Living with Salem's constant damp and cold mornings means garage doors work harder here than most people realize. cold mornings stiffen rollers and moisture warps wood & seals both feed straight into a garage door won't stay closed, which is why our Marion County techs treat the cause, not just the door in front of them.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door won't stay closed

Sensitive or misaligned sensors
Touchy photo-eyes can send the door back up.
A bad logic board
Occasionally the opener's board misreads the door position.
