There are a multitude of things which might fail with your garage door at any time. It could get stuck open, triggering a severe security danger. It could get stuck shut, requiring you to leave your auto or items needing storing outdoors, open to burglars, or inclement weather.

In areas with icy winters, it's common for people to slide on a frozen driveway and smash into the garage door.
