Signs Your Garage Door Opener Needs Repair vs. Replacement
With an average life span between 10 and 15 years, your garage door opener will eventually need to be replaced, but over the course of ownership, there may be one or more issues that arise that can be resolved with a repair. Here are some common signs that your garage door opener needs repair vs. replacement:
Garage Door Won’t Open or Close
If you press the button on your remote and nothing happens, there may be something blocking the track of the garage door and preventing it from moving – but the more likely culprit is the garage door opener remote control. Before calling Overhead Door Co. of Greater Cincinnati for garage door opener repair, try changing the batteries in the remote unit. If that doesn’t fix the issue, you will need to disengage the motor on the opener and manually open and close the door until the repairs are complete.
Garage Door Opener Works Intermittently
Inconsistent garage door operation may be a sign of a wiring issue, and prompt attention is needed to prevent further damage or possible injury.
Noisy Operation
While older model garage door openers are typically noisier than those manufactured today, the onset of any sudden or unusual noises, including grinding, screeching, or scraping, is a sign your garage door tracks may be obstructed or in need of lubrication, or you may need garage door opener repair or replacement.
Garage Door is Stuck
If your garage door is stuck partially open or closed, the garage door opener might be malfunctioning or in need of replacement. A garage door that becomes stuck can pose a risk to your safety and the security of the contents of your garage and should be inspected by a professional to determine the cause of the issue.
Garage Door Reverses Direction
Built-in safety sensors are designed to detect movement through the garage door opening during operation and reverse the direction of the door in order to prevent injury or entrapment. A door that reverses direction on its own, however, after either partially or fully opening or closing, may cause damage or injury to people or objects within close proximity. The issue may stem from an issue with the sensors, or faulty wiring or electrical components.
Our experienced garage door repair experts will quickly diagnose any issues you may be having and make recommendations for repair or replacement. In the event you need a new garage door opener, we help you find the ideal solution to suit your exact needs and budget.
