If the spring is intact and only the opener is broken, the red emergency-release cord lets you lift the door manually; if the spring is broken, do not pull the release. Call us - car-trapped-inside is a true emergency and we dispatch within hours.

Yes. Same-day, evening, weekend, and after-hours dispatch is available for true emergencies - and we don't bill an after-hours premium for genuine emergencies like an off-track door, a broken spring with the car trapped, or a commercial dock down.
