A garage door that opens slowly in Caldwell is often dry rollers, a weak opener, or a speed setting. A tune-up usually solves it.

Why does this keep happening in Caldwell? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Freezing cold and heavy snow takes its toll — cold snaps brittle springs, and high-altitude sun cracks seals — so a garage door opens slowly is one of the more common calls our Caldwell crews run.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door opens slowly

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

Dry or worn rollers and hinges

Friction from un-lubricated hardware drags the door down.

A speed/force setting

Some openers have an adjustable travel speed.

An aging opener motor

A worn motor slows over time.

How we fix it

Fixed fast by a local Caldwell pro

We lubricate and replace worn rollers, adjust the settings, and check the opener so the door moves at full speed.
