Your automatic garage door relies on its motor unit to not only power its movement, but control and monitor it. Modern models have the ability to allow you to control the door using Wi-Fi technology, and they can add a lot of convenience and security to your home. However, things can still go wrong, and when they do, you'll need a professional to repair the problem.
Some Common Mechanical Issues
There are several different problems that your opener may encounter. If you discover that the motor is having some trouble running, it could be as a result from a worn or broken gear. If the connection between the door and the main motor unit seems to be at fault, the drive system, whether it’s a chain, a belt or a screw, could be malfunctioning. Whatever the case may be, most likely, you'll need some help dealing with the problem. It's very unwise to try to perform DIY repairs, as – aside from the potential risks – you could end up damaging some other part of the mechanism.
Additional Electrical Problems
Apart from issues of a mechanical nature, your garage door opener also uses electrical components, which means it could experience some trouble relating to them. The logic board in particular could be the source of some issues, as can the safety sensors, whose alignment can determine whether or not your door will reverse when it needs to. These are delicate components, so experience and skill are required to handle them.
