When the opener runs but the door won't move in Broken Arrow, the trolley, gear, or a disconnected door is usually the cause. Most are same-day repairs.

Why does this keep happening in Broken Arrow? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Wild temperature swings and hail takes its toll — hail dents panels, and temp swings fatigue springs — so a opener runs but the door won't move is one of the more common calls our Broken Arrow crews run.

What might be wrong

Here's what our local techs check first — and what each one usually means.

A disengaged trolley
If the emergency-release was pulled, the opener runs but isn't connected to the door.

A worn drive gear spins without moving the carriage.
A broken spring making the door too heavy
The opener runs but can't lift a door with no spring help.
