Garage Door Not Closing? Here's Why!

This is a video dealing specifically with the issue of a door not closing all the way either in the up or down position. It happens and you can adjust the settings with the use of a simple flat head screwdriver.

This video was great. I almost called a repair man or ordered an entire new opener. Thank you so much for this video. Saved me CASH!!!

[@julesmejia1592]

I can’t thank you enough. Your video was easy to follow. My garage door is back to its excellent condition.
God bless!

[@savannahbenedetti4089]

This video was a blessing! My door would leave that 2” gap at the bottom. You are so great for posting this video. I subscribed.
Many thanks 🙏

Thank you Sam for your video. I thought the foundation of the garage was sinking. You save me from bugs invasion. My garage door is closed all the way

[@musiclvr1969]

Thank you! Like Jemini_NYC’s problem, I replaced my springs, and did everything by the book. My garage door opened flawlessly, then would only go down a foot and a half. I added, from your video, a little more force downwards, and it fixed the problem. Thanks again.

[@Jemininyc]

Thank you very much! I needed to replace the springs and thought I spun it too much. I adjusted the spring and still nothing. But the fix was this. Thank you!!

[@musiclvr1969]

Thank you Jemini, for posting. You saved me the trouble of messing with my new springs. I googled my problem, and couldn’t come up with anything similar, till I saw your reply. I appreciate it.

Kept adjusting but didn't work. I checked sensors they're Ok I've run out of time. I'll continue trying adjustments tomorrow. Thank you I appreciate very much your explanations and particularly your comment about how it's supposed to 'roll' to a close and not slam.Thanks much!

[@jerueljmartinezalicea6949]

Excelete video, lo repare!!

[@AgustinaQuinteroFelix]

Hi there. Thank you so much for sharing. Looks so easy. I had an issue my door garage dosent want to drop to close. So many times it happens. But since i rent here and the owners don't like to fix anything here. I notist the door when it gets to drop it stays open just like this video. What i hate is when is snows and gets ice gets the freezing inside and the snow comes inside the garage. I could fix it on my own but don't want to mess with something is not mine.

[@pnky2006]

Thanks mine just started this yesterday

[@apdeorian]

Thanks dude!!

[@dacon1508]

OMG yes. My garage door was going too far down causing bar to bend and garage door keeps going back up. Adjusting the close notch a little and boom it works again! Thank you!

[@MoreThanMaintenance]

Glad it helped 🙂

[@zacksgaragedoorserviceandr1208]

Great video if you want to now on Amazon you can buy two new white light lens for your garage door motor because you probably have the lift master 1260 or the LiftMaster 1265

[@JJDoesLife]

Thank you so much.

[@rickybailey4085]

Very helpful. I do have a question. When my door stops it is below the garage opening at the top but I also worry about the screw you pointed out. Would this be the same remedy you suggest?

[@Andre-Vids]

The keypad & the remote controls can open the garage door, but not closing it. Why?

[@sipandsniff1744]

THANK YOU 🙏😎🙏😎🙏😎🙏

[@MIGGYME1]

I dont see the up and down on my garage door,do all of them have them?

[@usmanhamid7908]

Thanks, fixed mine after seeing this

[@lowkey2830]

You help me thanks

[@trevonwilson1]

What if my lift master doesn't have this adjustment option?

[@YamaReal]

I adjusted but doesn’t make any difference. It’s hitting stopper when going down then stops. Pls help anyone! 😣

[@opordinaryperson6595]

Thank you

[@jlassiter9247]

I've been wondering why my garage door just kicks back up after closing... now I know. umm... where did I put that flathead screwdriver? THANK YOU!!!!😃

[@bobbyminhas244]

Hi pls help me , as i tried to open garrage door , it open little bit than close than come back to open just little bit , thats it

[@andrewm8063]

Your spring is broken. Call a company to fix it.

[@Sergeant5e]

I have already maxed out my adjuatment and still wont close.

[@polifacetica6399]

Open and closet manually without electricity?

[@traviscobb8287]

What if it acts like there’s something in the way and it goes back up

[@RCrider185]

It’s adjusted to close too much 1 full turn is 2” or the sensors (2 box’s 1’ up from floor on both sides of door are dirty lens /unplugged wires or not aimed at each other

[@48dupont]

Why did I just fix my door at 2 in the morning thanks it has been driving me craY

[@ricovelez2509]

Pulley will not open door it moves 2 feet then close

[@whiskeyricard]

Dude, you don’t have to show us opening and closing, we’re here because we’ve already seen it in our homes.

[@ricovelez2509]

Door won’t open all the way

[@Redhill407]

Uh, how can a door close too much?

[@dontworrybehappy8080]

It happens. Mine is doing that exact thing. The trolley slides almost all the way to the max distance causing the door to bow before it (the trolley) will back off. All the adjusting screws are backed all the way out. Can't find a video for that. Maybe the spring is the problem. Not sure.

[@StarGalz_6689]

Mine is set 2 inches
