A garage door is an item you do not want to have to think about very much. When you arrive at your house, you want to be able to tap the remote button and the door ought to open and shut without any problems. Yet, regrettably, bad things happen, and it does not always work as you expect.

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