. We perform a full system inspection to identify the exact cause, not just the symptom. Our repairs ensure the door opens and closes smoothly, evenly, and safely. Addressing the issue early helps prevent additional wear on other components and avoids more costly repairs later.
Garage Door Opener Problems
Garage door opener issues often show up as delayed response, grinding noises, intermittent operation, or complete failure. The problem may involve the motor, logic board, safety sensors, wiring, or remote controls. In many cases, homeowners assume the opener is bad when the real issue is mechanical resistance from the door itself. We service all major opener brands and models, diagnosing whether repair or replacement is the best option. Proper opener function depends on a well-balanced door system. Our goal is to restore reliable, quiet operation while protecting the lifespan of your opener.
Off-Track Doors & Broken Cables
An off-track garage door or broken cable is a serious safety concern and should never be forced open or closed. Cables work together with springs to lift and lower the door evenly. When a cable frays, snaps, or comes loose, the door may tilt, jam, or fall unexpectedly. Off-track doors often result from impact damage, worn rollers, or cable failure. We safely reset the door, replace damaged cables, and inspect all supporting hardware. Once repaired, we rebalance the system to ensure smooth and secure operation. Prompt repair prevents further damage to panels, tracks, and the opener.
