Common Issues We Fix

Rubbing or binding sections often come from bent tracks or failing rollers. Loud banging may indicate worn hinges or a cracked strut. Random reversals usually trace back to misaligned sensors or force settings. We resolve root causes so problems don’t return.

Preventative Tune‑Ups

Regular lubrication, balance checks, and hardware tightening extend the life of your door and opener. Our tune‑ups include alignment, fastener torqueing, spring adjustments where needed, and travel/force recalibration for safer daily operation.

Safety First

We always test photo‑eyes and automatic reversal after any repair. Your door should stop and reverse when it contacts an obstruction and should never operate with damaged cables or springs.

FAQs

Why does my door reverse at the floor?

Force or travel limits may be off, or the floor is uneven. We’ll calibrate settings and adjust limits for a tight seal without false reversals.

Is my opener strong enough?

Openers don’t “lift” the full weight. Balanced doors require minimal force. We weigh your door and correct the balance to spec.
