Fixing a Garage Door that is Stuck Open

Here are some ways that Automatic Garage Solutions can fix a garage door that is stuck open:

Check the tracks

The tracks on which the garage door runs can become misaligned or obstructed by debris, causing the door to become stuck open. Our technicians will inspect the tracks and clean them of any debris, or adjust them back into their proper alignment.

Replace the springs

Garage door springs are responsible for counterbalancing the weight of the door and allowing it to open and close smoothly. If the springs are worn out or broken, they may need to be replaced to restore proper functionality to the door.

Repair or replace the opener

A malfunctioning garage door opener can prevent the door from opening or closing properly. Our technicians can diagnose the issue and determine whether a repair or replacement of the opener is necessary.

Fix damaged panels

If the door panels are damaged or bent, they can prevent the door from closing all the way. Our technicians can assess the extent of the damage and either repair or replace the panels as needed.

By using a combination of expertise and the latest tools and techniques, our technicians are able to safely and effectively diagnose and repair a variety of garage door issues, including those that result in a stuck open door.
