Which part is which?

Knowing the names of the parts makes it easier to describe the problem on the form.

Parts of a sectional garage door systemInside view of a sectional garage door. Torsion springs sit on a shaft above the door with a cable drum at each end. Lift cables run from the drums down to the bottom brackets. Rollers ride in vertical tracks that curve into horizontal tracks along the ceiling. The opener motor hangs from the ceiling on a rail with a trolley and emergency release cord.

How a sectional garage door works: torsion springs and cable drums above the door, lift cables down to the bottom brackets, rollers in the tracks, the opener on its rail, and safety sensors near the floor. Original diagram; generic parts, not any brand's product.

Springs, cables and bottom brackets hold a lot of tension. DASMA says spring systems should be repaired only by trained professionals, so if one of those parts looks broken, stop using the door and keep everyone clear.

Still not sure which service you need?

That's normal. A door that won't open could be a spring, a cable, the opener or a sensor. Choose "Not sure yet" on the form and describe what you see and hear. The companies you're matched with will diagnose it, and you're never obligated to hire.
