How to Fix a Garage Door

Garage doors can stop working for many reasons...

Step 1

Check the power supply... Sometimes, the most common issues are just an unplugged opener or a tripped circuit breaker.

Step 2

Inspect the springs... If you notice any gaps in your torsion springs, DO NOT attempt to fix them yourself. Springs are under immense pressure and are extremely dangerous.


⚠️ Warning: Always consult a professional for broken springs.
