Garage Door Safety Tips

Opening and closing the garage door is such a routine work for us that we don’t even think that it would stop working for any reason. However, there can be a number of reasons because of which a garage door stops working. The problems can be most obvious and simple, but we sometimes don’t take our thoughts to them.

  • Remote and wall switch has stopped working

When the garage door does not function even after pressing the remote and the wall switch, it is probably because the power source is not present. The common reason is that the motor unit is not plugged properly. As soon as the cable is plugged, the door will start working.

  • Garage door reverses before closing completely

In such a case, there can be a problem with a close force setting. When the settings are not correct, the door would not be able to close. It can also be due to damaged or rusted rollers. The rusted rollers create friction, which fools the door and makes it believe that the door has reached the floor before it touches it.

  • Garage door does not open completely

This problem can be due to the displacement of the up-limit switch. If the switch is away from the motor, it might malfunction, and the motor would close the door before it is fully open. Again this problem can also result because of damaged rollers.

There can be several reasons because of which the garage door stops working. Even though the problem may seem simple but it is important to contact a specialist so he may fix the problem completely.
