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

In Tuscaloosa, the weather is often part of the story behind a garage door chain came off. Months of heat and humidity mean humidity corrodes hardware and falling limbs dent panels across Tuscaloosa County — exactly the kind of wear a local tech knows to check first.

What might be wrong

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
