A garage door opener chain that came off in Fort Smith is usually a tension or worn-sprocket issue. We can re-seat and re-tension it the same day.

Why does this keep happening in Fort Smith? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Heat and humidity takes its toll — humidity corrodes hardware, and falling limbs dent panels — so a garage door chain came off is one of the more common calls our Fort Smith crews run.

What might be wrong
