When Garage door won’t close or open in Denver: what to do

A stuck garage door is more than a nuisance – it can trap your car, leave your home or business unsecured, and create a safety risk. Here’s what to do right away:

What to check before you call

Stop forcing the door
Don’t keep pressing the opener or pulling on the door. Forcing it can bend tracks, damage the opener, or snap cables.

Make sure it has power
Check that the opener is plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. Try the wall button as well as the remote.

Look at the safety sensors
If the photo eyes near the floor are dirty, blocked, or misaligned, the door may refuse to close. Gently clean the lenses and make sure both lights are on.

Check the manual locks
Some doors have a manual lock on the handle. If it’s engaged, the opener will struggle and the door won’t move.

Safety first: avoid risky DIY fixes

• Don’t try to adjust or remove springs or cables yourself – they’re under high tension and can cause serious injury.

• Avoid pulling the red emergency release if the door is stuck open and a spring might be broken; the door can slam shut unexpectedly.

If these basic checks don’t solve it, it’s time to call a professional technician. We can usually get to you the same day anywhere in Denver.

Garage door problems are stressful enough – the pricing shouldn’t be. Denver Garage Door Ltd keeps things simple and transparent.

• Free estimates before work begins

• Clear breakdown of parts and labor

When to repair instead of replace

In many cases, a repair is all you need. We usually recommend repair when:

• The door is in generally good condition

• Issues are limited to springs, cables, hardware, or opener

• Damage is minor, like a single dented panel

We may suggest replacement when:

• The door is 15-20+ years old and having frequent issues

• Multiple panels or sections are badly damaged

• The system is unsafe or doesn’t meet current standards

• You want better insulation, security, or curb appeal

Our technicians explain both options so you can choose what fits your home, budget, and long-term plans.
