Troubleshooting

Check what is safe. Leave what is not.

A blocked sensor or weak remote battery may be simple. A heavy, tilted or off-track door is a reason to stop—not try harder.

Door won't close all the way

Check that the two safety sensors near the floor are clean and their lights are on. A bag or leaf in the way is enough to stop the door.

Remote doesn't work but wall button does

Replace the remote battery first. Also check the 'lock' button on the wall control isn't switched on.

Door is very heavy to lift by hand

This usually means a broken or worn spring. Stop using the door and call us — don't try to fix springs yourself.

Door is noisy

Lubricate hinges and rollers with garage door lubricant (not grease). If it's still loud, worn rollers may need replacing.

Power is out

Follow the manufacturer’s manual-release instructions only when the door is closed, balanced and the springs are intact. Never release an open or damaged door; call if you are unsure.

Stop at the first sign of a mechanical hazard.

A gap in a spring, frayed cable, tilted panel or door out of its track calls for professional attention. Keep people and vehicles away. Never loosen bottom brackets or spring hardware, and do not increase opener force to overcome resistance.
