Yet, unfortunately, frustrating things happen, and it doesn't always work as you hope.

There are a multitude of things which might stop working with your garage door at any time. It could get stuck open, causing a security problem.

Worse yet, it could get stuck shut with your auto inside, and you may not be able to get to your job or an important place. A door that becomes stuck half open is also a safety and security issue.

If you by accident backed your automobile into your door when attempting to leave the garage and hurt the panels in the process, try to relax. Many people have done this, mistakenly pressing the gas instead of the brake. In areas with icy winters, it's common for people to slide on an ice covered driveway and smash into the garage door.
