đź›  Common Problems & Fixes

What should I do if my garage door is stuck halfway?
First, don’t force it. Check the tracks for obstructions and try unplugging the opener to reset it. If it’s still stuck, it may be a spring or sensor issue—give us a call.
Why won’t my garage door close all the way?
Usually it’s dirty or misaligned safety sensors. Try cleaning the lenses and checking alignment. Still stuck? We service this issue daily in Raleigh, Durham, and surrounding ZIP codes.
Why does my garage door open back up after hitting the ground?
The opener’s travel limit might need adjusting. It thinks there’s an obstacle—this is a common issue we fix throughout Wake County.
Why won’t my garage door remote work anymore?
Try replacing the battery, reprogramming the remote, and checking for nearby interference. If that fails, our technicians can inspect the receiver and wiring.
Why is my garage door making loud noises?
It might need lubrication, or the rollers and hinges could be worn out. Our $49.99 tune-up service—available across the Triangle—can quiet things down fast.
Why does my garage door open randomly?
It may be caused by remote interference, a faulty logic board, or a stuck wall button. These are issues we can diagnose quickly.
What causes garage door springs to break?
Time and tension. Most last 7–10 years. We replace springs daily across Raleigh, Apex, Cary, and Holly Springs using high-cycle options for longer life.
Should I repair or replace my old garage door?
If your door is over 15 years old, uninsulated, or has multiple issues, a new door can offer better performance, safety, and efficiency.
What’s the difference between torsion and extension springs?
Torsion springs are mounted above the door and last longer. Extension springs run along the sides. We recommend torsion springs for safety and durability.
What type of garage door is best for North Carolina weather?
Insulated steel doors help regulate your garage’s temperature during hot NC summers and cold winters—great for energy savings.

đź”§ Garage Door How-To Guides

How do I test if my garage door sensors are working?
Look for solid green or amber lights. Clean the lenses gently and make sure the sensors are aligned facing each other. If the lights aren’t steady, alignment is likely the issue.
How should I lubricate my garage door?
Use a silicone-based spray—never WD-40. Apply it to the rollers, hinges, springs, and tracks. For best performance, lubricate your door every 6 months.
