When a professional comes in to inspect your garage door for a tune up, they will perform a full diagnostic assessment of your garage door.
They might start off by testing the remote to make sure it’s functioning properly. If the remote is slow or glitchy, they might replace the battery or if it’s an old remote they might give you a new one. Along with the remote, they will check the keypad for functionality and for water damage. A keypad is very susceptible to water damage, especially if it hasn’t been closed properly. If this is the case, they may give you a new keypad.

Next, they will inspect the torsion spring to make sure that it is coiled properly and not too loose. Along with that they will check to make sure that there isn’t any damage to the cable. They will make sure the cable of the garage door is properly aligned in the correct track. If anything is misaligned, they can easily fix the problem.
They will also check the sensor beams to make sure that they are aligned properly. They might also test to see if there are any sensitivities with the sensors such as damage due to sunlight exposure. If they suspect there is any damage to the sensor beams, they might try and fix or replace the sensors.
