Common Ditec operator problems

The door will not open at all, or opens much slower than usual.
The door starts to move, then stops partway through its cycle.
The door does not close fully or does not latch at the end.
The motion sensor or the accessible push button no longer triggers the door.
The door makes new grinding, clicking or knocking noises.

If the door will not open, these checks before you call help you describe the fault. Have the address, the door location and a photo of the operator ready.
