Torsion and extension springs carry the weight of the door. When one breaks, the door becomes extremely heavy and unsafe to operate by hand.

Lift cables transfer spring force to the door. A frayed or unseated cable pulls the door out of square and can leave it stuck partway.

Chain, belt, screw-drive and wall-mount openers — diagnosed properly, including the door itself, because most opener complaints start with the door.

Often worn rollers, dry bearings or loose hardware.
Opens unevenly
One side lagging usually points to cable or spring imbalance.
Closes unevenly
A crooked close can mean track, cable or bracket trouble.
Door feels unusually heavy
A classic sign the counterbalance is no longer doing its job.
Door will not stay open
Spring tension has likely dropped below what the door needs.
Cables look loose or frayed
Separated strands mean the cable has lost rated strength.
Rollers cracked or worn
Flat spots and cracked wheels make travel rough and noisy.
Hinges appear damaged
Cracks and elongated holes let sections shift out of line.
Door has come off the track
Stop using the door — this needs inspection before operation.
Opener runs, door does not move
Often a stripped gear, disengaged trolley or broken spring.
Door reverses unexpectedly
Force settings, sensors or an obstruction in the track.
Safety sensors not working
Alignment, wiring or a failed photo-eye pair.
Door shakes during operation
Binding hardware or misaligned track under load.
Gaps around the edges
Worn perimeter seal, bottom seal or a door out of square.
Springs stretched or separated
High-tension components — do not attempt to adjust these.
Remote or keypad not responding
Batteries, programming, or an opener receiver fault.
Door will not fully open or close
Travel limits, obstructions or a hardware problem.
Safety notice: garage door springs and cables are under significant tension. They should be inspected and repaired by a trained professional rather than adjusted at home.
