A garage door opener chain that came off in Rockville 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 Rockville? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Freezing winters takes its toll — cold snaps brittle springs, and road salt corrodes hardware — so a garage door chain came off is one of the more common calls our Rockville crews run.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door chain came off

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

A loose chain
Over time the chain stretches and slips off the sprocket.
A worn sprocket or gear
A worn drive sprocket lets the chain jump.
A jammed door putting strain on the chain
If the door binds, the chain can be thrown off.
How we fix it

Fixed fast by a local Rockville pro
