Our garage doors are what allow us to easily access our garages. Without them, it would be extremely difficult to impossible to be able to get large things, like your car, into your garage. It also helps to keep your valuables inside protected, but only when it is closed. Unfortunately, sometimes they will not close. Here are some common causes that are preventing your door from closing.

• Obstructions in Tracks: Dirt, debris, snow, and ice can all get stuck in your garage door tracks. This will block the wheels and prevent the door from closing. Clean your tracks regularly to make sure this is not the issue.

• Misaligned, Blocked, or Defective Safety Sensors: Safety sensors are in place to prevent your garage door from closing on someone or something. There are two sensors that send an invisible beam between them. If that beam is interrupted in any way, your garage door won’t close. Sometimes they become misaligned because they are bumped or they can become blocked by debris.

• Remote Batteries Dead: Pressing your remote to open or close your garage door with no results? Then your batteries may simply be dead or have become disconnected from the garage door opener.

• Damaged Cables: Cables are used to evenly lift and close your garage door. If the cables are damaged, they may not move as evenly as they are supposed to.
