What Should You Do If Your Garage Door Constantly Stops?

Automatic garage doors, like so many other contemporary conveniences, are a boon to our daily lives. They pamper us not only in terms of saving time but also in terms of conserving energy. When it comes to electronic garage doors, for example, you don't have to get out of the car, bend, and raise the door up, then do the reverse to close it. Automatic garage door openers make all of this possible with a simple touch of a button. Dependence, on the other hand, maybe quite painful at times. What happens if the chain breaks or the remote stops working? What if you're stuck with a garage door that won't open or that keeps halting when you try to close it? 


So, what should you do if your garage door would not close when you try to close it? Take on the role of Sherlock Holmes and begin your investigation.

Check for obstruction objects

A blockage might be the main culprit. Sensors are used by automatic garage doors to detect the presence of something beneath them. Investigate to see whether anything is blocking the path, since if there is, your garage door will not close. Even a little object, such as a twig, might trigger the alert. So sweep the space clean and make sure there's nothing there to bother you.

Make sure the track is not blocked

Make sure the track isn't blocked or jammed. The garage door requires a perfectly clean track to open and close properly, and even the tiniest obstruction might cause the door to stop operating. Use a flashlight to make sure nothing is in the path.

Do you have a broken tension spring?

Another reason your garage door keeps stopping is a damaged or strained tension spring. If this is the case, you should contact garage door repair professionals since attempting to do it yourself might endanger you or permanently damage the door.

Check if the sensors are okay

If there are no obstructions, the next subject for the examination should be sensors. Photo-eye sensors in automatic garage doors guarantee that the doors do not close on someone or something, inflicting significant harm. These sensors can become misaligned, causing the door mechanism to malfunction. Both sensors should have lights on them, which should blink or be illuminated. To get the door up and running again, readjust the sensors if one or both lights are off.


If you have tried all the troubleshooting methods and your garage door still keeps on stopping, it’s time to call professional help.
