• Damage to the door components. While you may think a door is not opening because of automatic opener it could also be other parts of your door. Broken springs, work cables, bent rollers or doors that have jumped from their track or any other issues with hardware could also be the culprit.

• Damage to the opener bracket. If your opener is not properly attached to your garage ceiling, garage door opener bracket repair can likely solve the issue.
