A garage door is an item you should not have to think about often. When you arrive at your residence, you want to be able to press the remote button and the door ought to open or close without any issues. Yet, sadly, bad things happen, and it does not always work as you would like.

There are many different things which might fail with your garage door at any moment. It could get stuck open, causing a serious security issue. It could get stuck closed, requiring you to leave your car or items needing storage outside, susceptible to burglars, or inclement weather.

If you unintentionally reversed your car into your garage door when attempting to leave the garage and hurt the panels in the process, try to relax.

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