Garage Door Questions
Why won't my garage door stay down?
There could be several reasons your door won’t stay up or won’t go down. While the simplest answer may be the sensor is blocked, there could be other reasons that require further investigation. If you notice inconsistent operation, opening or closing on its own, unusual noises, or failure to completely close, you may need to replace your garage door opener. Have one of our expert technicians come to evaluate the best solution. Learn more or call us for service TODAY at 317-860-0806 !
What's a temporary fix for a broken garage door?
Depending on what needs to be fixed, the door type, and its features, you can visually assess what needs to be done to maintain security or gain entry.
- If the garage door should have a lock that you can manually lock and unlock for entry and safety purposes.
- If the garage door is not opening, check the sensor to make sure there is nothing blocking the signal. You may need to wipe debris off and try again.
You should not force your garage door to open as it will cause further damage.
In most cases, you will need additional assistance if the locking mechanism or your garage door opener is not functioning properly. However, if you have damage to your rollers, springs, cables, or track, it is better to have a trained technician determine the cause and provide a solution that keeps you safe and within budget. Whether you need a simple repair or a replacement, call us for service TODAY at 317-860-0806 !
How do I fix a garage door I backed into?
Depending on the extent of the damage, you may be able to install a garage door yourself. At a bare minimum, you will need to know how to perform the following:
- Detaching the door
- Measuring the right dimensions
- Laying new tracks
- Attaching brackets and rollers
- Placing and securing panels
- Testing to make sure the job is done right!
While these are a simple outline of the steps you may need to take, it doesn’t hurt to have a professional examine the damage. Not only will our technicians give you peace of mind by securely fixing your garage door without unintentional harm to yourself, but you will also be backed by our warranty, service, and support.

How do you reset a garage door after pulling the emergency cord?
Before reattaching your garage door, make sure that the sensors are working properly. Blinking lights are an indicator of an obstruction. Pull back the emergency release cord until you see the lever connected to the cord attach itself to the automatic garage door opener. You should also hear it click into place. Typically, your garage door opener will automatically reconnect after you manually open and close the garage door after you. Read more….

A regular maintenance schedule will not only extend the life of your garage door but also ensure that you are always able to enter and exit freely and safely throughout the year. Read more…..
How often does a garage door need to be replaced? What is the life cycle of a garage door?

What are the benefits of an insulated garage door?
Not only are insulated garage doors made to resist harsh elements, such as brutal Indiana winters, they also have a major benefit of increasing energy efficiency. If the garage door is insulated, it will keep the heat inside during the winter and prevent hot air from coming into the garage during the summer. Keeping your garage climate-controlled can reduce the energy used to keep your home warm or cool, specifically for homes with attached garages. A reduction in energy used can result in a decrease in cost.
