How to fix a B&D Roll-A-Door 2 that is hard to operate in any direction?
If your garage door is hard to operate in any direction, it might be jamming in the guides. Check the following: * Guide clearances * Guides are plumb * Guide surfaces are clean and free from oil * Locking bars are the correct length * Weatherseal is correct length
Why is my B&D Garage Door Opener hard to operate in one direction?
The door might be hard to operate in one direction because the spring tension requires adjustment. If the door is hard to lift but tends to drop, increase the spring tension. If the door is hard to close but tends to rise, decrease the spring tension. Refer to step 2.9 for instructions.
What to do if my B&D Garage Door Opener rolls up crooked?
If the garage door rolls up crooked, it may be due to several reasons: the brackets are not level, the guides are not plumb, or the axle is not centered. To resolve this, ensure the brackets are level (refer to step 2.2), ensure the guides are plumb (refer to step 2.4), and centralize the axle (refer to step 2.8).
