If the door feels unusually heavy, doesn’t stay open, or you hear a loud snap, the springs may be damaged and should be inspected immediately for safety reasons.

What causes garage door tracks to become misaligned?
Tracks can shift due to regular use, impact, or loosened hardware. Misaligned tracks may cause the door to bind, drag, or come off its rails entirely.

If your door is severely damaged, outdated, or has frequent mechanical issues despite repairs, a full replacement may be the most efficient long-term solution.

Can insulation be added to an existing garage door?

What should I do if my garage door remote stops working?
Try replacing the batteries and reprogramming the remote. If the problem persists, the issue may be with the opener system or remote sensor and may need troubleshooting.

Is troubleshooting garage door issues something I can do myself?
Some basic issues like checking remote batteries or clearing sensor paths can be done yourself. For complex issues like spring or track problems, professional help is advised.

Why does my garage door reverse when closing?

How do I maintain my garage door to avoid future problems?
Regular maintenance such as lubricating moving parts, tightening hardware, and inspecting springs and tracks can help extend the life of your system and prevent costly repairs.

What’s the benefit of having insulation in my garage door?
