Finding a dealer

You can use the Liftmaster website to locate a dealer near you. You can also call a local garage door business and ask if they carry the common brand.  

Troubleshooting

Garage doors come with two sensors that are placed on either side of the opening. These sensors act as a safety mechanism to protect the door, your property, and you. If something is blocking the sensor, the door will not shut completely. Sometimes these sensors can get knocked out of place and cause your door to act erratically. If this happens, one of the first things to check is the alignment of the sensor. 

Need regular maintenance?

Garage doors don’t require much attention to continue operating in a predictable way. However, it’s smart to inspect the system a couple of times each year. Look and listen to the machine including the rollers. Replace weatherstripping that’s seen better days. Lubricate parts that move and roll, and check the cables for any fraying. If you spot any problems, it might be a good idea to have a technician come out to inspect the machine and fix any small problems before they get bigger.
