More about this in Bridgeland
A garage door chain won't close the door when too much slack has built up for the motor to properly drive the trolley, or a sprocket tooth has jammed against the chain mid-cycle. The motor may still run and make noise even while the door itself goes nowhere. The town-level guide to garage door repair Bridgeland Texas covers every common fault in one place.
Call (346) 220-4724 to get the chain tension and sprockets checked before the motor takes more strain.
