A dull thud from the garage, and the door is right where it fell. The spring does the lifting, so without it working, the door has no way to rise on its own.
Our techs weigh the door to determine exact spring size and wire diameter for Longmont’s specific housing styles, perfectly adjusting coil tension.
You hit the button and the opener starts, but the door just sits there. It could be a worn drive gear, a failed board, or a photo eye that shifted out of position.
Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. Pull it only when the door is fully closed.
Your door is riding lower on one side, or the whole panel has shifted sideways in the opening. Call us for garage door repair Longmont CO rather than pushing it back yourself.
Keep people and vehicles clear until a technician secures it. Cable realignment isn't something a homeowner can do safely.

You will not be charged extra for a repair when the service has already been estimated.
For garage door repair Longmont CO, we start by having our tech take a look at your door and list out the repairs needed. No tool comes out until you approve the work.
Torsion and extension springs take the full weight of the door, and when one snaps, the whole system stops. We stock springs in the sizes Longmont homes actually use, so most spring jobs wrap in a single visit.
Whether the motor's grinding, the logic board's gone, or the photo eye is out of alignment, our techs diagnose and fix the real problem rather than guessing.

Frayed or snapped cables put the door out of balance and load stress onto hardware not built for it. Our techs handle the tension and swap with the right tools.
Damaged panels cause misaligned doors that fail to seal properly. We replace damaged panels with a close match and fit new bottom seals, so the door closes flush and keeps weather out.
Broken springs are the problem we meet most on garage door spring repair Longmont calls, and the one people most often try to fix themselves before calling for garage door repair Longmont CO.
Once a spring is broken, do not run the opener. Leave the door where it is and call a technician. Both springs on a two-spring door are of the same age and wear cycle.
The symptoms vary: the motor runs but the door does not move, the door reverses for no reason, or the wall button works while the remote does not.

On garage door repair Longmont CO calls we see cables fray before they snap and tracks bend before a door comes fully off.
These are things that can be fixed before they get worse and often start with “it’s making a noise”. A door that comes off track can weigh 200 pounds or more, and it can drop without warning. If a track has been bent or a cable has jumped the drum of the door, stop using the door immediately. A technician can realign the track, reseat the cable and check the spring tension, and the dispatcher gives you a two hour arrival window when you call.
Even with a single cracked panel it doesn’t necessarily mean the whole door needs to be replaced.
We inspect the entire door and only replace the damaged parts. The panel work involved with garage door repair Longmont CO also covers the bottom seals and weatherstripping.

The same goes for the drive gear and wiring inside the opener. That rule covers more than springs. If the issue is inside the opener housing or involves the main cable drum, call us.

URGENT
We take garage door opener repair Longmont calls and garage door spring repair Longmont emergencies around the clock, including doors frozen shut in cold weather.
Longmont is 4,980ft up in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. Because of the elevation, steel gets to flex a lot with big temp swings.
A low of 0 degrees F on a winter morning could be followed by a 60 degree afternoon. Then when the sun goes down again, it could drop back down to 0 degrees F. On the coldest morning of the year, a spring or cable near the end of its life can fail, and we see it every winter.
Most Longmont homes went up between the 1960s and the 1990s. At the time of construction, many of these homes were equipped with torsion spring assemblies, cable drums and door openers.Read more
