What counts as a garage door emergency

If any of these describe your door, do not wait for a regular appointment.

Door stuck open

Your garage and home are exposed and the door will not close.

Car trapped inside

A broken spring or cable has left the door too heavy or unsafe to lift.

Door will not close before a storm

A door that cannot seal leaves your garage open to wind, rain and snow.

Immediate safety or security risk

A door falling unevenly, hanging off the track or failing to reverse needs attention now.

While you wait for the technician

  • Stop using the door

    Do not keep pressing the button or forcing the door. It can damage the opener and the door.

  • Keep people and pets clear

    A damaged door can drop suddenly. Stay out from under it and the tracks.

  • Leave springs and cables alone

    They hold stored energy that can cause serious injury. This is work for a trained technician.

  • Note what happened

    A loud bang, a hanging cable or a crooked door helps the dispatcher prepare the right parts.

Emergency garage door questions

What counts as a garage door emergency?

A door stuck open exposing your home, a broken spring or cable with the car trapped inside, a door that will not close before severe weather, or any situation creating an immediate security or safety risk.

When can I reach a dispatcher?

Our main line connects to a live dispatcher during extended hours, including evenings and weekends. Call and we will confirm availability for your area.

How are evening and weekend calls handled?

Evening and weekend calls come through the same main line. A dispatcher confirms the details and routes a technician, and you receive a written quote before any work begins.

Can I open the door manually if the spring is broken?

Technically yes, using the red emergency release cord, but a door with a broken spring can be very heavy. Do not operate it repeatedly. Leave it where it is and call for service.

My spring broke with a loud bang. What should I do?

Stop using the door and disconnect the opener if you can do so safely. Do not touch the spring or cables. Call us and a technician will replace the spring and check the related hardware.

What counts as a garage door emergency

A door stuck open and exposing your home, a broken spring or cable with a vehicle trapped inside, a door that will not close before severe weather, or any immediate safety or security risk is an emergency.

If you are unsure, call and describe what you see. The dispatcher will help you decide how urgent it is.

Common emergency garage door problems

The most common urgent calls are broken springs, snapped cables, doors off track, and openers that fail with the door open. Failed sensors can also stop a door from closing.

Most of these can be resolved on one visit because our trucks carry springs, cables, rollers and opener parts.
