Common Garage Door Opener Problems
Are you having issues with your garage door opener? Does it not open fully? Is it not responding to the remote? Or is there another problem that makes it hard for you to use your garage door? Usually, these issues are easy to spot and can be fixed without too much trouble.
Some problems you can solve yourself, while others may need a professional. Be careful not to experiment too much with your garage door opener, as a small mistake can lead to big issues you won’t want to deal with. Only attempt repairs if you are sure of what you are doing.
Here are some common issues you might have with garage door openers:
1. Opener not operating with remote control or wall switch
If the garage door does not move when you press the remote control or wall switch, it might be an issue with the power supply. First, check if the door opener is plugged into the outlet. Then, ensure that the fuse, GFCI outlet, or circuit breaker has not tripped. It’s also possible that the garage door opener’s motor is broken and not working.
Our service representative can help with all these problems easily. We specialize in handling electrical issues, fixing short circuits, and replacing motors if needed.
2. Garage door doesn’t open with wireless keypad or remote control
Your garage door might not respond to the remote or keypad for several reasons. First, check the antenna range; you might be too far away. Try moving closer to the garage door.
If the door opens with the wall switch but not the remote, there could be an issue with the remote itself. You might need to change the batteries in your remote or keypad.
If none of these fixes work, contact a professional to reprogram the remote and check for other problems.
3. The garage door reverses as soon as it touches the floor
If the garage door jumps up right after hitting the ground, there is an issue with the close limit switch. This adjustment screw can cause the door to reverse before it reaches the ground or not close fully.
Our technician will adjust the close-limit screw on the door opener motor to make sure the door works properly. This should be checked carefully during garage door installation to prevent future issues.
