Winter in Lansing is long and hard, the housing stock is old, and many garages are unheated and uninsulated. This is what we actually find here, and what we check on every visit.
On the coldest Lansing mornings, meltwater at the bottom seal freezes overnight and bonds the door to the floor. Running the opener against a frozen seal strains the motor and can tear the seal or bend the bottom panel, which is why a stuck door gets freed gently, never forced.
Spring steel loses flexibility in deep cold, and a Lansing spring near the end of its cycle life often chooses a freezing morning to snap - usually with a bang loud enough to hear inside the house. A door that suddenly feels impossibly heavy has lost a spring, not its opener.
A dead door in a Lansing January is not an inconvenience - it can mean no car, no plow access and a garage open to the weather. That is why a door that will not close, or a car trapped by a snapped spring, goes to the front of our dispatch list.
Cold garage air meeting warmer house air fogs the photo-eye sensors on Lansing doors, and frost or a knocked bracket breaks the beam. A door that reverses at the floor in winter is often a sensor story, not an opener failure - and the diagnosis proves which.

Same-day service, free estimates, licensed & insured — and a garage door that opens, closes and secures again.
Do not keep running the opener: a door bonded to the floor by ice can tear its bottom seal or strain the motor and top panel. Warm water along the seal frees most frozen doors in Lansing. If it still will not move, or it moved and now runs crooked, have it checked - ice in the track bends hardware.
Most often a broken spring: the opener can start the lift but cannot carry the full weight once the balance point passes. In a Lansing winter it can also be the door binding on ice in the track. Either way, stop cycling the opener and have it looked at before the motor pays for it.
If the springs are intact, yes: pull the red cord with the door closed and lift steadily - it should rise and hold position. If it feels like lifting the heavy end of a piano, a spring is gone. Stop there; a full-weight door in Tompkins County winter cold is not a hand-lifting job.

No — and be wary of anyone who does. Every garage door fails differently, so a phone price is a guess that changes at your door. Our estimates are free: a tech looks at the actual door, springs and opener, then gives you one clear price before any work starts.
