FAQs
Why won’t my garage door open?
Common causes include a broken spring, snapped cable, opener failure, blocked safety sensors, a locked door, or damaged track hardware.
Should I force the door open?
No. Forcing a stuck garage door can bend panels, damage the opener, or create a spring/cable safety hazard. Call for service if the door feels heavy or crooked.
