Common Causes

Common Reasons a Garage Door Stops Working

“Broken” can mean several different things — knowing the likely cause helps us bring the right parts on the first visit.

1

Broken Torsion or Extension Spring

The most frequent cause of a door that won’t move at all; the opener isn’t strong enough to lift the door’s full weight without spring assistance.

2

Snapped or Frayed Cable

Often paired with a spring failure, a broken cable can let one side of the door drop suddenly, which is also a real safety hazard.

3

Off-Track Rollers

An impact, a bent track, or worn rollers can pop the door off its track, causing it to jam partway or bind at an angle.

4

Opener or Sensor Failure

Worn gears, a dead capacitor, or a misaligned safety sensor can stop the door from responding even when the door itself is fine.

FAQ

Broken Garage Door Repair — Questions

Why will my garage door not open?

The most common cause is a broken spring, especially if you heard a loud bang. Other causes include a dead opener, tripped disconnect cord, or blocked safety sensors.

My door will not close — what is wrong?

Usually misaligned or blocked safety sensors. Check that both sensor lights are lit and aligned; it can also be a cable or limit issue.

How fast can you get here?

Same-day across Durham with 24/7 emergency response — a technician typically arrives within 1–2 hours.

Can you fix it in one visit?

Usually yes. Our vans carry common parts — springs, cables, rollers and opener components — for single-visit repairs.
