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

There's a local angle to a garage door chain came off in West Hartford: the area's freezing winters is hard on garage doors — cold snaps brittle springs, and snow & ice jam tracks. Our West Hartford techs see these failures spike around every January cold snap, so they track down the real cause instead of masking the symptom.

What might be wrong
