Garage Door Problems

A garage door is something you shouldn't need to think about very much. When you arrive at your residence, you need to be able to press the remote button and the door should open and close without any problems. Yet, regrettably, bad things happen, and it might not always work as you expect.

There are a multitude of things which might go wrong with your garage door at any time. It could get stuck open, causing a security problem. It could get stuck closed, requiring you to leave your automobile or products needing storing outside, open to thieves, or inclement weather. Worse yet, it could get stuck closed with your vehicle inside, and you may not be able to get to your job or an important appointment. A door that becomes stuck midway is also a safety and security problem.

If you unintentionally backed your car into your door when attempting to drive out of the garage and hurt the panels in the process, try to stay clear headed. Many individuals have done this, unintentionally pushing down on the gas instead of the brake. In areas with icy winters, it's not uncommon for people to slide on an ice covered driveway and smash into the garage door.

If you have damage or any other thing wrong with your door, you will need to take care of the problem soon. Garage door damage not only hurts your home's appearance, it can trigger a prospective safety and security threat and also leave your garage door vulnerable to more damage.

Some of the most common reasons people need garage door repair in Anchorage, Alaska are listed below:

Garage Door Won't Open or Shut

A garage door that won't open or close might be caused by many different problems including broken springs or cables, broken or misaligned sensors, or a broken garage door opener. Our Anchorage garage door pros can do an evaluation to figure out the reason and get it working again for you.

Damaged or Frayed Garage Door Cables

Cables break over time.  We'll get a service technician out to install new cables or repair torn cables.

Newer units have the extra perk of being significantly quieter and sometimes contain back up battery functionality. Call us today if you would like to have a new garage door opener installed.

New Garage Doors

After you have done repeated repairs or maintenance on your garage door, if it still is not working properly, then it might be time to think about replacing the garage door completely. Newer doors have a full range of benefits, not limited to improving the curb appeal of your house and increasing home values and adding improved security and safeguards. New garage doors have the most current safety and security standards to protect your home and all it contains. Newer doors also offer better insulation and might help regulate the temperature of your home as well as make the garage space more climate controlled.
