Common Garage Door Problems
Due to their frequent use, garage doors can experience a range of problems that require repair, from minor issues that can be fixed with basic maintenance to major malfunctions that require custom parts to be ordered.
Springs play a crucial role in garage door operation and can wear out over time, resulting in broken springs that can cause a garage door to malfunction or become unusable.
Panels on garage doors can become damaged by exposure to the elements or impacts, compromising the door’s security, insulation, and aesthetic appeal.
Garage door openers can malfunction due to electrical problems, worn gears, or faulty circuitry, resulting in the door failing to open, close, or operate correctly.
When the rollers/tracks of a garage door become damaged or misaligned, the door can become off-track, making it difficult to operate and causing long-term damage to the door.
Garage door cables, which support the weight of the door, can snap due to wear and tear, creating a safety hazard and causing the door to become unbalanced and malfunction.
Signs Your Garage Door Needs Repair & Maintenance
A garage door that opens or closes slowly may indicate that the springs or opener require maintenance or repair.
Grinding, scraping, or squeaking sounds coming from a garage door may indicate that the door or its components require maintenance or repair.
A garage door that appears to be sagging or uneven may indicate a broken spring or a misaligned track.
If your garage door is responding slowly to its remote control, it’s possible that the opener or its components are not functioning properly and require maintenance or repair.
Addressing visible damage such as dents, cracks, or other issues with the door or its components immediately can prevent more serious problems from occurring over time.

DIY Troubleshooting Tips
Whether you use your garage for storage, parking or as a workshop, a reliable garage door is essential. Unfortunately, constant use can lead to various problems with your garage door. Luckily, many issues can be resolved quickly with some simple troubleshooting. Here are some tips to help you get started.
Check The Batteries In Your Remote
If your garage door remote fails to open or close your door, the first thing to check is the batteries. Often, replacing the batteries with new ones can be a simple and effective fix.
Inspect The Tracks
To keep your garage door functioning smoothly, it’s important to regularly inspect the tracks. Check for debris or damage, then clear any obstructions before wiping down the tracks with a clean cloth.
Test The Photo-Eye Sensors
Photo-eye sensors are an important safety feature of garage doors. If your door won’t close all the way, it could be due to malfunctioning sensors. Check that they are clean, aligned correctly, and functioning properly.
Lubricate Moving Parts
To keep your garage door running smoothly, it’s important to lubricate the moving parts regularly. Over time, these parts can become dry and squeaky, so apply a silicone-based lubricant to ensure proper operation.
Safety Tips For DIY Garage Door Repairs
- Disconnect the power: Safety should always come first when repairing a garage door. Before beginning any repairs, be sure to disconnect the power to the garage door opener to prevent any accidents.
- Wear protective gear: Safety should always be a top priority when working on a garage door. Be sure to wear appropriate protective gear, such as gloves and safety glasses, to protect yourself from any potential injuries.
- Avoid making adjustments to the torsion spring: The torsion spring of a garage door is under a lot of tension and should never be adjusted unless you are a trained professional. Attempting to adjust the torsion spring can result in serious injury, so it’s best to avoid it.
- Know your limits: It’s essential to know your limits when it comes to garage door repairs. If you’re unsure about any aspect of the repair, it’s best to call in the experts at Garage Doors Plus Northern Beaches to fix the issue.
