A broken garage door can bring your day to a grinding halt — especially if your car is trapped inside or your home is exposed. Here’s how to handle garage door emergencies the smart, safe way.
Common Emergency Scenarios
Door Won’t Open and You’re Late
Caused by:
- Broken spring or cable
- Dead opener or keypad
- Sensor alignment issues
Door Stuck Halfway
This creates both a security risk and physical hazard — especially during high winds or extreme temperatures.
Garage Door Off Its Tracks
Don’t try to force it! This can warp the door and burn out the motor.
What To Do Immediately
- Stay Safe
Don’t try to lift a stuck door — especially if you hear grinding or snapping sounds. - Unplug the Opener
Prevent further damage by cutting power to the unit. - Check for Obvious Obstructions
Sometimes it’s just a broom or trash can in the way of the sensors. - Call a 24/7 Repair Technician
