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 Kingsford Heights, IN. 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 Kingsford Heights. Three completely different repair paths determined by a thirty-second test in Kingsford Heights, IN.

The result of the manual lift immediately narrows the cause to one of three categories in Kingsford Heights. It takes thirty seconds and prevents misdiagnosis in Kingsford Heights, IN.
If the manual lift reveals a heavy door that won't hold its position, the spring system has failed in Kingsford Heights. EZ Open visually confirms the spring failure by inspecting the torsion spring for a visible gap in the coil in Kingsford Heights, IN. Both cables are assessed simultaneously for condition and drum seating in Kingsford Heights. If the spring is broken and a cable is also broken from the shock load, both are addressed together in Kingsford Heights, IN.
If the manual lift reveals a door that lifts easily and holds its position, the door hardware is functioning correctly in Kingsford Heights, IN. The opener is the source of the symptom in Kingsford Heights. EZ Open proceeds to the opener isolation sequence in Kingsford Heights, IN. Remote first. Wall button second. Trolley carriage connection third. Opener component assessment fourth in Kingsford Heights.
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 Kingsford Heights. EZ Open assesses the track for obstructions, damage, and misalignment in Kingsford Heights, IN. Both cables are inspected for failure that may have caused the door to jam in the track in Kingsford Heights. Rollers are assessed for any that may have jumped the track channel in Kingsford Heights, IN.
The manual release test result determines which of three completely different repair paths applies in Kingsford Heights, IN. Door too heavy means spring repair in Kingsford Heights. Door lifts freely means opener assessment in Kingsford Heights, IN. Door won't move means physical blockage assessment in Kingsford Heights. Without this test, every won't-open situation looks the same from the outside in Kingsford Heights, IN. With it, the correct diagnostic path is established in thirty seconds in Kingsford Heights.
A broken torsion spring removes the counterbalancing force that makes the door movable by the opener in Kingsford Heights, IN. The opener provides 10 to 20 pounds of net lifting force against a counterbalanced door in Kingsford Heights. Without spring counterbalancing, the opener is trying to lift 150 to 400 pounds with 10 to 20 pounds of force in Kingsford Heights, IN. The manual release test reveals a heavy door that won't hold its position in Kingsford Heights. A visible gap in the torsion spring coil confirms the break in Kingsford Heights, IN.
A broken cable allows one side of the door to drop, tilting the door in the track in Kingsford Heights. The tilted door is physically jammed against the track walls and can't travel in either direction in Kingsford Heights, IN. The manual release test reveals a door that won't move at all in Kingsford Heights. Inspection finds a loose cable at the bottom corner of the lower side in Kingsford Heights, IN.

A dead remote battery produces a door that doesn't respond to the remote in Kingsford Heights, IN. The wall button will operate the door normally in Kingsford Heights. If the door opens with the wall button but not the remote, replace the remote battery before calling for service in Kingsford Heights, IN. A new battery resolves this in approximately two minutes in Kingsford Heights.

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 Kingsford Heights. The frozen bond holds the door to the floor despite the opener providing its normal lifting force in Kingsford Heights, IN. The manual release test typically reveals a door that's very difficult to lift manually as the ice bond resists upward force in Kingsford Heights. Gentle heat application at the floor seal breaks the ice bond in most cases in Kingsford Heights, IN. Do not run the opener repeatedly against a frozen door in Kingsford Heights.
