When someone calls us and says there garage door opener is just making a humming sound and the door is not opening, we tell them it is probably either a stripped gear, or a jammed carriage, which is the part of the system that engages the chain or belt.
And that is usually the case when we come out and inspect it as well.
It’s not a complicated repair and we can repair either of these issues in short-order.
If you have a garage door opener that is not working correctly and reside in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky, just give us a call at (513) 821-5095.
