A garage door is an item you shouldn't have to worry about very much. When you arrive at your home, you should be able to press the remote button and the door ought to open and then close without any problems. Yet, sadly, bad things occur, and it doesn't always work as you would like.

There are a multitude of things which could go wrong with your garage door at any moment. It could get stuck open, causing a serious security issue.

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

If you by accident reversed your car into your door when attempting to back out of the garage and damaged 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 bump into the garage door.
