The diagnostic sequence determines everything in Dunwoody. EZ Open performs the manual release test first on every won't-open call in Dunwoody, GA. The emergency release cord is pulled to disconnect the door from the opener trolley in Dunwoody. The door is manually lifted in Dunwoody, GA. If the door lifts easily and holds its position, the opener is the source of the problem in Dunwoody. If the door is very heavy or won't hold a raised position, the spring has failed and the opener symptom is a consequence of the spring failure in Dunwoody, GA. If the door won't move at all manually, the door is physically stuck from a cable failure, track obstruction, or off-track condition in Dunwoody. Three completely different repair paths determined by a thirty-second test in Dunwoody, GA. This test is why EZ Open doesn't replace the opener when the spring is the problem in Dunwoody.

The manual release cord disconnects the door from the opener trolley in Dunwoody, GA. With the trolley disconnected, the door can be manually lifted without the opener in Dunwoody. EZ Open performs this test before examining the opener, before examining the spring, and before examining anything else in Dunwoody, GA. The result of the manual lift immediately narrows the cause to one of three categories in Dunwoody. It takes thirty seconds and prevents misdiagnosis in Dunwoody, GA.
If the manual lift reveals a heavy door that won't hold its position, the spring system has failed in Dunwoody. EZ Open visually confirms the spring failure by inspecting the torsion spring for a visible gap in the coil in Dunwoody, GA. Both cables are assessed simultaneously for condition and drum seating in Dunwoody. If the spring is broken and a cable is also broken from the shock load, both are addressed together in Dunwoody, GA.
If the manual lift reveals a door that lifts easily and holds its position, the door hardware is functioning correctly in Dunwoody, GA. The opener is the source of the symptom in Dunwoody. EZ Open proceeds to the opener isolation sequence in Dunwoody, GA. Remote first. Wall button second. Trolley carriage connection third. Opener component assessment fourth in Dunwoody.
If the manual lift reveals a door that won't move at all, neither heavy nor light, just physically stopped, the door has a physical blockage in the travel path in Dunwoody. EZ Open assesses the track for obstructions, damage, and misalignment in Dunwoody, GA. Both cables are inspected for failure that may have caused the door to jam in the track in Dunwoody. Rollers are assessed for any that may have jumped the track channel in Dunwoody, GA.
The manual release test result determines which of three completely different repair paths applies in Dunwoody, GA. Door too heavy means spring repair in Dunwoody. Door lifts freely means opener assessment in Dunwoody, GA. Door won't move means physical blockage assessment in Dunwoody. Without this test, every won't-open situation looks the same from the outside in Dunwoody, GA. With it, the correct diagnostic path is established in thirty seconds in Dunwoody.
A broken torsion spring removes the counterbalancing force that makes the door movable by the opener in Dunwoody, GA. The opener provides 10 to 20 pounds of net lifting force against a counterbalanced door in Dunwoody. Without spring counterbalancing, the opener is trying to lift 150 to 400 pounds with 10 to 20 pounds of force in Dunwoody, GA. The manual release test reveals a heavy door that won't hold its position in Dunwoody. A visible gap in the torsion spring coil confirms the break in Dunwoody, GA.
A broken cable allows one side of the door to drop, tilting the door in the track in Dunwoody. The tilted door is physically jammed against the track walls and can't travel in either direction in Dunwoody, GA. The manual release test reveals a door that won't move at all in Dunwoody. Inspection finds a loose cable at the bottom corner of the lower side in Dunwoody, GA. Cable replacement and spring assessment are required in Dunwoody.
A failed opener component prevents the opener from producing the force needed to move the door in Dunwoody. The manual release test reveals a door that lifts easily and holds its position in Dunwoody, GA. The door hardware is functioning correctly in Dunwoody. The opener is the source of the symptom in Dunwoody, GA. Component assessment identifies the specific failed component in Dunwoody.
The emergency release cord disconnects the trolley carriage from the trolley in Dunwoody. If the carriage was disconnected and not reconnected, the opener runs the trolley along the rail while the carriage and door sit stationary in Dunwoody, GA. The door appears completely unopened and unresponsive in Dunwoody. The manual release test reveals a door that lifts easily because the carriage is already disconnected in Dunwoody, GA. Reconnecting the carriage to the trolley resolves the symptom immediately in Dunwoody. No component is damaged or failed in Dunwoody, GA.
A door that has come off its track has a roller outside the track channel creating a physical blockage in Dunwoody, GA. The door can't travel in either direction through the blockage in Dunwoody. The manual release test reveals a door that won't move at all in Dunwoody, GA. Visual inspection finds the roller or rollers outside the track channel in Dunwoody. Off-track repair with cause identification is required before the door can open correctly in Dunwoody, GA.
A dead remote battery produces a door that doesn't respond to the remote in Dunwoody, GA. The wall button will operate the door normally in Dunwoody. If the door opens with the wall button but not the remote, replace the remote battery before calling for service in Dunwoody, GA. A new battery resolves this in approximately two minutes in Dunwoody. If the door doesn't respond to either the remote or the wall button, the problem is in the opener or door hardware and a service call is warranted in Dunwoody, GA.
In cold climates, water from condensation or melting snow freezes at the contact point between the door's bottom seal and the garage floor overnight in Dunwoody. The frozen bond holds the door to the floor despite the opener providing its normal lifting force in Dunwoody, GA. The manual release test typically reveals a door that's very difficult to lift manually as the ice bond resists upward force in Dunwoody. Gentle heat application at the floor seal breaks the ice bond in most cases in Dunwoody, GA. Do not run the opener repeatedly against a frozen door in Dunwoody.
An object in the track, debris accumulation at a specific point, or a bent track section narrows the channel below the roller diameter in Dunwoody. The door opens to the obstruction point and stops in Dunwoody, GA. The manual release test may show the door lifting partially and then stopping at the obstruction in Dunwoody. Track clearing or track repair is required to restore full travel in Dunwoody, GA.
Before any other action, try the wall button inside the garage in Dunwoody, GA. If the wall button opens the door, the problem is with the remote rather than the door or opener in Dunwoody. Replace the remote battery first in Dunwoody, GA. If the wall button also produces no response, the problem is in the opener or door hardware and EZ Open's service is needed in Dunwoody.
Look at the opener trolley and the carriage bracket that connects to the door in Dunwoody. If the carriage hook is hanging freely rather than engaged in the trolley, the emergency release was pulled and not reconnected in Dunwoody, GA. Pull the red emergency release cord toward the door to re-engage the carriage in Dunwoody. If the door then opens with the opener, no repair was needed in Dunwoody, GA.
Look at the torsion spring on the shaft above the door opening in Dunwoody, GA. A broken spring has a visible gap in the otherwise continuous coil where the wire separated in Dunwoody. If a gap is visible, do not attempt to open the door in Dunwoody, GA. Call EZ Open for same-day broken spring repair in Dunwoody.
Running the opener repeatedly against a door that won't open risks stripping the drive gear in Dunwoody. Manually pulling a door that's jammed from a cable failure or off-track condition can damage the panel at the force application point in Dunwoody, GA. Forcing a door with a broken cable can release the door suddenly in Dunwoody. The cost of the forced damage adds to whatever the original repair cost would have been in Dunwoody, GA.
