When the opener runs but the door won't move in San Angelo, the trolley, gear, or a disconnected door is usually the cause. Most are same-day repairs.

Why does this keep happening in San Angelo? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Wild temperature swings and hail takes its toll — hail dents panels, and temp swings fatigue springs — so a opener runs but the door won't move is one of the more common calls our San Angelo crews run.
