A garage door will make some sound when it opens and closes, but that sound should be minimal. Most of the noise comes from the garage door motor mounted on the wall or the ceiling. However, if the door itself is making a lot of noise, it could be due to rollers that need to be lubricated or springs that are coming loose. Squeaking, popping, and rattling should never be sounds you hear from your garage door, and if you do, it’s best to call a professional right away. A garage door should open and close at a steady pace, but if your door seems to be opening and closing very slowly, this could be due to dirty roller tracks or dry rollers. If your door seems to “crawl” when you open or close it, it could be time to lubricate the rollers or clean out the tracks. Your garage door motor should run long enough to open or close the door, but if it keeps running after the door is completely open or closed, it could be due to incorrect travel limit settings. The travel limits tell the motor when to stop running, so if your motor continues to run, the limits might need to be reset. It’s always frustrating when your garage door remote opener doesn’t work. This means you have to get out of the car to open the door with the keypad or manually. Changing the remote batteries can often fix this problem, but if it doesn’t, there could be an issue with the sensor on the opener. The remote might need to be cleaned, along with the receiver on the motor housing.
