- You hear grinding, scraping, popping, or squeaking
- The door reverses unexpectedly or stops partway
- Cables look loose, frayed, or out of place

Garage door repair questions
Should I keep using a noisy garage door?
New grinding, popping, scraping, or shaking is a reason to stop and inspect the system. Continued use can worsen a damaged component or create a safety risk.
Why is my garage door crooked?
Uneven movement may involve a cable, spring, roller, track, or alignment problem. Avoid pulling or forcing the door back into place.
Is repair always better than replacement?
Not necessarily. Repair can make sense for an isolated component failure, while extensive damage, repeated problems, or an aging door may make replacement worth considering.
