Garage Door Problems

A garage door is an item you shouldn't have to worry about often. When you arrive at your home, you want to be able to press the remote button and the door should open and close without any problems. Yet, sadly, frustrating things happen, and it doesn't always function as you would like.

There are dozens of things which may go wrong with your garage door at any time. It could get stuck open, triggering a severe security danger. It could get stuck closed, requiring you to leave your car or items needing storage outdoors, open to thieves, or bad weather. Worse yet, it could get stuck closed with your automobile inside, and you may not be able to get to your job or an important appointment. A door that becomes stuck halfway is also a safety and security issue.

If you unintentionally reversed your automobile into your garage door when attempting to drive out of the garage and damaged the panels in the process, try to relax. Many people have done this, unintentionally pressing the accelerator instead of the brake pedal. In areas with icy winters, it's not uncommon for people to slide on a frozen driveway and bump into the garage door.

If you have damage or something else wrong with your garage door, you will need to address the situation soon. Garage door dents not only hurt your home's appearance, it can trigger a possible safety and security threat and also leave your garage door prone to additional damage.
