is this what normally happens?įortunately my car wasn't inside at the time, otherwise heads would be rolling, but I have no intention of paying for a new door if the suppliers were negligent in not providing an override switch in the first place. (b) Should the suppliers have fitted an override switch, i.e. Please note that remote controls using 418MHz are no longer legal in the UK.

(a) Is there any trick to getting inside without wrecking the door? My remote controls won’t open the garage door. Questions to anyone who's familiar with these doors: They seemed a bit surprised that their fitters hadn't put an electrical override switch outside the garage so that the door could be opened. I contacted the suppliers (Nationwide), who are going to come out and take a look, but I can't see that they can do anything unless they cut a hole in the door, and then replace it. Press it, and then, within 30 seconds, hold the button on the car’s remote until the garage door opener’s light flashes or until you hear the receiver click. So I'm guessing something's gone wrong with the power supply, door won't work, and can't get in there to fix it!

Ultimately, you may need a new opener, or you may need to change the frequency band at which the remote and opener communicate. Try turning off lights and wireless devices in or near the garage, to test for radio frequency interference. Even LED light bulbs near the opener can disrupt the radio signal. Remotes may also experience radio frequency interference that disrupts communication with the unit that opens your garage door. If you can close the door using the wall switch, you might just have a faulty remote control. Usually, the tiny lights on sensors are solid if they’re blinking, you can try realigning them. If you suspect that your garage door opener may have been affected by a thunderstorm or lightning, give us a call.

But if you do, following are some of the reasons your door might be jammed. Hopefully, you’ll never find yourself in this situation. At the very least, you’re going to be late to work, as you try to troubleshoot the problem.
