A Word of Caution About DIY Garage Door Repair

There are a couple of things you can do when the overhead door of your garage won’t open. If you have an automatic opener with a remote control that you typically use, replace the batteries. Hopefully, that gets you back in business. If not, another thing you can check is to see if the electronic “eye” sensors are dirty or misaligned—assuming you have an alternative way to get inside the garage.

Those are two common problems that can prevent your overhead garage door from functioning properly. If neither of those are the issue, then it’s time to call Garage Doors of Indianapolis. There are a whole range of issues that could be the problem, and many of them could result in serious personal injury if you try to fix them yourself. Play it safe and bring in a professional residential garage door repair, service, and maintenance expert to do the job. And we’re only ever a phone call away at 317-860-0806.

Most people don’t think about their garage doors until something goes wrong and they stop working properly. When that happens, it’s time to call in an expert technician from the one company in the entire greater Indianapolis area who makes this commitment to you:

Our Menu of Garage Door Repair Services

A garage door seems like a relatively simple affair, which may be the case with a manual door. But when you throw in automatic garage door openers, things quickly escalate in complexity. Below are the many different garage door repair services we provide:

  • Panel Repair or Replacement: We can often (but not always) repair a portion of a door rather than replacement of the entire door.
  • Springs: Torsion springs are what make your door go up and down easily. If one or more springs are broken, your door may not work properly, and they’re not something you should try to fix yourself because they’re under high tension.
  • Cables: The lifting cables that help many garage doors operate are also under high tension. Never attempt a DIY cable repair or replacement!
  • Rollers: Replacement rollers have to be the exact correct size, which we can quickly determine.
  • Dead Remote: If the remote control for your door opener isn’t working, replace the batteries. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, give us a call and we’ll figure out what’s going on.
  • Opener: The mechanism that actually opens an automatic garage door has plenty of potential problem areas that experience wear and tear over time, but our expert technicians can quickly diagnose what’s happening and why.
  • Off-Track Door: It’s not easy to put a door back on its track if it has become dislodged. This is a serious project you should not try to do yourself. Let the professionals do the heavy lifting!

You never have to worry when Garage Doors of Indianapolis is on the job. We have the parts and experience needed to fix issues with any type of garage door.
