Most Common Residential Garage Door Repairs
In Pittsburgh, we find that many problems can happen to your garage door over time due to wear and tear. We are your one stop shop for all of your garage door repair needs. Below is a short list of what we find are the most common repairs we perform.
Broken Garage Door Spring RepairA common reason for your garage door not working is a broken spring. A spring provides tension to help your garage door opener lift your garage door. This is an issue you can usually diagnose fairly easily. Springs are typically directly above the garage door near the wall. As the picture shows, when it breaks, it is easy to spot the problem. It’s important to note that if you have two springs on your garage door, you’ll most likely need to have both springs replaced.
Note: Please do not attempt to repair or replace a spring on your own, call our Pittsburgh garage door repair professionals as this particular repair can be very hazardous. |
Garage Door Opener Malfunction RepairImagine you push your garage door clicker button and ... nothing happens. Sometimes this can be because of simple reasons. The battery in your clicker is dead. Maybe your garage door opener got unplugged. Could be the photo-eye is blocked or damaged. If it is none of these things, then there is most likely a problem with the opener itself. Rather then taking it apart yourself and potentially doing more harm then good, we recommend that you call in a pro to diagnose the problem. At K&B Doormasters, we pride ourselves in being honest, reliable and fast when it comes to garage door opener problems. We can service or repair any opener of any make or model.

Malfunctioning Photo-Eyes RepairA common reason for a garage door not closing on your Pittsburgh home can be a malfunctioning photo-eye. Photo eyes are there to keep the garage door from closing if an object passes through the infrared beams. Photo-eyes need to be lined up correctly, if the alignment is thrown off it may cause your garage door to not close. Also, if the lens on one or both of the photo eyes is dirty with debris, this can also cause your garage door to not operate. With both of these scenarios, your photo-eyes system assumes that there is an obstruction in the door. If your photo eye is flashing that means an obstruction is in the path of the door. Remove the debris and adjust the photo-eye until the indicator light is no longer flashing. Your door should now properly operate. If that doesn't work, contact us.

Garage Door Off Track RepairSometimes garage doors come off track for no apparent reason. But there are a few reasons this can happen. The main reason is that the garage door was struck by a car. The said vehicle doesn’t have to be moving fast - maybe only 3 to 5 mph (5 to 8 km/h) to do real damage. The next common reason is the horizontal tracks bend under the weight of the door or the tracks aren’t aligned properly. This is why hiring a professional to install your garage door in the first place is so important. Next is if one or two of your garage door rollers break prematurely from extreme wear, or they are of lower quality. We only use quality parts to reduce the chance of this. Sometimes the lift cable breaks. It is more rare, but if you never had professional garage door maintenance, and it is old, then this can happen. Call or contact us if this is what went wrong with your garage door and we will get it back to perfect in no time.

Malfunctioning Remote ControlIf you’ve discovered that there’s no issue with your photo-eyes or garage door spring on your Pittsburgh garage door, another thing to check is your remote control to your garage door opener. If you find that it’s only one garage door remote that doesn’t work correctly, your remote may just need a new battery. If you replace the battery in the remote and it still doesn’t work, give a reputable garage door company (like us!) a call to diagnose the problem. A new garage door opener is typically not needed, unless yours is more than 10 years old.

Loud / Noisy Garage Door RepairOur expert repair men can diagnose and fix any strange noises with your Pittsburgh garage door. Noisy doors are very common and there can be a couple of reasons why your garage door is noisy. This issue can sometimes be fixed with a manufacturer recommended lubricant. Hinges, rollers and springs should be lubricated regularly to keep these parts running smoothly for many years. If this isn’t the issue then contact your local K&B Doormaster Distributor to assist you with diagnosing the issue as you may need a replacement part for your garage door system.

Broken Garage Door Cable RepairIt is rare, but sometimes your garage door cable can come loose or break all together. When this happens, do not attempt to fix this on your own as improper repairs can lead to many problems in the future. To make sure your garage door cables are adjusted perfectly and insure proper garage door function, contact us right away, and we will fix this fast and affordably.

This can cause many problems to your garage door including loud and squeaky operation, damage to the door itself, causing the door to come off track and more. Have our experts come out to replace your rollers as part of routine maintenance or if a broken roller causes a problem.
