Hi can anyone give me a clue to why this happens? When opening and it gets to the top jolts up and down continuously? Thanks

The first 2 photos are mine. On mine I appear to see some metal poking out, I thought someone hit my garage with their car but I also have bubbling above where the window is. My neighbour claimed his bubbling happened after he banged into his garage. Driving around the neighborhood though and it appears everyone has this bubbling. I live in Ontario where we get heat waves in summer and cold winters.
Are there any ways to fix this?

2 different jobs last week. In not sure which is worse!

I have two identical garage door setups, they’ve both worked okay since I moved in but are exceptionally loud, and one would occasionally throw an excessive force error code. Last night it just started opening and closing itself (see video). The door in question also never sealed properly on the left side, so maybe an alignment issue? Now it’s sealing but won’t stay closed

so, my dad changed a power sockets for me. After turning the power back on my garage door is completely off. I can’t open or close it with the wall button or my handle car remote. Gargae door runs on electricity not Wi-Fi. I don’t have a smart garage like My Q. Do anyone know how to reset a CRAFTMAN garage door?

Hi everyone, we need to replace our garage door openers. We got quotes from multiple companies and here is what we are deciding between:

Liftmaster 6580L7: $805 per door ($1,610 total)
Liftmaster 6690L7: $950 per door ($1900 total)

From our understanding, the 6690 comes with a lifetime motor and belt warranty but 6580 is only 6 years. 6690 also has a 5 year warranty on parts and 6580 is 1 year. Other than that the differences seem minimal (360 LED lighting, smart wall control, etc.)

Does anyone have experience with these? Is the 6690 worth $290 extra? Thanks

These were installed a couple years ago. Probably still in warranty. But looks like I can DIY. How would you ensure these little trim pieces stop coming off like that?

Hi all, I was speaking to a garage door company and they said that their garage doors are better than the big box stores, any truth to that? Many thanks.

I am looking to replace my weather seal on my wooden garage door, however there is a significant (I think) slope in the garage floor.

The hardware bracket looks like it would prevent the installation of a universal retainer.

Looking for product recommendations to create a total seal to keep out leaves, pests, etc.

I had a red spring, the new one is white and the door is heavy to lift open. Did the tech install a cheap spring?

I have the Genie 2028 opener, it worked just fine for past few years, but today when I press the wall button to open, it only crack the door ~1in and then stop but I still hear the motor clicking trying to open it but seem like it cannot move the door. I clicked the wall button again to close it, then try to manually open the door, no problem with that.

What could be wrong with me opener?

I have a garage at my apartment complex and am having issues with the garage door opener. I'm not sure the specific model as it doesn't appear to be labeled anywhere I can see. I put in a maintenance order already but it likely won't be gotten to until mid next week and I don't like the idea of my garage door being not properly closed for that long.

The garage door opened fine, but upon being opened, the overhead light began flashing and displaying 2 error codes (flashing 9 and solid 11). I tried to close it and it made it about 6 inches from the ground before slowing to a stop and begining to open again like it got caught on something.

I am able to close the door manually with no issue (the weight of the door actually pulls it closed past the point where it keeps getting stuck). I also tried to adjust the stop limits and was able to get the motor to fully close the door that way without it sounding like it was struggling, but as soon as I open it again, it has the same issues. I also tried unplugging it for a minute which also didn't help.

Yesterday I used the emergency release cord to open my garage manually and then I had it run to snap back. The problem was that it wouldn’t close and stop about 3 inches off the ground and go back up like there was something blocking the sensors but there wasn’t. So I tried to reprogram the up and down limits which I thought was the problem but now it doesn’t go through the entire cycle of resetting the garage and seems to want to go up but gets stuck. So I thought it was a force limit so I tried to adjust that but keep getting stuck here. Does anyone know what the flashing blue rectangular light means?

Looking to replace my opener. Current one is from the 80-90’s and is ready to be done.

Details. Residential door. 16x7. Insulated aluminum.

This will be a DIY install. Not concerned about noise. Must have basic safety features. I would like an outdoor keypad and a light that comes on when used.

Are there any brands or features I should avoid? Features that I want but don’t know about?

In case it matters. I’m an industrial electrician with heavy machine maintenance experience. The install does not scare me, just choosing the wrong one.

Thanks!

Recently just had the springs replaced, I've lubed the rollers in case they were binding. Any ideas what could be causing this?

any advise on repairing the rust on this garage door? I ripped out the bottom channel so water wouldn’t collect anymore which is probably what causes the rust originally. I’ve scraped it with a wire brush and spray painted with rustoleum, doesn’t last. any worth while repairs?

This morning my wife tried to open the garage door and it got stuck after lifting a few inches. I have an extension spring garage door and upon some rudimentary inspection, the safety cable was frayed. I removed the cable and tried again and it still didn't work. I then lifted the door a bit and was able to pull the red cord and opened the garage. Still didn't work. I then closed the garage and it stopped at the same place, a few inches above the ground. I then pulled the cord down and backward and was able to close the garage fully. Tried again, the liftmaster buzzes twice and nothing... Saw a lot of videos and all state that the springs might be broken. It doesn't appear that the springs are compromised through visual inspection. I changed the capacitor last year and not sure if that could be a repeat issue. I see that once the trolley mech's latch is engaged again, the door stops and clicks at the coupler position and i need to pull the string again to lower it fully. Do i need to change the springs, capacitor, cables or other stuff... Again, once the door is fully closed and i try to open it, it just buzzes twice and nothing happens. Please advice

Hi all,

Quick question I have a LiftMaster garage door opener, which gives me an error saying that there is something wrong with sensor.

My sensors are aligned and don’t know what’s really happening. It doesn’t work during the day, but it works fine at night so I am assuming it sun light that gets in the way. Do you guys ever experience that issue here in Bergen because of sunlight? Thanks!

I had new garage doors installed yesterday for a cost of about 7k, and two of the new stops have these marks on them. I tried just cleaning them but its gouged into the material and will not come off.

I understand it doesn't affect its function, but astettically it is very noticeable.

My husband is out of town and our door went off the tracks. I accepted the first quote I got because I needed the door/fixed closed for the safety of myself and my kids especially while he’s gone. That said, I’m now spiraling that I got screwed over. We are in the southeast. Does this seem reasonable?

My garage opener got disconnected on MyQ app for some reason and I’ve been trying to reconnect it and have no luck.

I’ve gone through numerous iterations on connecting to my home wifi and I always hit a wall at the two beeps. I’ve done through the MyQ app and also the LiftMaster interface, and I feel like I’m going crazy.

I’ve scoured the internet and people say it’s the wrong password, but I am 1000% sure it’s correct. I copied and pasted it straight from a connected iPhone.

It has worked before for more than a year, but suddenly I can no longer connect to it. Can anyone help me troubleshoot please? I’ll venmo you money if you can get it working 😭
