A garage door is a thing you do not want to need to think about very much. When you arrive at your home, you need to be able to press the remote button and the door should open and close without any problems. Yet, sadly, bad things happen, and it may not always work as you hope.

There are dozens of things which could go wrong with your garage door at any moment. It could get stuck open, causing a serious security issue. It could get stuck shut, making it to where you must leave your car or products needing storing outside, vulnerable to burglars, or inclement weather. Worse yet, it could get stuck closed with your auto inside, and you may not be able to get to your job or an important place. A door that becomes stuck halfway is also a safety and security problem.

If you accidentally reversed your car into your garage door when trying to drive out of the garage and harmed the door in the process, try to stay clear headed. Many people have done this, accidentally pushing down on the accelerator instead of the brake. In areas with icy winters, it's not uncommon for people to slide on a frozen driveway and crash into the garage door.
