A garage door frozen shut in Farmington Hills usually just needs the ice seal broken — but repeated freezing can damage the bottom seal, rollers, or opener.

There's a local angle to a garage door frozen shut in Farmington Hills: the area's freezing winters is hard on garage doors — cold snaps brittle springs, and summer storms surge openers. Our Farmington Hills techs see these failures spike around every January cold snap, so they track down the real cause instead of masking the symptom.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door frozen shut

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

Ice bonding the seal to the slab
Melt-and-refreeze cycles glue the weather seal to the floor.
A stiff or cracked bottom seal
Cold makes the rubber brittle so it tears when forced.
An over-strained opener
Repeatedly fighting a frozen door can burn out the opener.
How we fix it
