Having garage doors can be extremely convenient, but the second they start to malfunction they can become a big inconvenient problem. Thankfully, our team at Techno Gate GTA is here to provide some insight into why garage doors malfunction and offer our repair GTA Garage Door Services if needed. If your garage door is no longer working properly, there are a few common explanations that you can look for. Some of these include the following.
The Path is Blocked
While modern technology provides many benefits, sometimes it can cause a headache or frustration to occur. If you have something in your garage like a toy or a lawnmower that is slightly in the closing path of your garage door, the garage door will not close. This can be fixed through a quick tidy-up to clear the path for your sensors. After this area is tidy, the garage should be up and running.
The Door is Manually Locked
If your remote feature is not working to open or close your garage doors, the doors may be in the manually locked position. When they are manually locked, the doors will not work through the remote. If this is happening, check to make sure your system is in an unlocked position and see if that helps. If not, you may need to check another item on this list.
The Battery May Have Died
Sometimes, obvious steps can be easily skipped over. If your garage door remote is not working, try replacing the batteries and see if that does the trick. Most times, remotes just need new batteries to get them operating as normal. Once you change the old batteries, your remote should be functioning well.
The Sensors Have Become Misaligned
While sensors are a great safety feature to have to ensure that the doors don’t close on someone or something, sometimes the sensors can become misaligned. In this case, a garage door expert is needed to take a further look at the problem and correct it.
The Tracks Have Become Damaged
The track along your garage door can easily become damaged causing the garage door not to work. This could be a result of a ball or puck hitting it, or if you are moving things around in the garage and accidentally hit it. In most cases, a professional expert will be needed in order to repair the tracks.
