There are a lot of things which may stop working with your garage door at any moment. It could get stuck open, causing a serious security issue. It could get stuck closed, making it to where you must leave your car or items needing storage outdoors, susceptible to burglars, or bad weather. Worse yet, it could get stuck shut with your automobile inside, and you may not be able to arrive at your job or an important appointment. A door that becomes stuck midway is also a safety and security issue.

If you unintentionally reversed your car into your garage door when attempting to drive out of the garage and hurt the panels in the process, try to stay calm.
