For emergency repairs, call us in the event that your door is completey broken. The problem could be small. It could be due to misalignment on the tracks on the horizontal side or brackets that are loose, or bolts that are not tightened. You can check that the bolts and brackets are secured if the rollers remain in the tracks. It is also possible to ensure that the tracks are aligned correctly and that all tracks are parallel.

After closing, the Door Closes A Little But Then Opens Up Again

In most cases, when the door closes in a small amount, and then comes back up, it's because the sensors aren't aligned properly or the sensitivity on the remote opener isn't set to a sufficient level. Increase the sensitivity on your remote, and check whether that solves the issue. Make sure that the sensors can be communicated properly in the event that they don't. The sensors communicate with the invisible beam. Every interruption is considered to be an indication that someone or something hinders the door from closing. Verify that the sensors are aligned on the panel that controls it. An indicator light should stop blinking and appear on the control panel.

Sometimes, the Door opens, but not always.

The problem could be caused by the batteries inside your remote opener. Replacing them should resolve the issue. Even though, in remotes that have been made before 1993, it is possible that your neighbor has a device that uses the same frequency of wave and the same transmission code. If this is the case, you should change your transmission code. This is to ensure that the door is able to open and close correctly.
