(assume we are talking about your own house garage)
These garage doors could be easily detached from the chain (which connects to the motor). Talk a look and you should have a red string with a pull handle. Once you pull it down, the garage door detaches. After this and if the rail isn't damage, you should able to move the door up/down manually.
If it happens again, you could simply pull it down manually first and don't need to call for any emergency service (usually double the charge).作者: satil 時間: 2013-1-9 14:39
Satil is right...my garage is 2 car size garage door...
最初,一條彈弓斷咗,靜返一條,嘗試過人手開不過唔得,adjust過個motor(tune up the sensitivity or power level),開到,不過落嗰時個閘出咗軌,條軌都坳咗,所以個閘唔上唔落。其實個motor無問題。
到佢換咗條彈弓,個sensor同盞燈唔work。
next day 我叫咗另一個handyman嚟整safety sensor,佢check咗之後話要換個motor,我諗佢係話個logical board唔work所以要成個motor換。
Has anyone DIY on weatherstripping their garage doors? Bottom and sides? Where can we buy the parts from? Or is it something you have to hire professional to do?作者: Quest 時間: 2013-9-25 17:39
typical top lifting garage door comes with a bottom seal (*vinyl) that can be replaced easily when necessary. Nobody that I'm aware of would seal the sides due to sliding surface (rub off easily).
Incl. my own, many newer installation of the sheet metal garage door types now comes with some form of foam boards cut to size and taped to the back of the garage door to keep the heat inside.

Thx Quest. I notice another problem with my garage door. The door does not seem to close completely. I can see lights coming through the 2 sides of door, but not from the middle. So strange! Is it something wrong with the bottom weather seal or other parts of the door? Thx作者: Quest 時間: 2013-10-1 20:38
can you try taking a pic (from inside, light off) so as to show the gap with outside lights?
