When you come home, you expect your garage door to open and close just as it always has in the past. However, you might come home one evening and find that it’s simply not working. You click the remote and nothing happens. It has a new battery, so that’s not the problem. It’s something else. However, it’s not a problem with your door opener remote.

The truth will come out though—the next time you try to operate your garage door. You will hear an irregular noise and realize that things just don't seem to be working right. When you look up, you'll notice that the lifting spring has been severed into two pieces.
