Frequently Asked Questions About Garage Door Service & Repair
Why won't my garage door open or close?
If the door won’t close: The most common culprit is misaligned or obstructed photo-eye safety sensors. Advise homeowners to check for items in the door’s path and ensure the sensors near the floor are clean and aligned (indicated by a steady light).
If the door won’t open: Suggest checking the power supply, remote batteries, or if the door was manually locked. Crucially, mention that if the door feels very heavy, it likely indicates a broken spring, which requires professional service.
How much does garage door repair cost?
The average cost for professional garage door repair in Alamo, CA typically ranges from $99 to $299. Minor fixes, like sensor alignment or tune-ups, may cost less. Major repairs, such as torsion spring replacement, usually cost between $299 and $429, while new opener installations range from $500 to $800. We provide a free, detailed estimate after inspecting your door.
What should I do if my garage door spring is broken? (And can I fix it myself?)
If you have a broken garage door spring, stop using the door immediately and do not attempt a DIY repair. Torsion and extension springs are under extreme tension and can cause severe injury if mishandled. Disconnect the opener and call a certified technician. Professional replacement is necessary to ensure the door is safely balanced and operational.
Why isn't my garage door opener or remote working?
Check Batteries: Replace batteries in the remote and keypad.
Power Source: Ensure the opener motor is plugged in and check the circuit breaker.
Reprogramming: If the wall button works but the remote doesn’t, the remote may need reprogramming.
Motor/Board Failure: If the opener is unresponsive, the internal gears or circuit board may require professional service.
Why is my garage door so noisy?
A noisy garage door is typically caused by worn-out rollers, loose hardware, or a lack of lubrication on the hinges, springs, and tracks. You can temporarily quiet the door using a silicone-based or white lithium garage door lubricant (avoid standard WD-40, which attracts dirt). Persistent noise often indicates worn components or an unbalanced door that requires a professional tune-up.
