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 Seven Corners, VA. 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 Seven Corners. Three completely different repair paths determined by a thirty-second test in Seven Corners, VA. This test is why EZ Open doesn't replace the opener when the spring is the problem in Seven Corners.

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

Reconnecting the carriage to the trolley resolves the symptom immediately in Seven Corners. No component is damaged or failed in Seven Corners, VA.

If the door opens with the wall button but not the remote, replace the remote battery before calling for service in Seven Corners, VA.

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 Seven Corners, VA.
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 Seven Corners. The frozen bond holds the door to the floor despite the opener providing its normal lifting force in Seven Corners, VA. The manual release test typically reveals a door that's very difficult to lift manually as the ice bond resists upward force in Seven Corners. Gentle heat application at the floor seal breaks the ice bond in most cases in Seven Corners, VA. Do not run the opener repeatedly against a frozen door in Seven Corners.
An object in the track, debris accumulation at a specific point, or a bent track section narrows the channel below the roller diameter in Seven Corners.

Replace the remote battery first in Seven Corners, VA. 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 Seven Corners.

If the carriage hook is hanging freely rather than engaged in the trolley, the emergency release was pulled and not reconnected in Seven Corners, VA.
