You can expect a high-quality, properly maintained garage door to last 25 to 30 years or longer, but even the best doors may exhibit mechanical issues now and then. Repairing a broken garage door is typically not a do-it-yourself project. Working with springs, cables and other parts and components is complicated — and potentially dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing.
If you’re experiencing problems with the operation of a residential or commercial garage door in Bloomington, MN, Baldwin, WI, or anywhere else in the Twin Cities or Western Wisconsin, contact the experts at BlackHawk Garage Door.

4 Common Garage Door Problems
Our certified repair technicians can handle all types of garage door repair challenges, including the typical issues that residential and commercial property owners face. Four of the most common issues that we handle on a regular basis follow.
1. Broken Springs
Garage door springs are essential for the safe, efficient opening and closing. Wear and tear, rust and improper maintenance can eventually cause springs to break and possibly prevent you from operating the door. A snapping spring unleashes a high volume of stored energy, which can cause significant injuries or property damage.
If you’re noticing the telltale signs of weakening springs, such as corrosion, unusual noises or uneven door opening, call BlackHawk Garage Door right away to perform a spring repair or spring replacement.
2. Broken Cables
Cables run through the springs and prevent them from recoiling when they snap. Because of their crucial garage door safety role, it’s essential to replace broken cables as soon as possible. Our professional technicians can take care of this delicate, potentially hazardous garage door repair task for you.
3. Problems Opening or Closing
A garage door may fail to open or close for many reasons — examples include broken springs, a blocked photo-eye, snapped cables or a malfunctioning opener. We’re able to diagnose the problem and perform the necessary repair steps quickly and correctly to get the door working properly again as soon as possible.
4. Unresponsive Door Opener
An opener serves as a garage door’s operating system. If it doesn’t work, neither will your door. We’ll perform a series of troubleshooting steps to determine why your opener isn’t functioning properly, whether it’s dead batteries or something more significant like a burned-out motor or a damaged main gear drive.
