  1. Some Important Reasons Your Garage Door Won’t Work As garage door service professionals, we’ve pretty much dealt with every issue you can think of when it comes to repairing residential and commercial garage doors.

  2. It may sound cliché, but people still forget or fail to realize that the transmitter requires power to work. And this can sometimes include the transmitter on the wall in your garage too. • You should also realize that if the battery goes in one place, it may have run out in others at the same time because you probably installed them on the same day.

  3. Your Photo Eye is out of Alignment On either side of your garage door are photo eyes. Between the two eyes is an invisible beam that when broken, prevents the door from closing.  If your door won’t close, check to make sure these photo eyes are not misaligned or dirty. If they are, here’s a guide for cleaning and inspecting a garage door photo eye.

  4. Track is out of Alignment • If you’re garage door track is out of alignment, it can be a serious issue.  The metal track that your door runs on needs to be aligned properly for the door to move. If you see gaps between the rollers and rail or bends in the rails themselves you have a problem. 

  5. Garage Door Opens/Closes Randomly • If you discover your door opening or closing at random times, even when you are not home, it can be a little disturbing. • The first thing to check is your transmitters. Make sure they are not stuck under something that can inadvertently depress the control mechanism.

  6. Automatic Garage Door Opener Runs but Door Doesn’t Move • Every garage door opener comes with a disconnect switch in case the power fails to allow you to open or close the door manually. • This switch is usually attached to a rope or knob that can be accidentally unhooked. Close or open the door all the way and then reattached this hook secure. Then try opening or closing the door again with your transmitter.

  7. Door Goes Down All the Way, Then Opens Again • If this happens, the most likely culprit are the open and close limit settings of your garage door opener. This range tells the garage door opener how far the door should move before it is fully closed. • If your settings are too high, the door will hit the ground before the opener thinks it should and assume the door is hitting something in its path. It will then automatically reverse to prevent crushing it.
