What's happening right now?

Door stuck open

Safely, right now

  1. Leave it where it stopped. Don't pull it down by hand or keep pressing the button.
  2. Nobody walks, plays or parks under the door until it has been checked.
  3. Leave the red emergency release alone while the door is up: it can come down hard.

Door won't close

Safely, right now

  1. Don't keep hitting the button. Repeated tries can do more damage than the first fault.
  2. Don't step or reach under the door to move anything. If a bin, bike or snow is in the way, mention it when you call.
  3. Never tape over, bypass or move the little sensors near the floor to force it shut.

Spring snapped

Safely, right now

  1. Leave the door and the opener alone: no lifting it by hand, no pressing the button.
  2. Keep everyone, pets included, and every vehicle away from the door.
  3. If the door is open, leave the red emergency release alone: without the spring it can fall.

Car stuck inside

Safely, right now

  1. Never try to push through the door with the car.
  2. If you heard a bang or the door feels heavy, don't pull the release or lift it. A spring may be broken.
  3. Plan on leaving the car where it is until the door has been checked.

Request a visit What the fix involves

A residential garage door can weigh as much as two grown adults, and the springs above it are wound to carry exactly that load. Our technicians in Tottenham work with winding bars, clamps and stands, secure the door before touching tension, and run it through full cycles before they call the job finished. The same crew covers Achill, Athlone, Cedarville, Colgan, Connor, Hockley, Keenansville, Loretto, Black Horse and Rich Hill.

The fix, explained · Tottenham

What is the door doing?

EmergencyTorsion Spring ReplacementOn a cold morning the remote does nothing useful: the light comes on, the motor turns briefly, the door stays shut.

The fix

On a door with two springs, replacement usually starts with a conversation about scope. Both springs have completed the same number of cycles, so when one breaks the other is typically close behind, and replacing the pair together gives the door two matched springs sharing the load evenly.

Until then

  1. When a spring breaks, the safe approach for the household is to leave the door where it is, keep people and vehicles clear, and avoid running the opener, which can damage the top section, the trolley or the gear drive.

  2. Pull the manual release only when the door is fully closed unless a technician asks otherwise; a door disconnected while partly open can move on its own if the springs are out of balance.

EmergencyOff-Track Garage Door ResetThere was a loud bang from the garage, then silence.

The fix

The reason to stop pressing the wall button is that an opener cannot tell a racked door from a heavy one. Each cycle drives the tilted sections harder into the rails, bending hinges, tearing the track from the jamb and stressing the cables that are already out of place.

Until then

  1. Never run the opener on a door that is off its track or hanging crooked; every cycle drives the racked door harder into the rails and can pull the track from the wall or tear a hinge.

  2. Pull the manual release only when the door is fully closed unless a technician asks otherwise; a door disconnected while partly open can move on its own if the springs are out of balance.

EmergencyGarage Door Cable ReplacementThe door went up as usual this morning, then stopped a third of the way with one corner higher than the other.

The fix

What you get back is a door that behaves as it did when it was new. Both corners rise and fall together, the bottom seal meets the floor along its whole length, and the opener runs without straining or reversing.

Until then

  1. Never run the opener on a door that is off its track or hanging crooked; every cycle drives the racked door harder into the rails and can pull the track from the wall or tear a hinge.

  2. Pull the manual release only when the door is fully closed unless a technician asks otherwise; a door disconnected while partly open can move on its own if the springs are out of balance.

EmergencyExtension Spring ReplacementIt is the first hard frost of the year and the door on the old detached garage has stopped halfway, squealing at one pulley.

The fix

Choosing the right spring is a matter of weight, not colour. Extension springs are rated for the weight they are meant to lift, and the correct pair for your door is found by weighing the door itself with the opener released, then checking that figure against the wire size, coil diameter and length of the old springs.

Until then

  1. When a spring breaks, the safe approach for the household is to leave the door where it is, keep people and vehicles clear, and avoid running the opener, which can damage the top section, the trolley or the gear drive.

  2. Pull the manual release only when the door is fully closed unless a technician asks otherwise; a door disconnected while partly open can move on its own if the springs are out of balance.

