A garage door is a thing you don't want to need to worry about very much. When you arrive at your home, you need to be able to press the remote button and the door ought to open or close without any issues. Yet, unfortunately, frustrating things occur, and it may not always work as you hope.

There are dozens of things which may fail with your garage door at any time. It could get stuck open, causing a serious security issue. It could get stuck shut, requiring you to leave your car or items needing storing outside, susceptible to burglars, or bad weather.

A door that becomes stuck midway is also a safety and security problem.

If you accidentally backed your car into your door when attempting to drive out of the garage and damaged the panels in the process, try to stay calm.

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