After the front door, the garage door is easily the most used door for many homeowners in the United States. Your garage keeps your vehicle safe from hail and extreme temperatures and is also a great piece of real estate for storing extra property. So, a faulty garage door or garage door lockout can be frustrating. There is no reason to panic, though. Your friends at QuickPro Locksmith have some tips on regaining access to your garage. We will go over some common reasons for a garage door lockout and mention some ways to resolve each issue. If you have any questions or concerns, or if you want to hire a qualified locksmith, then call QuickPro Locksmith to get connected with a live representative today.
Broken Motor
Most garage doors are electronically powered, allowing you to use a remote to roll the garage door open. Fortunately, these garage doors have backup manual overrides, allowing you to open and close the garage the traditional way. If your garage door’s motor or any electronic components are faulty, then make sure the track is not jammed or stuck. Then, pull the manual release cord to open or close the garage door.
Of course, you do not want to manually open and close the garage door forever. Call QuickPro Locksmith to consult with one of our staff members and see what we can do to have your garage door back in service.
Broken Lock
Opening and closing is only part of the garage door’s service. If you want a truly protected property, then the garage door must lock as well. What happens when the lock is broken, though? Whether the garage door won’t lock or won’t unlock does not matter. Both scenarios are frustrating.
If you use a padlock for your garage door, then some bolt cutters should take care of a broken lock. You will have to replace the padlock. If you have advanced locks, then the destructive entry method may not be an option as these locks have sophisticated components. High-security locks can be left to the qualified locksmiths at QuickPro Locksmith. We have the equipment and experience to replace or repair the lock without damaging the garage door.
No Keys
Frankly, this problem is better than the previous two. If you have lost, misplaced, or broken your keys, then you can just grab a spare key and go on with your day. Even if you do not have a spare, there is no reason to fret. Don’t try to break open the lock. Instead, call QuickPro Locksmith to have a locksmith pick open the lock or make some new keys from scratch.
