Stuck open, stuck closed, jammed mid-travel—the diagnosis flow.

Stuck closed - Broken spring (most common) - Snapped cable - Locked manually - Frozen weather seal in winter

Stuck open - Broken spring with door balanced at the top - Opener trolley disengaged - Power outage with battery backup off

Stuck mid-travel - Photo-eye misaligned - Force setting too low - Bent track or off-track door
