Do not keep running the opener if the door is stuck. It can damage the motor.
Common questions
Why is my door so loud?
Worn rollers, loose hardware or a dry track are common causes. Lubrication and new rollers often help. Nylon rollers are usually quieter than steel ones and a common upgrade during a repair visit.
Can I use my garage door if a cable is frayed?
It is best not to. A frayed cable can snap and let the door fall or hang crooked. Leave it closed and call for repair.
