- Broken springs — the door becomes inoperable and extremely dangerous to lift manually

Faqs
Common Questions From Customers
Find quick answers to the most common garage door problems, repairs, and services. Our FAQs help you understand issues faster so you can make the right decision with confidence.
What counts as an emergency garage door repair?
A garage door emergency is any situation that leaves your home unsecured, puts someone at risk of injury, or traps a vehicle inside. This includes: a door stuck open or stuck closed, a broken spring that makes the door inoperable, a door that’s come off its tracks, or a snapped cable that’s caused the door to drop or tilt. Call (205) 289-6536 and describe the situation — we’ll let you know what we can do and how quickly.
Do you offer same-day emergency garage door repair in Birmingham?
Yes, same-day emergency service is our goal for all urgent calls in Birmingham, Hoover, Vestavia Hills, Mountain Brook, and nearby areas. Call us as early in the day as possible for the best chance of same-day service. We prioritize emergency calls and work to accommodate them whenever possible.
What should I do if my garage door is stuck open?
First, don’t try to force it closed — especially if a spring or cable has broken. Secure the interior door leading from your garage to your home, move any vehicles out if possible, and call ProTouch Garage Doors at (205) 289-6536 immediately. We’ll prioritize your call.
Is it safe to use a garage door with a broken spring?
No. A door with a broken spring is not safe to operate. Without the spring’s counterbalance, the door can fall suddenly under its own weight, which can cause serious injury or damage. Do not attempt to open or close it manually, and do not use the opener. Call for emergency service.
Can emergency repairs be done outside of normal business hours?
Please call (205) 289-6536 to check current availability for after-hours or weekend emergency service. We want to help you as quickly as possible and will let you know what we can accommodate. [Note: Update this answer with verified after-hours service details once confirmed.]
