The Five Most Common Garage Door Problems
Most likely, you do not think about your garage door much thought. It's fine until it stops working. There are some problems that are fairly common which have been identified below, as well as the typical solutions to repair. The issues can be repaired by yourself, or you might require one of our garage doors in Durham repair specialists. Here are 5 Common Garage Door Problems:
Closing and Opening With A Thud
There are some possible causes to explain why doors open and close with a thud. It may be a broken spring or one of the cables for lifting may have been damaged or be close to breaking. It is crucial to examine the springs to determine whether they're damaged. Our experts in garage door repair can replace springs and cables to solve this problem.
The Hinges have been removed from the Door
For emergency repairs, call us if the door has become totally broken. The problem could be relatively minor. It can be caused by misalignment between the horizontal tracks or brackets that are loose, or bolts that are not tightened. Check to see if the bolts and brackets are securely fastened when the rollers remain in the tracks. Also, make sure that the tracks are aligned correctly and that everything is parallel.
The door closes a little when closing, but then opens again
If the closing door moves in a small amount, only to return to its initial position the reason is most likely due to the sensors not properly aligned, or the remote opener's sensitivity settings are too high. It is possible to raise the sensitivity of your remote and see if that can fix the issue. Check to see if your sensors are communicating properly even if they're not. They communicate using an invisible beam. any interruption is seen as if something or someone is in the way of the closing of the door. The control panel should be checked to confirm the sensors are properly aligned. There is a light indicator which should cease to blink.
Sometimes the Door is open, but not the other doors.
This problem could be due to the battery within your remote opener. This issue can be fixed through replacement of the batteries. However, for remotes manufactured prior to 1993, it's possible that one of your neighbors is using a remote with the same frequency of wave and transmission code. In this case you must change the transmission code. This will ensure that your door is able to open and close correctly.
Power Outage
If there was an interruption in power, your garage door will work like normal when power comes back. In the meantime, you'll need to open manually the door, with the emergency cord.
These are the 5 most frequent garage door problems. Call our experts for garage door repair for any additional issues. You might consider replacing your garage door with a new one depending on how severe the problem is.
