(16 CFR Part 1211 — Safety Standard for Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators) 1300 South and 2100 East form a commercial node, and the majority of that node is located in the Bonneville Hills neighborhood.

Do this now

  1. If the opener runs but the door won't move, pull the red release cord to disengage the opener and try lifting the door by hand — a broken opener is different from a broken door.
  2. Check both photoelectric sensors near the floor on each side of the track for dirt, a spider web or misalignment; a blocked sensor keeps a door from closing.
  3. If the door is stuck open, prop it and secure the opening for the night rather than forcing it.

In Bonneville Hills

Bonneville Hills is a predominantly single-family residential neighborhood closest to Foothill Village, a semi-regional shopping center, and its streetscapes resemble older East Bench neighborhoods, with uniform home setbacks and extensive street trees. (Bonneville Hills Neighborhood | Council District 6 (Salt Lake City)) The Bonneville Hills neighborhood consists of predominantly single-family homes built during the middle of the 20th century. (East Bench Master Plan (Salt Lake City Planning Division, 2017)) The Salt Lake City segment of the Wasatch fault generates large earthquakes of about magnitude 7 on average every 1,350 years, and the most recent was about 1,300 years ago. (Maps Show Potential Geologic Effects of a Magnitude 7 Earthquake | Utah Geological Survey) A brick building with rows of bricks turned endways every five to six rows may be unreinforced masonry, a pattern once used to add strength before steel reinforcing was required. (Unreinforced Masonry | Earthquakes (Utah Division of Emergency Management)) Utah updated its building codes in the 1970s to outlaw construction of new unreinforced masonry buildings, so URM buildings are typically older structures.

Questions people ask

Is a stuck garage door in Bonneville Hills more likely in winter?

Cold can stiffen the opener's gears and tighten metal tracks enough to bind a door that ran fine in warmer weather, so a winter garage door call is often a track or roller problem rather than the opener itself.
