There are a multitude of things which might stop working with your garage door at any minute. It could get stuck open, causing a serious security issue. It could get stuck closed, making it to where you must leave your automobile or products needing storing outdoors, susceptible to thieves, or inclement weather.

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

In areas with icy winters, it's not uncommon for people to slide on a frozen driveway and crash into the garage door.