Book soonEmergency Release RepairSomeone pulled the cord last spring to get a car out during an outage, and the door has never properly rejoined the opener.

The fix

The visit runs in a fixed order. On the phone you describe what the release did, where the door was, and what kind of opener hangs from the ceiling.

Until then

  1. Pull the release with the door fully closed whenever possible, and keep the opening clear as you do.

  2. Lift a door by its handles or the gripping points on the panel face, never at the joint between sections, which closes as the door bends around the track.

Book soonGarage Door Opener Diagnosis and RepairThe motor runs, the chain rattles along the rail, and the door does not move a millimetre.

The fix

Every diagnosis ends with the same two tests, because an opener that moves the door is only half fixed. First, a length of 2x4 is laid flat on the floor under the centre of the door and the door is closed onto it; it must reverse on contact and return to fully open.

Until then

  1. Pull the release with the door fully closed whenever possible, and keep the opening clear as you do.

  2. Never drive a vehicle at a closed door to get out; the door collapses and the stored tension in the counterbalance is released.

    Putting it right

    Finding the real cause. A door that stops halfway can be a sensor, a spring or a stripped gear. We test each possibility rather than assuming the obvious one.

    Putting it right. The technician fits the correct parts, adjusts the opener to the door, and shows you the result running through full cycles.

What the census means at the door

32%

Newer homes. About 32% of homes in New Tecumseth were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.

Newer garages tend to have generous headroom and a finished ceiling, so options such as a jackshaft opener mounted beside the door, or a high-lift conversion for a car hoist, are practical. The technician checks the space and explains what would fit.

71%

Mostly houses. Single-detached houses make up about 71% of homes in New Tecumseth (2021 Census).

Where homes are detached, the garage is frequently a workshop or storage room as well as parking, and the door may be opened dozens of times on a Saturday. Sealed-bearing rollers, protected sensors and a regular tune-up keep a hard-working door running smoothly.

Request a visit for a stuck or noisy door in Tottenham.

We aim to leave every garage in Tottenham with a door that runs smoothly, closes fully and stops for anything in its path. That means balance set, tracks aligned, hardware tight, sensors tested and remotes working, whatever the original call was about, because a door is only fixed when all of it works.

New Tecumseth and Beeton

  • You understand what we found. We point to the worn part, show what it should look like and explain what happens if it stays as it is.

  • Tools and parts kept tidy. Our kit stays in one spot, cables and springs are bagged as they come out, and nothing gets left behind.

  • More than one way forward. Repair the part, refresh the whole system, or start over with a new door: we explain each so you can choose confidently.

Advice · (249) 501-9698

What exactly gets looked at during the inspection?

The whole system, not just the opener. Sections, hinges, rollers, tracks and their fasteners; springs, cables, drums and bottom brackets; the bottom seal and perimeter weatherstrip; the opener head, rail, arm and mounting; the photo eyes, contact reversal, wall control, remotes, keypad and manual release; and the warning labels. Each is examined, and the door is tested both by hand and under power.

Are the bottom rollers different from the rest?

The wheels themselves are usually the same, but their home is not. The bottom rollers sit in the bottom brackets, which also anchor the lifting cables and therefore carry the counterbalance load whenever the door is closed. That is why manufacturers put warning labels there and why this position is handled by a trained technician who either exchanges the roller without disturbing the bracket or relieves the spring tension first. It is also the position most exposed to salt and slush, so it is inspected with extra care.

Are hinges on a wood door different?

The hinges themselves are the same numbered galvanized parts, but the fastening changes. Wood stiles take lag screws or carriage bolts with nuts and washers rather than self-drilling metal screws, and the timber's condition matters as much as the hinge. Softened or split wood around the holes is filled, reinforced or bridged with a backer plate before the hinge goes back on, so the new hardware bites into something solid.

The door was fine until a power cut. Why is it heavy now?

During a power cut the door is often released and moved by hand for the first time in years, and what people discover is a door that had already grown heavy while the opener quietly covered for it. The outage did not change the springs; it revealed them. A balance check confirms what the door weighs against what the springs give, and resets them to match.
