FAQs
Here we have answered some of the most frequently asked questions about garage door servicing
to help make sure you have the information you need.
Why is maintenance necessary for my automatic garage door?
Automatic garage doors are complex machines with both mechanical and electrical components that experience wear over time. Regular maintenance and safety checks are essential to keep them operating smoothly and safely. These checks should be performed by a qualified, experienced professional.
A typical service includes:
- Inspect and adjust all safety systems as needed
- Apply appropriate lubrication to all moving parts
- Ensure cables, springs, and rollers are aligned, tensioned, and positioned correctly
- Verify manual overrides and battery backups are functioning properly
- Test the range of the remote controls
- Check for any faults or warranty-related issues
- Educate the customer on how to override and reset the door in case of a power failure
My remote-controlled garage door isn’t working; will a service resolve the issue?
It can be challenging to pinpoint the exact cause. When a garage door stops working, it’s usually due to a specific fault. Sometimes, it’s something simple, like the power being accidentally switched off or tripped. Other times, it may require an adjustment to the spring or settings—something typically addressed during a service. If basic checks don’t solve the issue, it could indicate a larger problem. In that case, please reach out to us or send us the details.
My automatic up-and-over door isn’t working. Can I try to fix it myself?
There are a few simple checks you can try to resolve the issue:
- Ensure the motor unit is powered on. You should see a light or hear a sound when pressing the remote or ‘up’ switch.
- Check for any obstructions inside the garage and confirm the track system is clear.
If the motor runs but doesn’t lift the door, the manual override cord may have been pulled, disengaging the operator. Refer to your operating instructions to reconnect it.
Remember, all automatic doors should have a manual override for opening and closing during power outages.
My door won’t open fully and keeps stopping - any troubleshooting tips?
This issue usually indicates that the spring or operator needs adjustment, which requires a specialist. However, as a short-term measure, you may be able to assist the door in opening by relieving some of the excess pressure. First, check for any obstructions.
