Likely Broken Spring

Garage Door Spring Repair Winston-Salem NC

The coil above your door let go while the car was still inside. That spring is what does the lifting, and without it, the door will not rise.

Our techs weigh the door to determine exact spring size and wire diameter for Winston-Salem’s specific housing styles, perfectly adjusting coil tension. 

Opener / Motor Issue

Garage Door Opener Repair Winston-Salem

Your remote works fine but the door never moves, or the unit strains partway and gives up. Stripped gears, a burnt logic board, or sensors out of alignment are usually why.

Safety Warning:

Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. Pull it only when the door is fully closed.

Immediate Safety Hazard

Cables and Tracks

One side of your door has sagged and the whole panel is sitting crooked in the opening. Do not try to straighten it yourself.

Do Not Operate:

Keep people and vehicles clear until a technician secures it. Cable realignment isn't something a homeowner can do safely.

Once a spring is broken, do not run the opener. Leave the door where it is and call a technician. From the heavy steel doors on Ardmore’s older homes to the lighter carriage-style doors on newer homes off Robinhood Road, we carry torsion and extension springs in a range of sizes. For two-spring doors, it is common practice to replace both springs, as they have likely accumulated the same number of hours of use and are likely to be worn out at the same time.

We service problems with openers that won’t move, reverse during the close cycle, or do not respond when the wall button is pressed.

Our technicians work on LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie and Craftsman models, replacing drive gears, logic boards, photo eyes and wiring on garage door opener repair Winston-Salem jobs. Spring and cable work belongs to a trained technician, never a homeowner. The same goes for the drive gear and wiring inside the opener.

Fraying cable or a cable that has come off the drum can indicate that the door is about to have a much worse day.

Off-track doors make up a large share of our garage door repair Winston-Salem NC calls. Many tracks installed thirty to forty years ago need work now. A door that comes off track can weigh 200 pounds or more, and it can drop without warning. Once the door is secured, we rehang the cables, straighten or replace the bent track section, and check the rollers and brackets before running the door again.

A dented panel looks terrible but can also throw a door out of track causing excessive stress on garage door openers and wear on garage door rollers.

Our garage door panel replacement service for Winston-Salem residents covers steel, aluminum and wood composite garage doors and we match the new panel to the original door design where the panel is still available.

On a door with two springs, the second spring is the same age and has the same number of cycles as the one that broke. It is normal practice to replace both springs at the same time to avoid having to return to the property within a short time to replace the second spring. In addition, the door will be properly balanced with two fresh springs.

The process is the same any day of the week: a tech looks at the door, writes out the full price, and you approve it before work starts. Nights and weekends work the same way.

Garage attic heat can be particularly hard on opener logic boards, and on garage door opener lubrication. Damp air is also notoriously hard on garage door spring coils, and on garage door wall button contacts. Typically the first part to fail on garage door openers is the drive gear. Garage door repair Winston-Salem NC service calls in the summer months often uncover heat and moisture damage, in addition to the reason for the service call.

There are a few possible reasons for this. A wall button could be stuck in the pressed position or shorted. An old fixed-code remote can on occasion pick up another system (in a neighboring house) transmitting on the same frequency. A control board which is starting to fail can send random commands. Our trained techs can identify the problem on a garage door repair Winston-Salem NC visit and then fix it for you.
