A spring let go and the door is stuck halfway. Call (781) 661-6378 any hour for garage door repair Woburn MA: a real person picks up, and the truck that comes out carries the parts for most jobs.
We’ll get back to you shortly.
Every garage door repair Woburn MA call goes out on a truck stocked with the common parts, and you get a text when it is on the way. Here is what our techs take care of:
Torsion and extension springs break without warning, and the door should not be used until the spring is replaced. The written quote comes before any work does.
We carry parts for the common openers, drive gears included, and when an opener is past repair we install a new one.
Two of the most common reasons a door goes off track are frayed cables and bent tracks. We replace cables and straighten or swap out track before the problem spreads.
Even one harsh winter can cause a steel panel to crack or a wood panel to buckle. We order replacement panels to match your door as closely as the maker’s line allows.
A torn or stiff bottom seal can let cold Woburn air and road salt enter the garage. Our trucks carry the standard seal widths, and we order anything else.
When a door is worn out, we handle the whole garage door installation Woburn MA job: the new door, hooking up the opener and a full safety check.
Broken springs are the number one reason we roll a truck for garage door repair Woburn MA. The spring does most of the work in lifting a door and without it the door can easily fall due to its own weight. When it goes, the door can drop hard and fast.
Once a spring is broken, do not run the opener. Leave the door where it is and call a technician.
Torsion springs are located on the shaft above the door and extension springs run along the horizontal tracks on either side of the door. We size extension springs to the door’s weight and height, because a wrong-sized spring either fails fast or strains the opener from day one.
On most broken garage spring repair Woburn MA calls we fit the right spring and test the balance before we leave.
Stop using the door and call us.
The symptoms of opener problems are varied: the motor runs but nothing happens, the remote only works from right in front of the garage, or the door reverses at the last second. These problems generally point to one of four parts: the drive gear, the logic board, the photo eye, or the limit switches.
We run garage door opener repair Woburn MA calls every week, and our trucks carry drive gears, logic boards and sensors for LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie and other brands.
When an opener is too old to fix, we can put in a new one.
The cables run from the bottom corners of the door up to the drums on the spring shaft. When one breaks or unwinds, that side of the door drops, and that is often how people find out the door has come off track.
A door that comes off track can weigh 200 pounds or more, and it can drop without warning. Keep people and vehicles clear until a technician secures it.
Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. Pull it only when the door is fully closed.
Most bent tracks come from a bumper, a bike or a trash bin knocking into them. We straighten or replace that section of track and check the rollers and cable drums while we are there.
A cracked panel looks bad, lets water in, ruins the insulation and weakens the door. On a garage door repair Woburn MA call we usually replace just the damaged panel, not the whole door, unless the frame is badly bent too.
Spring and cable work belongs to a trained technician, never a homeowner. The same goes for the drive gear and wiring inside the opener.
