Broken garage door springs
The most common issue you will face with your garage is a broken spring, and this can cause the door to stop working.
The torsion spring is actually the main component in the garage door opener and the hardest working part of the whole Garage door system.
The opener does only a fraction of the actual lifting that is necessary to move your garage door.
Therefore, if the torsion spring stretches and breaks, the garage door opener will not be able to function and open the door.
SYMPTOMS
The symptoms of trouble with broken garage door springs include the door not operating properly.
There are 2 kinds of springs:
1) Torsion Spring -These springs are placed just above the garage door and can expand or contract as the door raises or is lowered. It looks like firmly coiled springs.
2) Extension Spring -These springs are positioned on the right and left sides of the garage doors and can stretch out and expand as the garage door lowers and contract when opening.
REMEDY
Garage door rollers need to be reset or replaced
The garage door rollers are responsible for the smooth operation of the doors.
These rollers are held in position with the help of brackets that are fixed to your garage and to the track.
Those garage doors over a decade old have faced several environmental factors and buildup from dust, lubricants, and oil. All these factors can start to take their toll and wear out those rollers.
The quality of the rollers gets hampered, and they can slip off the track from time to time.
Safety sensor malfunction or mis-alignment
Another common issue with a garage door is that it stops and then reverses if you want to close it.
It also makes a clicking noise, accompanied by the opener light flashing.
This clearly means that the safety sensors are out of alignment and the garage door will not close.
As one side of the track acts as the receiving eye sensor and the other side sends the signal, if any one of these sensors are knocked out of alignment, the receiving end will not get the signal.
This triggers the door to turn around.
SYMPTOMS
The door goes back up when you hit the wall button to close the door. You have to press the button down until the door shuts.
